According to unofficial data, Khrystyna Dmytrenko has already earned 9400 euros in prize money at this World Championships. This is more than all the other biathletes of the Ukrainian national team combined.

Commenting on her success, Dmytrenko could hardly contain her emotions.

"To be honest, I'm shocked. I think everyone is shocked. These are my first four zeros in my career. I didn't set any goals. I wanted to work in a working style at a distance, not to the maximum, to distribute my strength correctly so that I would be enough,Suspilne.Sport quoted the Ukrainian as saying.

Mykola Zots, the head coach of the Ukrainian national team, is also satisfied with the result.

"For the first time I can say that we have a biathlete. It's the first time I've said this, although she has been around before. I can say today that we are building a new team for the new Olympic cycle. This is a biathlete of a completely different formation, thinking, and approach. I can say that today," Zots said in an interview with Suspilne.
