Olga Vilukhina stunned her rivals and fans alike with a silver medal in the 7.5km sprint race.

      Suffering from overweight after a drug course, she was able to regain shape and come second.

      The medal is widely seen as important for the women’s team after a series of doping scandals on the eve of the Sochi Olympics.

      In one of the interviews, Vilukhina confessed she had promised to buy a car for her coach and would certainly deliver.

      “He’d love a Jaguar,” the biathlete told sports.ru.
