Complete failure of the american team staff here, seriously how to mentally send your best athlete down even more and at the same time threw away your medal chance

Well, considering the comments of americans on twitter, obviously they didn't understand this event - like myself

also a decent 12th place at the end for team SVK without Petra even that single win of Adam against USA was a nice achievement

 

and by this the #TeamSlovensko participation at the games is over

Obviously I'm not familiar with the sport, but that seems so stupid. So theoretically a team can have 2 DNF and still win?

I think you can have 4 DNF and still win.

Probably the idea here is that Miki is so good to win on red and give a team big advantage but... 🤔

They were putting all their coins on winning on points, in which case Shiffrin on red is a good choice. But yeah.

Also the french are not exactly happy (and I mean at all) with the "strategy" to put Worley on red during the quarter

Yesh, Shiffrin on red lost to Bassino by 0,02! Most red losses for women were by at least 0,4 if not 0,7! Shiffrin would have smoked everyone on blue course most likely. USA will look back at this and realize how badly they blew this. DNF didn't mean jack shit here. Blue course winning times were the key. Radamus on blue course was fast enough to carry them but they put Moltzan on blue instead of Shiffrin.

she also lost by just 0.10 to Duerr. in the whole competition she was the only one who was close to win a race from the red course. nobody else was

 

Shiffrin will never forget this Olympics. even when she was doing great, someone else messed up her chance.

I mean that’s true in all parallel / cross formats. You can theoretically win a gold medal in snowboardcross without starting any of the rounds as long as you won qualifying and everyone else DNSs too.

Yee, but let say it was on the beginning of the competition and the trend with blue course was not so clear

Well, by every run it started to be more than obvious, even the french commentators noticed it quite quickly too claiming as the main problem for the red course today the strong wind and its direction at the top part, you could clearly see skiers on red course starting to lose already on the top part, they were really unpleasantly surprised to see Worley seeded to the red track to say the least
