OBERSTDORF, Germany (Reuters) - Therese Johaug's thunderous third leg set Norway up to win gold in the women's 4x5km relay at the FIS Ski World Championships on Friday, with the Russian Ski Federation team coming second and Finland taking bronze while Sweden's hotly-tipped team flopped.
Cousins Tiril and Heidi Weng skied the first two legs in classic style to hand Johaug, who had already claimed two individual gold medals in Oberstdorf, a lead of 2.6 seconds at the halfway point ahead of the two freestyle legs.
