The Israeli duo jumped from 11th to third position on Sunday, finishing its races in first and third places, respectively.
"This was an excellent start to the gold group, we couldn't have asked for any more," Gal and Kliger said. "We're in third position and within touching distance of first. We need to maintain our composure and build on our momentum."
