I think there is a possibility UK Sport chooses to focus only on the Summer games as the winter games are not worth funding. Private funding is always possible. 

As a fellow Brit I sympathise with your frustration, but you don’t need to mention funding every time someone doesn’t match expectations (which I appreciate has been more frequent than we’d like of late!)

 

Surely if they’re not performing they need more funding not less? Let’s do the postmortem after the Games and enjoy watching while we have them. And I’m not sure Team GB’s performance/funding is of interest to everyone else following the sport.

Just choosing to forget moguls yesterday aren't we ?

Moioli handicaped herself twice on the start and it cost her the win most likely.

 Baff had the train honk all day for sure!

Moioli pulled two of the worst starts of all time back to back, she could have challenged for gold

The reaction from Baff, that's definitely one of the best of these Olympics. You can't help but feel happy for her

Such a great journey from 2020 youth games champion to Olympic gold
