The Scandinavian Cup in Finland and the national cup in Falun this weekend were his last chances to show results.
Then Burman caught a cold.
Therefore he does not see himself as an Olympic skier in Val di Fiemme in February.
I dare to say that. There are no other selection competitions for me in the near future. Of course it's boring, but you just have to accept it. What should you do? Burman tells Expressen.
Sweden has eight Olympic spots in the men's long-distance events. So far, Edvin Anger, William Poromaa, Anton Grahn and Alvar Myhlback have secured Olympic participation.
It is unclear whether Sweden will use all the places.
No, it's not obvious that we can use them, because SOK (the Swedish Olympic Committee) also has a say in the team. And if they don't think the skiers are up to the task, then we won't get eight places, says Anders Byström, the Swedish Ski Association's national team manager, to SVT.
