Klebo won the 20 km pursuit in the second stage, which takes place in Oberstdorf, Germany. This is the fourth straight win for him in the multi-day event.
Russian skiers Sergei Ustyugov and Alexander Bolshunov, who will miss this international season due to sanctions against Russian and Belarusian athletes, have achieved five straight wins. Sergei was on the wave of success in the 2016/2017 season, and Alexander in the 2020/2021 season.
If we talk about the total number of victories in the Tour de Ski, then Klebo won the 15th race. The Norwegian is the most successful skier in this indicator. He edged out compatriot Petter Nortug (13 wins) and female leaders Teresa Johaug of Norway and Justina Kowalczyk of Poland (14 wins each). Meanwhile, this is only the fourth “Tour” in Klebo’s career.
