During the post-race interviews Stolz said, “I wanted this Sprint World title, but it doesn’t look like it’s going to be [that way] so far.

“I just have to take it one at the time and see what I can get done.” 

De Boo stands atop the leaderboard at 67.040 and Stolz is at 67.700.

De Boo took first in the 500m and 1000m on Thursday and Stolz took second in both races.
