DAVOS (VG) Has the world ever seen a more superb skier, regardless of sex, than Therese Johaug (27)? No, I think the national team.
The machine of Dalsbygda operates a private sport currently. Saturday she needed only two kilometers to smash the competition in the 15th kilometer of the idyllic Alpine scenery in Switzerland.
– My best race in Davos ever. I am very happy now, my form is very good for the time, what more can I say, says Therese Johaug after the impressive victory – and laughs in front of a fairly large press turnout in Davos.

Probably the best-superior skier
The national team coach Egil Kristiansen can not think of any country skiers, regardless of gender, who have been more sovereign than Therese Johaug is the race distance right now.
– I do not have a full overview of the history, but I think maybe not it have been someone who has been so superb. I doubt very strongly about it. Victory difference is very big. She is completely sovereign, says Kristiansen told VG.
– It was the kind spoken But that said, I feel raw. I have never gone so well on skis before. And never felt in better shape. Why is it like that? That’s because of a lot of practice over many years. I’ve been really focus over many years on small details to get to things. Then it’s fun to succeed, says Johaug VG.

Heidi Weng decided to go out one minute ahead Johaug to go his own race, without being disturbed by reports of how much she was after world number one way. But already by crossing 2.2 km, it was clear that this would be another parade marched for Dalsbygda girl.
When it boasts namely already full 20 seconds down to Enebakk girl. And still remained 12.8 km of the relatively light trail in Davos.

Six kilometers later the gap was 44 seconds. And when the runners passed 12.2 kilometers showed television pictures that Johaug flew from Weng and it boasts well over a minute between the two Norwegian competitors. At the finish the gap was 1 minute and 15 seconds.
Flugstad Østberg dominating
– It’s phenomenal how she goes about the day. She is simply absolutely unbeatable. An adventurous race, exclaimed NRK commentator Jann Post.
– Heidi has not screwed up, but Therese go with a completely different speed. There has perhaps never been a cross country woman who is so superior compared to competition as it is Therese now. It must be depressing for others to know that they do not have a chance, supplemented sideman and expert commentator Torgeir Bjorn.
Johaug won the World Cup race 1.10,3 minutes ahead Ingvild Flugstad Ostberg. Then followed Hedi Weng, Astrid Uhrenholdt Jacobsen and Kari Øyre SLINDE.
– Fuck Cool! It was really fun. I had never thought I would go so well at this distance here in Davos. Miles behind Therese, but still a victory for me. My goal has been to get on the podium at a distansrenn this year, says a lubricating bland Flugstad Østberg.
– It’s pretty wild to be number five in the world. I do not really understand that it is possible and have no explanation for it. And it’s very funny that Therese is doing so well. She sets the standard for the rest. Perhaps she could put in a tikilosvekt? It kune be fun, says SLINDE and laughs.

is mainstream: Five Norwegian athletes finished in the first five places, but only Therese Johaug, Ingvild Flugstad Ostberg (left) and Heidi Weng got podium. Then followed Astrid Uhrenholdt Jacobsen and Kari Øyre SLINDE.
But skidronningen is keen to stress that it will fluctuate during the season.
– I know it’s going to be less distance. It turns quickly to the top, and already in the Tour de Ski, many sprint races and bonus points, says Johaug.
Best not Norwegian girl was Finnish Kerttu Niskanen sixth, beaten with 1.40,6 of Johaug.
– I felt I opened sensible and walked a fine run. But I think there are great distances. Last year was not so. So I wish the distance was halved. It’s a little scary, I think that says Weng.
