Vic Liu 1,558 Posted December 19, 2021 #4 Share Posted December 19, 2021 My early prediction of China. It's a relatively optimistic version as the host. I may update the prediction when most skiing world cups finished. Speed Skating 2 medals (1 gold) - Men's 500m and 1500m Short Track Speed Skating 6 medals (3 golds) - Men's 500m/1000m/1500m, Men/Women/Mixed Relay Figure Skating 1 medal (1 gold) - Pairs Curling 1 medal - Women's Team Skeleton 1 medal - Men's Skeleton Freestyle Skiing 6 medals (3 golds) - Men/Women/Mixed Aerials, Women's Halfpipe/Slopestyle/Big Air Snowboarding 2 medals (1 gold) - Men's Big Air and Women's Halfpipe Total 19 medals and 9 golds opruh and Ted 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must admit 9 golds is an optimistic estimate. The official expectation is 6 golds but I insist my prediction (there are many events by scoring you know).

I do believe Gu Ailing will have huge home Olympics, also Aerials can very well end by a complete golds sweep for China. I have no idea about Speed Skating to be fair, this is probably the sole WOG sport I have currently zero knowledge about current situations so I will believe in your prediction here My biggest concern is about Short Track, this is so unpredictable sport with tones of penalties during the races, that it can perfectly end by your prediction of 6 medals (3 golds) but also somehow without a single one as well You know that I am mostly interested on hockey, which usually mostly steals all my attentions during the WOG watching/analyzing/living all games so I am more interesting how your team(s) will perform there. I hope given the circumstances it will at the end fulfills the main purpose of this whole project, to help growing the popularity of the sport in China and it will not be just a one event episode like many are affraid of. However good luck to all your olympic team, it is always good for the games themselves when a "relatively" small () winter sports country do very good at home WOG.

I can't see how Sweden will win fewer than 9-10 golds and not set a new record for total number of medals won at a single WOG (20-25 is my current prediction) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
