Michael Genz lives in Oberaudorf and started for Immergrün Aising . The chemist was trained by Hans-Ulrich Spengler and Sepp Robeis. He first took part in the summer biathlon world championships in Jablonec nad Nisou in 2002 and immediately won the bronze medal in the sprint behind Marek Matiaško and Maksim Malenkih . It was until the 2008 Summer Biathlon World Championships in Haute-Maurienne that Niklas Heyser won another medal, not only the first, but also the only medal for a German summer biathlete for years. In the pursuit, Genz fell back to sixth place, with the season he was seventh.
