Axel Teichmann (born July 14, 1979 in Ebersdorf , Gera district ) is a former German cross-country skier and sports soldier in the Bundeswehr . As a two-time world champion, he is the most successful German cross-country skier at Nordic World Ski Championships.

Career

First beginnings

Growing up in the Thuringian Slate Mountains , Teichmann, like many children and young people in this region, came into contact with Nordic skiing at an early age. After attending school in Lobenstein , he switched to the sports grammar school in Oberhof in 1993 , where, in addition to cross-country skiing, he initially also did ski jumping and Nordic combined . After graduating from high school , which he passed in 1998 with a grade of 1.2, Teichmann joined the German Armed Forces as a sports soldier ( Oberhof sports promotion group ) and holds the rank of sergeant major .

First international assignments

After several national titles at youth and junior championships, Teichmann also caused a sensation at his first international appearance, the 1997 Junior World Championships in Canmore , with sixth place over 10 kilometers classic and ninth place over 30 kilometers freestyle . In the 1997/98 season he reached second place in the overall ranking of the Junior Continental Cup, but was unable to confirm the good results of the previous year at the Junior World Championships in Pontresina, Switzerland and finished 10th over 10 kilometers of freestyle and over 30 kilometers classic 16th place. With the German season he was sixth. Teichmann had his first start in the senior sector at the Continental Cup in Brusson in December 1998, where he showed his great potential with first place over 15 kilometers classic and second place over 10 kilometers freestyle. As a result, he was nominated for his first appearance in the cross-country skiing world cup . At the Sprint World Cup in Garmisch-Partenkirchen , he promptly qualified for the finals and was 25th to collect his first World Cup points. So it came as no surprise that Teichmann was able to win the gold medal over 10 kilometers at the Junior World Championships in 1999 in Saalfelden, Austria, ahead of Mathias Algren and Jens Filbrich from Sweden . With the German team he was able to repeat this success in the relay competition. After these successes, Teichmann was used again in the World Cup and was 17th in the 10 kilometer freestyle in Seefeld . Since German cross-country skiing was in a crisis at the end of the 1990s, the successful Junior Teichmann was also nominated for the 1999 Senior World Championships in Ramsau am Dachstein . Over 10 kilometers, he finished 35th as the best German cross-country skier. With the German team, he just missed his first medal in fourth.

In the 1999/00 season, Teichmann became a permanent member of the German World Cup team. In his first year he achieved notable successes such as eighth place in the sprint competition in Stockholm . Teichmann then made it to the top of the world in the following World Cup season when he finished fifth in the 20-kilometer pursuit competition in Brusson and sprinted to sixth place in the sprint in Engelberg . At the Nordic World Ski Championships in 2001 in Lahti , Finland , he took 14th place both over the 15 kilometers classic and in the pursuit competition. While training, he collided with a supervisor during the World Championships and injured his arm, so that he could not be nominated for the relay that later won silver. At the end of the season he placed 24th for the first time among the top 30 athletes of the overall World Cup. The 2001/02 Olympic season was like a roller coaster for Teichmann. Good results such as fifth and sixth place over 15 kilometers classic and freestyle in Davos and Brusson were followed by places far outside the World Cup points such as 50th place over 30 kilometers classic in Val di Fiemme . So the results he was able to achieve at the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City were rather mediocre. He took 19th place over 30 kilometers of freestyle (mass start), 14th place over 15 kilometers classic and 38th place in the pursuit competition. He was unable to take part in the sprint competition due to an illness. After national coach Jochen Behle had not nominated him for the relay competition, Teichmann thought at short notice of ending his sporting career and devoting himself more intensively to his studies.

International success from 2002

The 2002/03 season showed that the decision against studying was the right one. Teichmann, who was now concentrating more intensely on his sport, made it onto the podium for the first time right at the beginning of the 15-kilometer World Cup season in Kuusamo with third place. Less than a month later, his first World Cup victory followed in the pursuit competition in Ramsau am Dachstein . This was the first World Cup victory for a German in 13 years. In Kawgolowo, too, he climbed the podium in third in the 10 kilometer freestyle. Teichmann, for example, was one of the favorites on the classic technique distances to the Nordic World Ski Championships in 2003 in Val di Fiemme. In his favorite discipline, Teichmann achieved a success that a German cross-country skier had last achieved in 1974. 29 years after Gerhard Grimmer , Teichmann won the world title ahead of Jaak Mae and Frode Estil . He also crossed the finish line with the top group in the pursuit competition, but had to be content with fifth place after a fall on the last climb in the final sprint. In the relay competition he won the silver medal together with Jens Filbrich , Andreas Schlütter and René Sommerfeldt . Final runner Teichmann only had to admit defeat to the multiple Olympic and world champion Thomas Alsgaard from Norway in the final sprint. He finished his best season so far in fourth place in the overall World Cup. Also in the 2003-04 season mixed Teichmann in the world rankings with. He won his second World Cup victory in the Kuusamo pursuit competition and two other podium finishes in Beitostølen and Ramsau. With the German team he also won three relay competitions in the World Cup. In the overall World Cup, which was won by a German cross-country skier for the first time in René Sommerfeldt, he finished fifth in the top ten of the best cross-country skiers of the entire winter.

The 2004/05 season should be the Oberhofer's most successful World Cup season . Right at the beginning of winter, he won the classic 15-kilometer distance in Gällivare and Kuusamo . In addition, there were another five top ten placements, so that he came to the Nordic World Ski Championships 2005 in Oberstdorf as a World Cup leader and top favorite . Shortly before the World Championships, however, he fell ill with a severe cold, so that he could not contest the first competitions in full possession of his strength. It was only shortly before the race that he decided to take part in the 15-kilometer freestyle competition, which he finished seventh as the defending champion. In the pursuit competition he had to let go of the classic technique early on and finished the competition in 30th place. Only in the relay competition did Teichmann regain his form. As the final runner, Tobias Angerer , who was about one and a half minutes behind the leading Norwegians in fourth position, sent him out on the track Russia even advanced to silver. One day later, Teichmann showed that he had regained his strength in the team sprint, where he and Jens Filbrich also sprinted the silver medal behind Norway. The cold that Teichmann caught before the World Championships forced him to take another break from competition, so that he missed seven World Cups and his lead in the overall standings was getting smaller. For the last race in Falun , however, he started again and with seventh place in the pursuit competition confidently secured victory in the overall World Cup ahead of the French Vincent Vittoz .

New start and end of career

The 2005/06 season began - as the last season had ended - with Teichmann's illness, so that he could not take part in the World Cup opener in Düsseldorf . A second place behind Tobias Angerer in the pursuit competition in Vernon , Canada, was followed by placements around 30th place and further breaks in competition due to health problems. Shortly before the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin , Teichmann was back in ascending shape with 13th place over 15 kilometers in Davos . But shortly before the start of the Olympic competitions, he was again plagued by health problems. Due to an acute inflammation of the hair roots on his left thigh , which expanded into an abscess and caused fever and chills in Teichmann, he had to undergo an operation and could not take part in any of the competitions. After the successful operation, Teichmann traveled to Turin to give his teammates technical and moral support off the track. Even after the end of the season, Teichmann's streak of bad luck did not end. In June 2006 he tore several ligaments and tore the ankle capsule while playing football , and was initially only able to train with a special wheelchair . Despite the serious injury in summer, he started the 2006/07 season with three podium finishes and was one of the favorites of the Tour de Ski, which was held for the first time . When his teammate Tobias Angerer, who was also one of the favorites as the overall World Cup winner last season, fell on the second stage in Oberstdorf, Teichmann dropped back and led Angerer back to the top. While Angerer was able to triumph at the end of the tour, Teichmann had to cope with a setback due to illness and did not start the third stage due to another flu-like infection. At the World Cup in Otepää , he made an impressive classic return with a victory over 15 kilometers. In his first appearance at the Nordic World Ski Championships in Sapporo in 2007 , he just missed a medal in the team sprint together with Tobias Angerer in fourth place. One day later, however, the duo can celebrate a double victory in the pursuit competition. Teichmann had the bigger reserves and defeated Angerer in the sprint; He was the first German cross-country skier to win two world championship titles. The 15 kilometer freestyle competition was characterized by heavy snowfall, which particularly affected the group of the best runners. As the best runner in the rear group of starters, Angerer took third place. Teichmann, who actually finished fifth, was awarded fourth place after the subsequent disqualification of the Austrian Johannes Eder due to a lifelong doping ban confirmed by the CAS 2008 . Even in the final relay competition, only fourth place remained for the German relay. Even during the season, Teichmann often complained of back pain and had himself examined more closely after the world championships. A moderately severe herniated disc was diagnosed, so he had an operation before the end of the season.

At the beginning of the 2007/08 season , Teichmann had to cancel the World Cup opener in Düsseldorf due to a cold. But already at the second World Cup station in Beitostølen he showed that he had overcome the herniated disc and won over 15 kilometers of freestyle ahead of Lukáš Bauer . In Davos he celebrated his second win of the season in a classic way over 15 kilometers, so that he started his second Tour de Ski in second place in the overall World Cup standings behind Bauer . At the prologue, he managed to live up to his role as a favorite with second place. But in the subsequent pursuit competition, he fell back to 32nd place. On the fourth stage he was able to work his way back to tenth place, but fell during the race and injured his thumb. Handicapped by the injury, he then supported René Sommerfeldt in the further course of the tour and finished in 13th place himself. The rest of the season was also rather disappointing for Teichmann. At the World Cup final , which was held for the first time , he was unable to compete due to renewed health problems and ended the season prematurely. The 2008/09 season also started rather mixed with places well outside the top ten. At the World Cup in Davos, however, he was able to fight for second place behind Johan Olsson over his favorite distance of 15 kilometers . And at the start of the Tour de Ski 2008/09 he won the prologue in his hometown Oberhof with an impressive performance, clearly ahead of Dario Cologna . He was also able to convince with second place in the subsequent pursuit competition. After two more victories on the fourth stage over 15 kilometers classic and the sixth stage over 20 kilometers classic (mass start) he went on to the last stage in second behind the leading Swiss Dario Cologna. However, he did not succeed in endangering Cologna. Instead, he lost his second place in the sprint against the Norwegian Petter Northug and finished the tour in third. At the Nordic World Ski Championships 2009 in Liberec , Axel Teichmann and Tobias Angerer won the silver medal in the team sprint behind the team Johan Kjølstad and Ola Vigen Hattestad from Norway. Together with Tobias Angerer, Franz Göring and Jens Filbrich , he won silver in the 4 × 10 km race, just beaten in the final sprint by Petter Northug.

The duel between Axel Teichmann and Petter Northug was continued at the 2010 Olympic Games in Vancouver . Teichmann started the team sprint with Tim Tscharnke . Before the last change, Tim Tscharnke was able to clearly pull away and handed over to Teichmann with a lead of 2.6 seconds. However, Northug managed to play his sprint strength again and overtake Teichmann shortly before the finish. Teichmann was just able to assert himself against the Russian Alexej Petuchow and secure the silver medal for the German team. In the traditional 50-kilometer race in the classic technique, Teichmann showed an extraordinary performance. He managed to break away from the top group on the last climb. Northug was able to reduce the deficit in the downhill again and, like a few days before, won the duel on the home straight against Teichmann in the team sprint. Axel Teichmann is the first German cross-country skier ever since Gert-Dietmar Klause to win an Olympic medal on the 50 kilometers. At the beginning of the 2009/10 season , Teichmann could only post moderate results. But already at the Tour de Ski 2009/10 he impressed with two third places at the start. On the last stage, however, he dropped from third to seventh overall. He finished the season 37th in the overall World Cup. At the start of the 2010/11 season , Teichmann impressed in fifth place over 10 kilometers in a classic way in Kuusamo . At temperatures down to minus 22 degrees, however, he complained of lung problems after the race and canceled the further starts in Kuusamo, but still caught a cold which forced him to take a longer break from the competition. At the 2011 World Championships in Oslo, he won the bronze medal with the German relay.

In the years that followed, Teichmann was rarely able to achieve top placements. On December 30, 2011, he won the pursuit race in Oberhof at the Tour de Ski . In February 2013 he finished third in the team sprint in Sochi and fourth in the 15 km freestyle race in Davos . At the 2013 World Championships in Val di Fiemme , he finished ninth over 15 kilometers in free style. At the end of his career, Teichmann took part in the 2014 Olympic Games in Sochi. Over 15 kilometers in classic style, with eighth place he once again managed to place in the top ten.
