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....

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...
