Records
Wierer's record speaks for itself: she is the only Italian woman to win multiple World Championship golds in a single edition, and one of the few biathletes ever to win World Cup overall titles in back-to-back seasons. Her longevity and consistency across four Olympic Games and over a decade at the top make her a true legend of the sport.
