Whose medal in Beijing 2022 would be the biggest fun & joy for you? Here you can choose only between athletes REPRESENTING YOUR NATION.

The perk of a mini team is having zero expectations.

 

Heck, I'll even have time to watch every single performance, so I guess I'll just support them as they go along.

[intoronto 5,768]

Max Parrot, Leukemia survivor 

Literally anyone in cross country or Biathlon winning a medal

Charles Hamelin in the 1000m (only gold medal he is missing and this is his last Olympics)

 

I'm sure there is more but this is what comes to mind

[NearPup 3,113]

Maxence Parrot and Mark McMorris in snowboard slopestyle / big air.

[phelps 7,741]

Sofia Goggia going back-to-back in the women's downhill (alpine skiing) is a no brainer, given what happened in the last couple of weeks

 

then, Dorothea Wierer (women's biathlon), Roland Fischnaller (men's snowboard) because it would be the perfect "final chapter" of an amazing career for both our veterans and Dominik Fischnaller (men's luge) because 4 years ago he missed out on a medal for just 2/1000 of a second...and it still hurts...

[Triplecast 156]

Any Biathlon medal.  Shiffrin winning at least one gold other than super combined.  Erin Jackson and Brittany Bowe both winning gold.   

[mrv86 3,151]

Any Mexican athlete breaking into top 20 would be enough to celebrate 

[De_Gambassi 1,225]

Maurice Manificat in a single event, but sadly that seems very unlikely this time. Tessa Worley then.

[Medard81 21]

David Ryding in the Slalom. Just to say we have actually won an Alpine Skiing medal. Failing that third time lucky for James Woods in the Freestyle Ski Slopestyle event as pretty sure this is his last games.

[Jinzha 702]

For me it would be Sjinkie Knegt as well, I've got lots of respect for him as an athlete and person.

 

Another medal for Wüst or Kramer on their final Games would also be very special. They have been the face of speed skating ever since I started watching sports. It's going to be weird without them.

Haha thank you 

 

For  I would say Team Edin. He has won everything except GOLD in Olympics.

 

Van Der Poel would be a joy too and yes Ice hockey for men. But since the best aren’t participating this is not important. 

 

So Team Edin and Nils Van Der Poel. 

My dreams go to the life. So happy for Edin and Van Der Poel. 

 

@rafalgorkacan you see why I wanted this thread?
