According to Eurosport. In the official one Riner won, I believe? Which is utterly ridiculous by the way, there's absolutely nobody who deserved it more than Fourcade, so it's good to see the people at Eurosport have a better view at it.

At least a judoka gets some attention in between many other athletes from more popular sports. :d

It's not the officilal one, but it is from l'Equipe (and thus the most talked about). Actually, Fourcade never won it from l'Equipe (in 2014, he was beaten by Lavilénie who just beat the WR that year) and is ranked 4th this year after Mayer and Bosse.

 

I've never understood these rankings anyway. Apples and oranges really.

 

For anyone interested, here are the top ten by l'Equipe:

 

Men:

1. Teddy Riner

2. P-A Bosse

3. Kevin Mayer

4. Martin Fourcade

5. AS Monaco (allright then...)

6. Yohann Diniz

7. Kylian Mbappé

8. Thomas Coville (Sailing)

9. Armel Le Cleac'h (Sailing)

10.. Sébastien Augier & J. Ingrassia (WRC)

 

Women:

1. Tessa Worley

2. Caroline Garcia

3. Clarisse Agbegnenou (They love their judo at l'Equipe apparently)

4. Aurélie Muller

5. Mélina Robert Michon

6. Eugénie le Sommer (Football) (I've no idea why)

7. Tess Ledeux (Freestyle skiing)

8. Perrine Laffont (Freestyle skiing)

9. Helena Clark (Basketball)

10. Koumba Larroque (Wrestling) (Might be a first fot this sport)

 

Not even one guy or a girl from Handball... Yeah, whatever.

Is there an official one? For me it's rather simple: Fourcade had an insane, historic season. I don't see any French athlete on this list or somewhere else who tops that.

No. L'Equipe's one is running since 1946, and is the only one people care about (a bit). But,there is nothing official about it, simply the journalists from the newspaper making their thing.

 

I'm guessing that, in their minds, not every sports are made equals and thus one title in athletics (but not all of them)  > Fourcade's year in Biathlon.

    • Linn Gestblom (previously Persson) Will miss all season. Not recovered after surgery.
    • Greece and Portugal also have winter sports centres - but of course these are not homologated routes for World Cup competitions I have never been to Albania personally, so I don't know the country at all. I have been in southern Croatia, though, and there are mountains there but you definitely can't ski there (I was there in the summer, but it's also impossible in the winter). World cup taking place there only in Zagreb.    In general the case of Colturi and Kostelic is completely different: Colturi has no ties to Albania and Janica Kostelic was Croatian and didn't left their country even though at the beginning of her carrier (and also her brother Ivica) her father had to pay for everything and the federation's support was zero. This only changed later. I imagine that the Kostelic family had offers from other countries (Austria, Switzerland, Italy?) to compete for them, which were much richer (at the beginning of the 21st century Croatia was a very poor country and devastated by war). All the more respect for them because they were true Croatian patriots until the end. I can imagine the Colturi family in a similar situation... Her mother would probably negotiate with half of Alpine Europe for Lara to compete for them Which of course doesn't change the fact that the Italian federation completely gave a shit in this situation. They let such talent go in a situation where they hasn`t a single female athlete on the podium of the World Cup in slalom for a dozen or so years. In the giant slalom it's not much better either, only there the older athletes cloud the picture: Brignone and Bassino. However, behind these two there is absolutely nothing...
    • Atalanta is probably playing the most beautiful football in Europe right now: spectacular and effective. It's nice to watch and they don't have to spend a lot of money for it.   Inter is playing very economically. It's not impressive but it's consistently collecting points. It's also the only team in the Champions League that hasn't conceded a goal this season.   Milan played very poorly yesterday but they won. They have 9 points and are close to qualifying for the play-offs.
