Extremely unlucky draw for the german team. Sweden is probably a top 5 team, can't believe that they are only seeded 10th. I think Germany could have beaten every team except Switzerland/Austria.

 

Quarterfinals:

Austria vs. Slovenia/Canada

France/Czech Republic vs. Norway/Poland

Italy/Russia vs. Slovakia/USA

Germany/Sweden vs. Switzerland/China

 

Semifinals should be:

Austria vs. France/Norway

Italys vs. Switzerland

 

Can't believe what an easy draw Austria has. Germany probably would have made the final with a draw like that. The austrians should be ashamed if they don't win at least silver.

 

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

Sweden doesn‘t have Sara Hector, so probably not that strong.

Wait, Great Britain has rejected its place in the mixed team event? I'm super shocked - we originally accepted it before the games, and are normally strong in parallel events (Ryding has a podium in parallel, Tilley & Guest normally make it to the last 16). We got to the quarterfinals last time in 2018, beating the USA and nearly beating Norway.

 

I don't think any of our four skiers are injured? Really disappointing, I'd hoped they could pull off a few surprises.

it's not a draw - Nations Cup standing determined the table.

Always thought that was a terrible way to determine the bracket in this event.

That's a huge shame. :GBR legitimately was very much a medal contender in this event in 2018.

Damn, I thought maybe Canada could luck its way to a medal given that the best skiers sometimes don't compete, but very unlikely we beat Austria...

Feeling optimistic that we can medal in this as long as Slokar or Kranjec put up the best time. They should win their duels easily enough, while Robnik and Hrobat will probably lose theirs. So it comes down to the fastest time.

I know that Alex Tilley was skiing on an ankle she broke in October, so I’m guessing that is it.  As you say, it was a legit medal chance for us with so many big names already back home.

Why are so many top athletes skipping it. People don’t tend to skip relays and such like. 

The last technique event for the women was last Wednesday and many doesn‘t want to stay another 10 days in Beijing.

      Yes, but what I mean for Serbia is that everything changed there (unfortunately for us ). 2022 was an unbelievable mess, that's not the case anymore now with just one athlete who has really gone for it and made it, so I'm 99% sure they'll accept it this time.   Who knows though. Plus there's always 1-2 bigger countries here or there who reject something, but it's not gonna be 16 places I'm afraid

      Doping Cases and Bans in 2025

      By bestmen · Posted

      Doping by Event Type When we look at which events have the most doping cases, a few categories stand out from recent sanction records: Long Distance (3,000m and above): 32% of cases Sprints (400m or less): 24% of cases Jumps: 12% of cases Javelin: 8% of cases Middle Distance (800m–1,500m): 8% of cases Hammer: 8% of cases Steeplechase (3,000m SC): 4% of cases

      Doping Cases and Bans in 2025

      By bestmen · Posted

      From 2020 to 2025    These three countries alone make up almost two-thirds (61.9%) of all current doping violations in athletics worldwide. It’s worth noting that 199 of World Athletics’ 214 member federations have no athletes on the current ban list. This means the problem is really concentrated in a small number of places. Here’s a look at the top countries: Rank Country Total Violations Percentage Region 1 Kenya 119 24.74% Africa 2 India 108 22.45% Asia 3 Russia 73 15.18% Europe 4 China 26 5.40% Asia 5 Turkey 20 4.16% Europe 6 Italy 18 3.74% Europe 7 South Africa 18 3.74% Africa 8 Ukraine 17 3.53% Europe 9 United States 16 3.33% North America 10 Morocco 15 3.12% Africa

      Here's my calculations of the quotas. I believe you are correct about Italy having 3 quotas in men's singles.   Men's Singles   3 Quotas: 2 Quotas: 1 Quota:   data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAPABAP///wAAACH5BAEKAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAICRAEAOw==   Women's Singles   3 Quotas: 2 Quotas: 1 Quota:     Men's Doubles   2 Quotas: 1 Quota:     Women's Doubles   1 Quota:
