Congrats to Oskar Eriksson for Gold in Men’s Curling and Bronze in Mixed Curling. Well done! :clap:

First player in history to win two olympic medals in curling at the same Olympics. Also, Eriksson lost twice to Mouat in round robin matches, but beat him twice in medal matches.

With another silver from 2018 and bronze (as alternativ) he is the most decorated olympic curler ever

Dear Swedish users, please share later on any links to Swedish media (newspapers) interviews with Edin. We can always translate the texts into English via Google Translate ;-)

BEIJING / STOCKHOLM. They have won everything that can be won.

But Team Edin has no plans to quit - but the skipper may also invest in billiards.

- I play a lot of billiards, says Niklas Edin.

Most World Cup and European Championship gold.

And now also an Olympic gold, the only thing that was missing in Lag Edin's prize locker.

The Swedes have now won everything that can be won and are one of the world's best curling teams of all time.

If the win in Beijing was the final destination for the close friends?

- No, we have not said that. We will see what the life situation looks like for us, but right now it indicates that we are tough as usual, says Oskar Eriksson and continues:

- We have not said what we want to do, we will evaluate it after the season. Right now we're just going to enjoy the moment.
"Have nothing else for me"

The next big championship is the World Cup in Las Vegas in early April.

Christoffer Sundgren also believes that there are no plans to close down.

- There is probably a lot left to win. Well, we can pull it off again. We have not actually discussed anything. But I have nothing else for me. You can make more money on an engineering job that I have studied for, but it is more fun with curling.
Can bet on billiards

However, skipper Niklas Edin may make a small career change.

To also bet on - billiards.

- Yes maybe not instead but it would be fun to combine a little, I play a lot of billiards which is a little more gentle on the body. It has also given a lot to challenge the skull a little more than curling, which is a mixture of mental and physical sports. But I will probably continue with curling as well, it's a bit too fun.

Btw I once won a game of billiards against him:d

    • In general, our picture for a little over 1 year until the home games looks like this:     - the women's sector is still based on one Lollo, who is 3 years older than 2022, - the women's and men's sprint sector is based on one Bosa and possibly the young Pergher (0% possobility for medal in 2026), - Ghiotto has made a lot of progress and that is a big plus. He could result to give our even 3 medals, including 1/2 gold. Our team's performance also depends to a large extent on Ghiotto's form, - the rest of the men's team is basically unchanged. There is Giovannoni in the mass start, there is Malfatti in the longer distances, but they are not competitors on the podium of a major event.   I will repeat myself: if Ghiotto continues to make such progress, we will probably win 3 medals, 2 of which gold and it will be a success. If something doesn`t work out, an injury, illness, etc. (we know from Vitozzi that this can happen to anyone), then it could be very bad. By the way, this also applies to other sports: the above-mentioned Vitozzi in biathlon, Goggia in downhill, Brignone in giant slalom, etc.
    • With the World Cup season in most of the winter sports about to begin and qualification in some sports already underway, I think it's about time for this thread.    Template    ...

    • Today is a day without Italians in the leads positions. I`m worried that they are not trying to revive this our sprint. There is only one Bosa and he is old. Pergher is young but she is also only one. It is a pity. After the Olympics they will probably 100% give up on the entire sprint. Our medal bag in Cortina will depend 90% on Ghiotto, just like it did on Fabris in Turin 2006. If Ghiotto will be in goodshape, he can even win 2 individual golds + a team medal. If not, it will be a flop. Apart from him, only Lollobrigida can compete in the mass start and possibly Giovannini in the men's mass start.
    • Yup, actually they have just some juniors pairs in the dance event 
    • In bed with the flu and few hours of sleep, but at least the insomnia will let me watch the first World Cup stage
    • The news then is that she has not yet been arrested? I suppose Camila when she returns to Italy will have a very unwelcome visit from the Guardia di Finanza.
