Here's where the mental toughness of athletes will come into play...can't imagine trying to get back in the game after a pause like that.

I wouldn't be able to, but those gals are kinda used to it.

 alpine team having a great day so far, 15 skiers in and 12th-15th

Goggia made a big mistake on the Duca d'Aosta jump (the jump at roughly 25 seconds), she may have thrown away a chance at gold

Commentator mentioning the infamous 'wooden medal' for 4th place. Luckily he explained that they do not actually award it....

I don't think I have great sportsmanship; imagine me being disappointed with the result and someone shoving a camera in my face.

 

Obviously, athletes shouldn't care about that.

The course is still fast anyway, the course hold did not hurt.

In US Figure Skating (perhaps elsewhere, I don't know), they do award a 'pewter medal' for 4th.  Weird...

Would not believe Slovakia will tie Austria in the medal table after both Downhills

Not just you, I'd be annoyed too

All the Italians made many mistakes. They should know this track like the palm of their hand, yet it's like they were visitors.
