Abstract
- The article discusses the dominance of host Norway in the FIS World Nordic Ski Championship. It cites the strong performance of the Norwegians skiers on Holmenkollen Hill after a slow start at the men's 30-kilometer cross-country race and Russia's strong showing in the women's cross-country events. Norway's top performers include ski jumper Bjorn Wirkola, winner of the Holmenkollen title, and Gjermund Eggen, winner of three cross-country events.
