It's really not that shocking. Italy was Canada's biggest threat here with a healthy Fontana on the team in their own country. Canada didn't really challenge in that final, but if they did it could have caused a crash or DQ. Get one medal under your belt and move forward. 

 

And great result for Belgium! 

Yeah now that you mention it I probably should’ve factored that in

Arianna Fontana wins her 11th Olympic medal, just one shy of Mangiarotti's fencing record.

Watching short track speed skating races really makes one's heart race. The upcoming competitions will all take place late at night in China, and I hope to wake up to good news. (My worry now is that if the first gold medal keeps eluding us, it will be like the situation in Pyeongchang.)

I'm dissapointed about our result in relay, but oh well, congrats to medalists, hoping that both Maliszewska and Niewiński will go further than QF and in next days Pigeon will be better (on 500m lets say)

Arianna Fontana is now the youngest winter italian athlete ever (15 years, 304 days) and the oldest ever (35 years, 302 days) to win a medal at OG.
