Stanzin Lundup Finishes 104th in 10km Cross-Country Skiing at Milano Cortina Olympics

• India's Stanzin Lundup finished 104th out of 111 athletes in the 10km freestyle cross-country skiing event at the Milano Cortina Winter Olympics in Tesero, Italy.
• Lundup, an Indian army man, clocked 28 minutes 26.7 seconds, placing 7 minutes 50.5 seconds behind Norwegian gold medalist Johannes Hoesflot Klaebo.
• Klaebo secured his eighth Winter Olympics gold, sharing the all-time record with three other retired Norwegian athletes.
• Lundup's selection by an IOA-appointed ad hoc committee was controversial, with the Delhi High Court noting another skier, Manjeet, was more meritorious.
• The 27-year-old is the fifth cross-country skier to represent India at the Winter Olympics, with India's campaign concluding with Mohammad Arif Khan's event.
