Sundling crushed everyone in the qualifiers.
Behind her were two Swedish teammates: Moa Lundgren in second and Maja Dahlqvist in third. Moa Ilar also advanced from the qualifiers.
But from the quarter-finals onwards, it was all about Jonna Sundling.
In the final the 31-year-old immediately set the tone and easily took the victory ahead of Germany's Coletta Rydzek and Maja Dahlqvist.
“A little difficult”
The victory was the best kind of message ahead of the Olympics next month. Sundling admits that the Olympics are very much on her mind at the moment.
"I just try to be here and now. But I think a lot about the Olympics, of course. This was good preparation for it," Sundling says on Viaplay's broadcast.
Sundling dominated the Tour de Ski earlier in the season and that boost seems to have had the desired effect. The victory was Sundling's third in the World Cup this season and her 15th in her career.
Maja Dahlqvist's third place was her third podium finish this season. But it was not entirely certain that she would be able to keep it, after the jury reviewed an incident from the final where Italian Iris de Martin Pinter fell.
A long review later, it was determined that Dahlqvist was not to blame for the incident and was allowed to retain third place.
"Everything is peaceful and happy. It's nice to get out of the jury room; that was the toughest part today," Dahlqvist says after the announcement.
Moa Ilar came fifth.
Häggström washed up
On the men's side, the Swedes, who are fighting for the last two Olympic tickets, also qualified well. All six skaters advanced from the prologue.
Then it got even tougher. Johan Häggström had good pressure on his skis and looked to be the only Swede to advance to the semi-finals.
But shortly after finishing second in the semi-final behind Finn Lauri Vourinen, the Swede was eliminated.
The reason was an obstruction he caused in the last curve before the finish line.
"It's brutally tough. It feels sad."
"I have the Olympics in mind when I go. I want to show that I'm a good skier, and it's sad when I don't get the chance," Häggström says.
The victory on the men's side went to Norway's 20-year-old super talent Lars Heggen. The Norwegian's first World Cup victory of his career.
