A stunning race! Wow, what a shocking result

Kramer you mean, I suppose? Bloemen is not exactly shocking :d (neither would Bergsma or Kramer have been)

The Netherlands saw that Germany was about to win the medal table, so they sent Bloemen to Canada to help them stopping Germany.

Bloemen is already 31 years old, so this was probably his only chance for an olympic gold, good way to retire. Gonna be interesting to see which dutch athlete Canada will naturalize next. There must be some other dutch athlete who would be willing to switch nationality for not being able to make the dutch team.

Congrats to the italian guy, he probably can't believe it himself.

Crazy day for them, nobody expected anything, but they won 2 medals already.

Nobody expect anything? It was one of the most important day of the 2018 OG :p

What do you mean? Did you consider Giotto a medal contender?

You mean giant slalom? There was a certain medal chance, but not giant.
