31-year-old followed up last weekend's World Championship gold on the Olympic distance by taking a new victory, this time on the short distance during the World Cup in Swiss Lenzerheide on Friday.

I have done pretty good results lately. It's really wonderful, says Rissveds in the official victory interview, reports SVT.

Aside from the World Championship gold – the first in her career – on the Olympic distance, Rissveds also took World Championship silver on the short distance.

The World Cup in Lenzerheide continues on Sunday with the Olympic distance.
