Tour de Ski: Stage victory for Rønning
This means that Cologna is in the overall lead of the Tour, and that Northug will start 1.22 seconds behind leader Cologna, heading into Sunday's decider, the 10km pursuit, the last leg of the Tour de Ski. On the women's 10km Tour de Ski classic style race in Val di Fiemme, Norway's Marit Bjørgen Italy lost on the last stretch to chief rival Justyna Kowalczyk of Poland, who thereby got back to the top of the Tour's overall ranking. Sweden's Chaarlotte Kalla placed third. Kowalczyk will now head into the final stage of the Tour, Sunday’s 9km free style race, with an 11 second lead. (NRK/Aftenposten)
