Good News for Ingrid Landmark Tandrevold: Lisa Vitozzi Will Miss the World Cup Opening in Kontiolahti

Good news for Ingrid Landmark Tandrevold: Italian star Lisa Vitozzi will miss the World Cup opening in Kontiolahti scheduled for November 30. Vitozzi, who beat Tandrevold by 47 points and clinched the overall World Cup in 2023, is facing difficulties due to back pain. The first race for Vitozzi in the calendar will therefore take place in Obertilliach from December 13-15.

This absence may provide Tandrevold with a significant opportunity to improve her standing in the competition, as Vitozzi's withdrawal further complicates the field for the upcoming events.
