In a remarkable display at the World Cup sprint in Davos, Jonna Sundling and Johannes Hösflot Klæbo both demonstrated their dominance, with Sundling earning praise from Norwegian ski legend Marit Bjørgen. Bjørgen hailed Sundling as the best sprinter in the world at present, acknowledging her incredible abilities on the course.

Klæbo, while agreeing with Bjørgen's sentiments about Sundling's performance, humorously remarked, "Maybe she should compete in the men's class with how well she's doing right now, so we can put her in her place," showcasing the friendly rivalry and sportsmanship among these elite athletes.

The recognition from a seasoned competitor like Bjørgen highlights the impressive standing Sundling has achieved in the world of cross-country skiing, and it sets a thrilling stage for the ongoing competitions ahead.
