* I hope Van der Poel's and Friedrich's double gold medal predictions don't count as two separate ones.:d

It does, so you may want to shrink it down to 5 events. ;)

    • I still shocks, that a country of 4-5 million inhabitants? can be a powerhouse in almost every winter sport + handball, football (most recently with Haaland) and athletics: Ingebrigtsen, Warholm, etc. With such a small population, they can't be missing out on any major talent, surely? This must be the best training system in the world...
