Davidova missed one shot on the prone shoot, costing her a chance at the win, while France’s Julia Simon also missed once on her way to third.
The consolation for Simon will be that this second podium of the season is enough to go top of the overall World Cup standings at this early stage in the campaign.
The action in Hochfilzen continues on Friday in the men’s sprint with the women racing again on Saturday in the pursuit.
