The women’s individual 15 km was postponed from 14 February to 15 February due to high winds at the Alpensia Biathlon Centre. The 15 km is seen as the classical women’s distance. The winner was Sweden’s Hanna Öberg in a major upset. The two-time 2016 World Junior Champion had never had a podium place at the World Cup, but missed no shooting targets to help her win gold. The silver medal went to Slovakia’s Anastasia Kuzmina, who had the fastest ski time but missed two targets. The bronze medal went to Germany’s Laura Dahlmeier, who won her third individual medal in Korea, and had the third fastest ski time. Norway’s Tiril Eckhoff had the second fastest ski time, but four missed targets left her in 23rd place. The women were greeted by some of the warmest temperatures of the PyeongChang Olympics, almost reaching 0º C.
