Absolutely heartbreaking news from the biathlon world—Norway’s rising star Sivert Bakken, the reigning European champ and a true force in the mass start, has passed away at just 27. The “comeback kid” had just returned from a tough battle with myocarditis and was prepping for his Olympic debut. Tributes are pouring in from teammates like Sturla Lægreid and rivals like Tommy Giacomel, showing how much Bakken meant to the sport. Gone way too soon, but never forgotten. #Sports #Biathlon #SivertBakken
