Sad for Peiffer, it's never good when an athlete has to withdraw shortly before a race due to personal reasons (which aren't the birth of a baby, otherwise we'd probably have known) :(

US women changing up the relay order.  Susan Dunklee has started for as long as I can remember.  Tomorrow, Deedra Irwin will lead off.  She did well in Finland in the 3rd position.  Dunklee is now 2nd, Reid 3rd and Egan in 4th.  I look forward to seeing this in action tomorrow.  Great day for US Women, Egan 10th, Reid 27th, Dunklee 53rd, Irwin 54th.  I can not remember when 4 US women made a pursuit.  

 

US men ... not so much.  It was good to see Paul Schommer do well with a 42nd place.

 

I'm not sure if Carrara is the answer yet for the Italians, she finished in 101st with 5 misses.  Slettemark in 96th, but beat Chloe Chevallier!

 

Well known biathletes who will miss the pursuit:

Vanessa Hinz

Vita Semerenko - only missed 2, but skied really slow

Elisa Gasparin (4 misses) and Aita Gasparin (4 misses).

Paulina Fialkova

Chloe Chevalier

 

I wonder if Sweden should rest the two Ogberg's tomorrow?  I kind of feel the same way about the two Boe brothers.  Rest them in the relay.

Interesting, thanks. Hopefully in the end all goes well then, it's always worrying when someone suddenly has to leave.

Knotten showing that shape was not the problem last week, it really was just a shitty day.

Fell & damaged her rifle, so had trouble with the manual reloads, according to UK Comms.

    • Right now russians themselves metioned that they have 2 main options for women`s quota: - Peklecova will was not included into the international doping testing pool (RUSADA is still incompliant after that scandal) - D.Nepryaeva had training camps at the occupied territories - it is the best way to avoid of the international doping testing at all
    • We had no real problems with russians for a long time. It was a normal sport rivalry. It was common case that statues of russian politicians and poets remained in place even in the Western Ukraine which was joined by the Soviet Union much later. Lyskun was pro-Ukrainian according to her statement but she kept conctcts with her former coach. That coach moved to russia earlier and could do some brainwashing. I would say that the coach may have financial motivation to do this. By the way we had similar case with Bondar from Luhansk who moved to russia in 2014. What is really interesting - russians have a lot of resources but it took them 4 yeats to find someone relatively well-known in sport area to stage this propaganda performance.       Yes, this web-site is active and maintained. The list is beeing updated. But it is not an official goverment resource and it is operated by the non-goverment organization. It was created to draw attention of the national security services to the activities of some people and provide some initial foundations for further formal investigations.
    • AIN's will skipped (they got American visa too late) 2nd WC stage (but their could compete in 3rd WC stage) and, therefore, their chances to got more than 1 entry in OG have become lower, especially,  if their will not allow to compete in Sigulda (but after their participation in Poland's short-track WT stage, I won't give 100% chances for that).   Maybe problem with entries will be solved by itself)
    • You prefer matches in USA , look at that ...    Tourists to US would have to reveal five years of social media activity under new Trump plan to enter    https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/dec/10/tourists-social-media-trump
    • I would say - he did not share some part of "the profit" with someone from above )
    • Yeah, a complete failure all around. Only two individual quotas for men and two for women + mixed relay. Cortina looks like a big fat zero in the medal table tbh.
    • But yeah, as you said, their intention (if I have to guess) probably is to prevent Pan America from having 3 teams without going through the world oqt.  They were generous with the world cup qualification because it's in europe and with 16 teams but they won't be as much with their prime event.   Anyway, this doc is terribly written and could bring problems without an update.
    • IDK this seems like a big mistake on their part. They should have excluded Pan America from the first clause.    And also shoulda clarify if "highest placed" in the second statement means only champion or "highest placed not counting possible pro league qualified teams".     
    • Thank god that Continental Cup is gone, it was impossible to find results in early rounds
    • From my experience it is better to go by what they intended rather than what was written. The point being is that should the United States be in a position to take the Pan American quota, the quota will be reallocated to the world qualifiers.   It can be a bit frustrating, but these documents aren't exactly written to define what happens in every scenario, even though they should. If someone from the IOC/sport federations are here, I'd love to proof read your documents .
