I was not nervous. I shot fast and do not know why I had two mistakes in the final stage. One would have been okay because I was confident of my shape and knew I could keep my advantage.

My shape is good, but I also know that Carl Johan is a good sprinter, so that is why I decided to attack earlier and not later.

Fourcade said the two Gold medals were: more than I ever expected in my life! Now my main goal is to keep the Yellow Bib until the end of the competitions in Khanty Mansiysk.

I felt good when I went out for the last loop. My goal was to have high speed for the whole final loop. But I had absolutely no chance when he attacked; he was skiing so fast. At that point I had to put all of my mental effort into it to try to stay close to him. It is so hard when someone is skiing so fast; I cannot ski that fast!

then with a big laugh, he added, Martin was so fast today, but wait for the relay!

Bergman stating that two medals: were beyond my expectations; a dream come true…a dream come true.

I knew that my start position was not so good. But when I saw the wind as we were going to the starting line, I felt good about that. I like to shoot in the wind and then felt I felt I could do it…The medal was a combination of really good skis and shooting well.
