What’s funny is how that “reporter” can’t even spell the name right

 

Poor Zhou, though.

Lea Jugovac withdrew from slopestyle this morning. Details are starting to come out.

 

Apparently she got removed from the Opening Ceremony parade moments before entering the stadium as she got a call about testing - positive. She spent then hours in Beijing waiting for another test which was - negative. They brought her back to Zhangjikaou around 3am. At least slopestyle is her less preferred event, but this still is years of qualification going down the drain...

 

And I guess this is the kind of luck which always remembers to give us multiple first reserves during qualifications...

The organizers have apologized for treating her like dirt, but only after our NOC filed an official protest.

 

Not convinced we will ever qualify for the slopestyle again, but alright, who cares (certainly not the IOC and their dictator).
