Cross-country skier Teresa Stadlober has recently started sleeping regularly in the cellar of her parents' house. The Salzburg native told the "Krone" newspaper what it's all about. On Saturday, the Olympic bronze medal winner from Beijing 2022 hopes to be successful in the 50-kilometer classic in Oslo.

No, Teresa Stadlober is not the black sheep of the family. And no, she hasn't done anything wrong because she has been sleeping in the family's own cellar for several months now.
