That's objectively false. If all you care is the number of medals at the WCh (why? they are not even that much more important than World Cups), and all the rest of the year is worth nothing, you should really pick another country to support -the Italian system is not, and hopefully will never be, based only on that. To say that there has not been any progress since 2018 in this thread (freestyle skiing being the biggest example of a huge progress) is quite something.   that means that, like the whole season suggested, we will have a lot of medal chances next year. In the summer it was the opposite - many World Champions and medalist who later came short at the Olympics. Being third or fourth today will hardly change anything about what can happen in 2026. I much prefer having a lot of consistent podium finishers in the World Cups week after week.      

First in the 60m. 100m bronze in 1956.

So according to my quick count        are qualified for the Olympics, last place will be decides between  & , the later needing a medal to do so.   For the Qualification tournament,    &  are qualified, joined by either the Norwegians or the Chinese. And in the Pre Qualification tournament we’ll have:     from 2024/2025 Worlds       from 2024/2025 Europe Division A       from 2024/2025 Pan Continental Division A  

Wow,  Linton through to the quarterfinals after an all-Canadian battle against Desmaris-Gilbert!

So glad to finally see Simbine on the podium also surprising that the chinese athlete ended up in fourth
