For :AUS  Scotty James

Has been around for many years now and is much loved here in Australia and obviously has incredible talent. 
World champs wins, X games wins, an Olympic silver and bronze but he is just missing that elusive Olympic gold. 
 

I am looking forward to seeing how he goes again as I can’t think of another athlete in my country who is more deserving right now. 🙂

Any non Australians? Or just Australians :d

I’ll start first;   Obviously,  @brunamoura in cross country skiing if she qualifies  (no pressure)    and  Johannes Hoesflot Klaebo.   Curling:  Team Hasselborg and Team Ed

From my perspective, not counting all  athletes:   Alpine skiing  Lucas Pinheiro Braathen  Lara Colturi  Zrinka Ljutić  Alice Robinson    Biathlon  Marketa

Decided to start a thread on this early, and get some discussion    When I mean athletes, I mean athletes from other countries mainly… but ones that represent your country work too

My knowledge on other athletes for winter games is quite shallow unfortunately!

Well this thread flopped horrifically…

Maybe just a bit premature.  Revive it this time next year.

Too early to have favourites? Personally, I don’t think so.

Definitely agree with a lot of these.  In general, everyone from countries that don't have much of a tradition or many facilities, so would add people like

 

:AUS Anthony Ferlazzo in Luge

:BEL biathletes

:AND in everything

:IRL Maloney-Westgaard in Cross country
