          - 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

9 Golds (which is not so unrealistic I must admit) will certainly put China in the top 4 of the final medal standing which would be absolutely prodigious, marvelous, crazy but truly admirable achievement.

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).:d

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 :d

 

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 :p

 

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 (:p) winter sports country do very good at home WOG. :yes

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):mumble:

      The strength of the UK is that they are 100% focused on the track, while Italy must to navigate between the track and the road: the line-up is different for practically every event, etc. Paternoster should focus 100% on the track; she won't win anything big on the road anymore. As it is, she's weak both there and there. The situation is different with Balsamo, as she's also having significant success on the road and likely earns the most money there.

      Discovery+ in the UK have also got their schedule up now.     I notice that only thing listed as being in UHD is the Opening Ceremony though....

      The problem over the last few years was that no-one was able to keep pace with the big Katie Archibald turns. Looks to be sorted now.

      The women's top 50 is so crammed with athletes from the same five nations that it is not inconceivable they are unable to fill the full quota from the top 50, in which case a third double spot would open up between USA/BEL/GBR

      That women's pursuit team looks brutally fast. Batter you over the head into submission brutal, perhaps not seen since the early Trott-Rowsell days The 4 minute barrier could be on borrowed time.   The two British women sprinters Finucane and Caldwell also look pretty ominous, indeed the whole women's sprint team looks in some shape and with some depth to get that result without Finucane   Work to do for the British men's teams, but they won't be unhappy either, not to mention Joe Truman's unexpected Kilo win.

      How Many Medals do You Expect from Your Nation at the Winter Olympic Games Milano Cortina 2026？

      By JockCartier · Posted

      I prefer to do mine like this guy (https://app.podiumsport.it/) does his "Projected Medals" as probability based rather than straight medal picking... all things being equal, conversion rates should be about the same and the outliers come out in the wash. Unfortunately most people just like medal picking, and think any other approach is weird

      So probably: Men Oceania: Americas: Africa: Asia: One of  Europe: One of Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (probably not)  and whichever countries don’t qualify from Asian Games.  Universality: ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of the above in World Rankings    and one of  (most likely) or  seem safe with two quotas. The other will be favourites if a third team gets allocated two.    Women Oceania: Europe: One of Americas:  /  if US is ineligible due to their host quota, if the host quota gets reallocated then Canada will be in contention in the rankings Africa:   Asia: One of   Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (x1?)  (x1/2)  (x1/2), whichever doesn’t qualify out of  / ,  and  ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of above.  Universality: ?    is safe with two quotas between  it’ll be tough for whoever misses out of those three.   nevermind ,

      The rankings look likely to give two spots each in the men's side to Egypt (2nd athlete at 3) and GB (second athlete at 9). the nearest contender after that is France and both Egypt and GB have plenty of contenders after their respective number 2 but before France's umber 2   Women's side looks a bit more of a battle, with Egypt again likely to provide 2, and then a fight between USA, GBR and BEL for the other lucky double spot. That said, so dominant are the Egyptians, Americans and Brits, that failing to find all the contenders in the top 50 is entirely plausible, possibly opening a third 'double' spot.

      I'd done my final revisions on my prediction spreadsheets.. and I'm sticking with 26 for Canada.    Take it to the bank! (But don't sign anything)
