Bleh. We will have flagbearers after all.

 

Leona Popović, our best female skier in the last 10 years, will be forced to awkwardly share the flag with a cross-country skiing man who got selected thanks to his head coach father, and who of course has no results to speak of and zero future prospects. Yay equality!!!

 

p.s. Since our male alpine skiers are arriving after the Opening ceremony, our NOC literally had only this one male athlete to "choose"....

So Leona Popovic and Marko Skender if I understood correctly, right ?

In i really do not know who can be.

My estimation: Březina (ice skating), and Fernstädt (skeleton).

Chinese Taipei are boycotting the ceremonies as well

My guesses for 

 

Female: Charlotte Kalla or Anna Hasselborg. But will SOC pick a curler again? My bet is Kalla.  
 

Male: Sebastian Samuelsson 

 

If only one I think Kalla.

My Guess for  

Gu Ailing(Freestyle Skiing) and Ning Zhongyan(Speed Skating)

 

Unfortunately Sui Wenjing/Han Cong(Figure Skating) and Wu Dajing(Short Track Speed Skating) are scheduled with matches on the ceremony day, otherwise I may change my guess.

Men: Gao Tingyu(Speed Skating)

Women: Zhao Dan(Skeleton)

 

Obviously my previous guess is all wrong.

I think your choices made more sense than the actual selection xD

unfortunately it seems our NOC enjoys to follow the IOC's "advise" which means 67% of our small 3-man delegation will carry the flag ! 

 

it will be Sattar Seyd (CC skiing) and Atefeh Ahmadi (Alpine)

 

4 years ago our flagbearer crying during the parade of the nations even made it to the IOC's Olympic highlight. but now with this "advise" it's not really a special moment for anybody.

one of our flag bearers tested positive for COVID and will miss the Games. I don't know what's the plan now.
