Statistics. Oberhof Is the Worst Place for Shooting

Weather conditions had a great influence on the results of both sprints in Oberhof. Many athletes have made so many misses. It's interesting that the sprints are not even in the top 30 races of the last 17 years with the worst shooting.

We decided to check which venues and races had the worst shooting.

The last column in the following table shows an average number of misses of one athlete per shooting. For example, on March 16 at Holmenkollen the athletes missed 1.45 times per 5 shots. We considered the results of the top 30 athletes in the sprints, individuals, and pursuits.
