Sick Norwegian
“Hopeless!” Last year’s Tour winner gives up
Last year's winner Harald Oestberg Amundsen has withdrawn from the Tour de Ski on the rest day. This was confirmed by the world federation FIS. According to the Norwegian, the situation is currently "hopeless".
The 26-year-old told the local media that he woke up on Thursday morning "with a burning throat and a headache". A continuation of the stage race was therefore "hopeless". Amundsen won both the Tour and the overall cross-country World Cup last winter. He is currently in third place in the Tour.
Amundsen had triumphed in the two sections on New Year's Eve and New Year's Day in Dobbiaco. In third place overall, he was 57 seconds behind his leading compatriot Johannes Klaebo. Austrian Mika Vermeulen is fourth.
