The winner of the 12.5 km mass start race at the World Cup in Antholz is Darya Domrcheva. After two missed targets at the beginning of the race she was only at the 26th place. Through intense concentration and the desire to win Darya Domrcheva remained flawless and could fight her way to the fore.

She seems to like such catch-up races and said at the press conference: "It looks like I’m even more motivated after a bad start." And so she overtook Anastasiya Kuzmina and Magdalena Neuner, who achieved the second and third place.

Immediately after the race Domrcheva Darya says: "I haven’t talked to my coach yet, the race way too frenzied. But he hugged me and I could read in his eyes that he was very happy."
