This week’s fans’ vote had a clear winner — and it wasn’t just one athlete, but four. The Estonian men’s relay team captured hearts after fighting for the podium from the opening leg and delivering their best World Cup relay result since 2003 with a remarkable fifth place. With two team members not even born the last time Estonia finished that high, the fans’ choice celebrates a truly historic moment.

They were joined in the vote by standout performances across the field: Lucie Charvatova delivered a career-first perfect relay shoot for Czechia, Isak Frey confirmed his status as the top U23 with his maiden World Cup podium, and Hanna Oeberg shone in Ruhpolding with a sprint win and a pursuit runner-up.
