Controversy

The "last minute changes" introduced by the organizers of 2013–14 edition of Tour de Ski resulted in controversies regarding the balance between the free and classical techniques in the competition. Some people, including the four times winner of Tour de Ski and Olympic Champion Justyna Kowalczyk, resigned from participation in protest against changes excessively favoring freestyle competitors.
