Moments after her victory in the women’s 15km individual, and becoming the first athlete from Belarus to win multiple gold medals at an Olympic Winter Games, Darya Domracheva looked into a television camera and sent a simple message out to the world, “Happy Valentine’s Day,” as she smiled and waved her hands to the world-wide TV audience. Switzerland’s Selina Gasparin took silver, while Domracheva’s Belorussian teammate Nadezhda Skardino finished third.
Domracheva’s victory was her second gold medal at Sochi 2014, following her success in the 10km pursuit. The 27-year-old’s performance inspired Skardino, whose bronze medal gave Belarus a first Winter Olympic podium with two athletes on it. Gasparin’s silver was Switzerland’s first ever Olympic medal in biathlon. Many of the pre-race favorites disappointed, including Czech Gabriela Soukalová, Norway’s Tora Berger, Finn Kaisa Mäkäräinen, and the German biathletes as a group.
