She is definitely a talent for the future though. While, YOG winners have struggled to really make a mark on the World Cup tours, they have become notable names and good sliders. Rinaldi and Aparjods are both YOG winners, and I’d say that’s not a bad group to be a part of. Hopefully we a :SVK bobsledder in Beijing.

If you need emojis for your sarcasm, your sarcasm is broken.

Teams for 3x3 Tournaments are known

 

 

The teams for the first IIHF-sanctioned 3-on-3 ice hockey tournaments are known. Female and male junior players will play in mixed teams at the upcoming 2020 Winter Youth Olympic Games in Lausanne next January.

The athletes for the eight men’s and eight women’s team qualified through the National Skills Challenge that served as qualification event in the 40 participating countries.

Each team will consist of 13 athletes (11 skaters, 2 goaltenders) who will in each case join from 13 different National Olympic Committees.

With the participants now concerned, the team rosters have now been created and coaches from the IIHF assigned.

    • You know, but we still don't know what that was about. Ceccarelli has a difficult character but still changing colors to a country with which you have absolute no connetions? What would you say if Iga Swiatek fell out with the Polish tennis federation and started playing for Luxembourg or Andorra? Certainly not everyone would decide to take such a step, even if they had to give in a little in talks with the federation.    Another thing is that the Italian training system simply doesn`t work. As you can see, there are talents but we don`t know how to train them. Since the golden generation born in 1990-1995 (Brignone, Bassino, Goggia) we haven`t trained anyone who would stand on the podium in giant slalom or slalom in World Cup. So something is wrong. At the beginning of the 21st century we had a large group of good athletes in giant slalom (maybe not at Brignone's level): Karbon, Moelgg, Putzer, Gius, etc., who were able to win World Cups, win World Championship medals, etc. Now we have no one. In women's giant slalom for example: if Brignone and Bassino are gone, even getting to the first 20 in World Cup will be a problem for us.
    • I remember that Lara Gut's family also had a conflict with the Swiss federation at the beginning of her career around 2008/2009 but it was resolved. I remember that the family also wanted to have a greater influence on their daughter's career. It was probably similar here. If there was a will from both sides, an agreement should have been reached. Especially since Colturi has zero ties with Albania. Sinner could have played for Austria sooner, as a person from South Tyrol.
    • Berrettini defeated Kokkinakis in 3 set   And now, it's Sinner time.
    • Well, it was to be expected that Colturi was going to have a breakout result like that sooner or later and the state of Italian alpine skiing will create some very long faces. But hey, if Italy  let their "best" prospect walk because of money then it's their fault. If there was some personal feud between Ceccarelli & federation it's even worse.
    • Stage 3 in Gurgl (AUT)   Women´s Slalom:   1. Mikaela Shiffrin    1:40.22 2. Lara Colturi    1:40.77 3. Camille Rast    1:40.79   Full Final Results HERE
    • Stage 1 in Lillehammer (NOR)   Women´s Individual Large Hill:   1.  Nika Prevc    269.9 2. Katharina Schmid    247.6 3. Selina Freitag    244.4   Full Final Result HERE
    • WOW!!!!!    4-2 down and facing 3 German counters, Bruce Mouatt nails an amazing triple takeout to score 2!      4  4 after 4 ends.
