Jenny Lindbäck (born August 30, 1987 in Helgum as Jenny Jonsson, Sollefteå municipality ) is a former Swedish biathlete .
Jonsson began biathlon at the age of 13, after having competed in junior ski races in Sweden a few years earlier. At the beginning of 2004, she made her first international appearance at the Junior World Championships in Haute-Maurienne and finished fifth in the relay. The following year she reached 14th place in the individual race of the Junior World Championships in Kontiolahti . At the end of 2007 Jonsson played a total of four competitions in the European Junior Cup and won the sprint race in Torsby on November 30, 2007 after a faultless shooting performance . A day later, she confirmed her success despite seven mistakes with third place in the pursuit.
Jonsson celebrated her World Cup debut in the 2007/2008 season in Pyeongchang in February 2008. After ranking 59 in the sprint, the pursuit race ended with a lap. In the last two World Cups in Chanty-Mansiysk and Oslo , she was used again in the sprint, but did not get beyond placements in the back field.
At the Summer Biathlon Cup in Östersund at the end of August 2008, Jonsson won the sprint race and was third in the pursuit. Jonsson achieved her first World Cup points in the 2008/2009 season with 18th place in the singles in Vancouver-Whistler . In her first appearance as the starting runner of the Swedish women's relay in the 2010/2011 season , she won on January 6, 2011 in Oberhof together with Anna Carin Zidek , Anna Maria Nilsson and Helena Ekholm .
