Pidruchnyi won the gold medal at the Summer Biathlon World Championships on the Flag Day of Ukraine. Video
Ukrainian biathlete Dmytro Pidruchnyi won the super sprint race at the 2024 Summer World Championships, which are being held in Otepaa, Estonia, on our country's Flag Day. Our compatriot covered the 7.5-kilometer course with four firing lines in 19 minutes and 19.5 seconds.
Pidruchnyi failed to hit only one target out of 20. This did not prevent him from being the first to finish the course and win the gold medal. As he was finishing the course, the 32-year-old from Ternopil pointed to the flag of Ukraine on his helmet, dedicating his victory to our country.

It is worth noting that this is Pidruchnyi's first gold medal at the Summer Biathlon World Championships. Before that, he only took silver in the mixed relay at the 2016 championships.
