Johan Olav Botn left out of Norway's mixed relay team at the Olympics

Johan Olav Botn will not be included on the Norwegian biathlon team for Sunday's mixed relay at the Olympics.

The 26-year-old had his big breakthrough this season and is fourth in the World Cup, but has had health problems lately.

Norway will field Vetle Sjåstad Christiansen, Maren Kirkeeide Hjelmeseth, Karoline Knotten, and Martin Uldal in what will be the first Olympic race at the biathlon arena in Antholtz.

Sweden will present its team on Saturday.
