Obviously at the world championships it's always possible a non-German wins, but man, if they have one big chance for a gold medal...it's definitely right there  (stating the obvious, I know  )

What about Klosterhalfen in womens 1500 m? Not a favorite for gold?

Tortu on the entry list in mens 100/200 m?

Ingebrigtsen on the entry list in mens 1500 m and mens 3000 m SC!

Tortu is on the entry list for both, but his father/coach already said that he will do only one for now (probably 100m).

I thought Tortu was pretty much out for the season with his injury
