Speed Skating at the Winter Olympic Games Beijing 2022


Recommended Posts

Wow, Wüst :bowdown:

 

Of all performances I've seen in speed skating during the years, this ranks very, very high. And the outburst of emotion after the race was over and she was in interview mode was heartbreaking and beautiful, she basically broke as soon as Paulien van Deutekom was mentioned (her best friend and a former speed skating world champion, same generation, who died three years ago after a short illness).

Agree completely! I felt immediately after Wüst's race that we witnessed Dutch sports history right there.

Tomorrow we have the men's 1.500m starting two hours later than the other races so far. This will probably be one of the most competitive distances with about 8 realistic favorites for the medals and even more outsiders. My prediction:

 

  1. :NED Thomas Krol
  2. :USA Joey Mantia
  3. :CHN Ning Zhongyan
  4. :KOR Kim Min-Seok
  5. :NED Kjeld Nuis
     
  6. :CAN Connor Howe
  7. :JPN Seitaro Ichinohe
  8. :NOR Allan Dahl Johansson
  9. :JPN Takuro Oda
  10. :NOR Peder Kongshaug
     
  11. :BEL Bart Swings
  12. :NOR Kristian Ulekleiv
  13. :ROC Daniil Aldoshkin 
  14. :USA Emery Lehman
  15. :ROC Sergey Trofimov 
     
  16. :BEL Mathias Vosté
  17. :KAZ Dmitry Morozov
  18. :GBR Cornelius Kersten
  19. :CHN Wang Haotian
  20. :USA Casey Dawson
     
  21. :CAN Tyson Langelaar
  22. :ITA Alessio Trentini
  23. :NED Marcel Bosker
  24. :CHN Lian Ziwen
  25. :KOR Park Seong-Hyeon
     
  26. :NZL Peter Michael

    • Not the biggest fan of figure skating especially with what has happened this season but since it’s the Olympics I guess I’m watching 
    • Czech Euroeport commentator: wow I see there only 9 pairs starting, Korea probably thought they have no chances and decided to not send a pair here, what a dumb move   omfg...

    • Don't know if other nations' media have picked this up, but here in  the aerodynamics of ski jumping are a question.of fascination.  Or one particular aspect of it.   The World Anti-Doping Agency could investigate if evidence emerges that male ski jumpers are injecting their penises in a bid to improve sporting performance.   In January, German newspaper Bild, external reported that jumpers were injecting their penises with hyaluronic acid before being measured for their suits     https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/articles/czej70jyg4eo
