Anna Hoffmann, winner of the US Olympic trials, got entered in the Olympics after originally being the *sixth* alternate (and after multiple articles were written about the US failing to qualify any woman in ski jumping).

 

Yes, declined the second female quota at the last moment. They really stuck a fork in their ski jumping. got the spot instead.

@Jan LinhaYeah, decided to send only one male ski jumper so the "last minute" rejected quotas went to and

Yeah, I heard about the refusal and I know that male jumper was 1st below the line. Just did not expect will confirm another spot with all those "great results" this season.... Still gotta wait for the official word from Czech ski federation anyway....

U.S. gets another Olympic ski jumping spot

 

Most notably, they're up to 4 men's jumpers, so they'll get to compete in the men's team event

yeah pretty unfortunate, especially her competition is already on Day 1... but, hey, lets always hope only for the best, she still can have two negative tests in the next 48 hours and make it in time...
