2023/2024 World Cup calendar has been confirmed. Like reported on the provisional schedule, Mt. Tremblant 2x GS replace the women's speed events of Lake Louise while men head for a standalone slalom in Gurgl mid-November between Zermatt and the trip to North America.

Petra Vlhová received last night from the hands of the President of the Republic Zuzana Čaputová the Order of Ľudovít Štúr (which is one of highest state decoration) :d a nice motivation before Jasná World Cup stage this weekend :p

 

The medal is awarded to Slovak citizens who have made exceptional contributions to democracy and human rights, the defence and security of the republic, or for exceptionally significant merit in the fields of politics, state management and administration, the development of the national economy, science and technology, culture, art, education, sports, and for significant spread of the good name of the Slovak Republic abroad.

https://kurier.at/sport/wintersport/olympiasieger-matthias-mayer-in-kitzbuehel-festgenommen/402746839

 

Kurz nach 18 Uhr gab es dann einen Stellungnahme des ÖSV zu den Geschehnissen um Mayer in Kitzbühel. In diesen heißt es:

 

"Wir mussten heute mit Bedauern zur Kenntnis nehmen, dass Matthias Mayer seine gesundheitlichen Probleme, mit denen er schon seit längerer Zeit kämpft, noch nicht überwunden hat. Als Ski Austria Familie haben wir ihm gemeinsam mit allen Athleten, Kollegen und Partnern stets Halt gegeben."

 

"Wir wünschen Matthias alles Gute und hoffen, dass er möglichst bald zu seiner Leidenschaft dem Skisport wieder zurückkehren kann."

 

"Auch in Rücksprache mit seiner Familie bitten wir um Respekt und Verständnis, dass wir keine weitere Auskunft geben können."

 

basically, he's gone mad in public circumstances...it looks he has strong mental health problems :cry:

wish him the best :fingers:

    • Also it being illegal in France means the IOC will have to test everyone pre arriving at 2030 and can’t wait till they arrive at the Games to do so. I’m sure at 2028 for some sports testing will happen on site if it’s not a rule of its governing body for non Olympic events. So far only a few sports like Athletics and Boxing have that rule - I suspect others will adopt it but others might take time. 
    • https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/olympics/articles/cpwj78lxypro ‘In France - one of a number of countries where genetic testing is illegal without a medical prescription due to privacy laws - the government has condemned the decision as "a step backwards". "It defines the female sex without taking into account the biological specificities of intersex individuals, whose sexual characteristics present natural variations, leading to a reductive and potentially stigmatising approach," ⁠claimed French Sports Minister Marina Ferrari.”   ‘A group of legal experts in human rights and sports have since expressed, external"urgent concern" about what they called "the regressive move toward genetic testing as a precondition of participation in women's sport" which they say "violate domestic and international laws that protect human rights and regulate the use of genetic testing and genetic information".  The group has called on athletes "to challenge the national or regional implementation of mandatory genetic sex testing, demanded by the IOC or international federations, before domestic courts, by invoking national or regional laws protecting human rights, prohibiting anti-discrimination, and regulating the use of genetic testing and genetic data".’   Domestic laws are more challenging for the IOC to deal with than CAS. Things could get complicated for a bit. 
    • Except NOC’s and governing bodies have to still follow local laws. Particularly for Under 18’s there could certainly be domestic legal issues regarding associations paying for travel to other counties to circumvent a domestic ban. Child protection services don’t always act reasonable to attempts to break a domestic law.
