Rain was the Swedish medal at the World Figure Skating Championships in Denmark.
As expected, Tove Alexanderson won the gold on the women’s side.
On the men’s side, newcomers August Mullen and Jonathan Gustafsson took silver and bronze.
The Swedish World Cup gold was in the relay race on Sunday.
Tonight had another success for blue and yellow in the knockout race when August Mullen took the silver and Jonathan Gustafsson the bronze when Matthias Kippors of Switzerland took the gold.
Incredibly good for beginners. So much fun with two Swedish men’s medals, it’s a major international achievement by Mollén, says SVT expert Mats Troing.
‘He’s totally sick’
And for August Mollén, it might have been great to get the medal. He fell head over heels in the semi-finals, but despite this he came back and managed to win the silver medal.
– He’s quite sick, Matthias was too strong in the end so there was nothing to do for him. The SVT Silver Medalist says it’s great to be successful, I’m so proud.
In the women’s final, the Swede was more at the starting line toph alexandersonSarah Hagstrom and Lena Strand.
‘flowing through this’
The latter came in third in the semi-finals, but after Alexandra Hornick incorrectly stamped, she was disqualified and Strand took last place.
And in the final, the pre-favourite Alexanderson showed that she is in a class of her own. The 29-year-old crushed his opponents, winning the final by 15 seconds and winning his eleventh consecutive gold medal at the World Cup.

Sarah Hagstrom took fourth place, while Lena Strand took sixth place.
