Chris Chelios’ kid playing for China will be really weird.

Not As Peter Šťastný both kids playing for USA :d Especially the older one himself alone destroying our Team in that Sochi 2014 opener was really hard to handle :lol:

Must be a hell of a lot money being paid for those without Chinese roots to give up their original citizenship and be Chinese for ever more.

Eileen Gu is still an American citizen so who knows how strict they are about this.

Perhaps part of the deal is they can keep their original citizenship and don’t have to bother with the rules anyone else would have to follow.

 

Through Nina Schultz/Ninali Zheng has renounced her Canadian citizenship I believe.

That is correct. It’s kind of hard to really know what the rules are / how well enforced they are because there are so few naturalizations in China. Ninali Zheng is a case where an athlete specifically wanted to represent China, she wasn’t recruited. I wonder if the Chinese government will be willing to be more flexible for athletes that they are actively recruiting.

Chinese media quoted BBC reporting that Beijing2022 is expected with full capacity of spectators. Let me put this clear, if authority wants to promote something with controversy then mainstream media will firstly report them quoting from foreign media. If it finds that people support the decision then it will do it. If if finds people oppose it then it will said it's rumor from overseas. Chinese national games will be held from 15th Sep. to 28th Sep. with at least 50% spectators and I bought tickets already. It's also a major test event to decide if spectators will be allowed for WOG.

Are they considering also foreign visitors or only local fans ?

I think everyone in China will be allowed but I don't think tourist visas will be issued at this moment.

that's what i thought. :( In any case, at least if the local spectators will be allowed to fill the stands it will be already great. because empty stadiums just sucks too much, and obviously even more at the Olympics

    • It's hard to believe it was still in this calendar year      
    • In last year, we were were happy with Brignone's wins, and today we're excite that della Mea is in the top 10... It's hard to imagine a bigger fall... And Goggia should give up on the giant slalom and focus on the speed events – Vonn isn't wasting time on the giant slalom, but is training for downhill and SG. Goggia last one finished on the podium in the giant slalom in march 2018, and she has no any chance of winning an Olympic medal at the regular competition. It's a waste of time and energy to finish 8th or 9th and risk injury. And we have to accept that without Brignone, we have no chance of winning a medal in the giant slalom in Cortina, and that's it.
    • yeah, just like Anna Trocker earlier Today   I think this is the best way to blow them    they're not ready for the world cup stage yet, but we're so bad right now that our coaches are digging deep
    • Some surprises and fun results so far at this year's Worlds. Like a few minutes ago, when  Harrysson made the 1/8 with another very good performance. Now he plays Jonny Clayton, who this afternoon made a stellar performance in a tough battle with Zonneveld. I don't see an easy match for Clayton, even though on paper he would have wished such an opponent for a 1/8 before the tournament.   Also i'm delighted that my fav Gary Anderson seems to be in good form, though at his age, he is prone to sudden bad matches at any time.
