Well, he received a lot of publicity after he competed at Pyeongchang, and some people started training, aiming to compete at the Olympics. Between late 2018 - early2020, between 3-5 skiers, a woman included, managed to attend cross country competitions in USA, Canada and even Finland, and this year finally one of them finished with less than 300 points in one of them. According to Chef of Mission, they will support cross country skiers all through the qualification period (as well as the alpine skiers and our skaters), so they can obtain a quota. I know Mexico is far from expecting a medal at the Winter Games in the next 20 years at least, but I think establishing a small group of athletes capable of fighting for a spot is worth it.

W Alpine Combined moved to next Monday February 15th

Thanks for the support fam The last 3-4 weeks were absolutely insane, I'm so overworked that I hope I find the energy and brain power to enter the Biathlon prediction contest At least I'll have an excuse for finishing last

First Relay Squads are out ... Norway Laegreid - Bö J - Eckhoff - Roeiseland France Jacquelin - Fillon Maillet - Chevalier A - Simon

MEXICO Ski Sports Alpine Skiing (2) - One of each gender. Mexican born Rodolfo Dickson (a native of Puerto Vallarta, adopted by Canadians) already has achieved qualification in Giant Slalom, and currently, Sarah Schleper just needs another valid result in that same event to qualify for her 5th Olympics (first 3 representing her birth country). No other athlete is near the eligilibity right now, but von Hohenlohe is still competing at 62 so who knows Cross Country Skiing (1 ) - Probably the only winter discipline in Mexico that had a boom after Pyeongchang, with many people giving it a try; however, only one competitor, Jonathan Soto has managed to score less than 300 in a race during 2020/2021. The Mexican federation is targeting to have another participation in 2022, so if he manages to repeat that result at World Championships and some other competitions, he might join the Mexican delegation. Ski Jumping (0) - No active competitors Nordic Combined (0) - No active competitors Freestyle Skiing (0) - Only an active athlete in Moguls, but he won't qualify. Snowboarding (0) - No active competitors Biathlon (0) - A couple men made their debut at this sport last month, but they obviously will not make it. Skating Sports Speed Skating (0) - I was surprised to discover we had a couple of skaters back in 2002-2006, but obviously weren't good enough to qualify, and sadly, we'll have to wait for an Olympic debut, as there are no active skaters. Short Track Speed Skating (0) - No Mexican skater has made their debut in this discipline. Figure Skating (1) - If Donovan Carrillo improvement continued despite the pandemic, he could be the first Mexican skater in the Olympics in 30 years; On the women's side, Andrea Montesinos is still learning and given the level of powerhouses, it'll be quite difficult for her to have a real shot. Sleigh Sports Luge (0) - No way, as Mexico isn't even a member of FIL Skeleton (0) - There aren't training facilities for the sport in the country since 2011, so all interest has been lost, sadly. Bobsleigh (0) - Read above Team Sports Curling (0) - Mexican teams are still newbies in the scene, so no chance. Ice Hockey (0) - Mexican men have already been eliminated. Our women side can only hope to avoid big defeats against the Ducth & Poles and beat Turkey in October. Total Optimistic Prediction - (4) Total Pessimistic Prediction - (0) Total Realistic Prediction - (2)

And both U-23 and junior races count for the nation's ranking. Which is probably why Turkey is there with four junior girls, and Mongolia with two, Lithuania with four and so on. The fight is on.

W Super-G moved to 13:00 CET (Only in case If the organizers will be able to prepare the piste) M Super_G officially moved to Thursday, that means the 1st M Downhill training originally schedulled for Thrusday is cancelled, there will be only M Downhills Trainings this time. Still nothing new about eventual postponing of todays cancelled W Alpine Combined.

Damn But hey, Bianca wins her first match since 16 months

ROMANIA Team Size Prediction for Winter Olympic Games 2022 Beijing Ski Sports Alpine Skiing (2-3) - Ania Caill(D, SG), and maybe another woman in S, GS; and one men Cross Country Skiing (3) - 2 M and 1 W for sure (Paul Pepene, Petrica Hogiu and one woman) Ski Jumping (1) - maybe Daniela Haralmbie Nordic Combined (0) - No active competitors Freestyle Skiing (0) - No active competitors Snowboarding (0) - i don't think we have a chance to qualify in this discipline. Biathlon (6) - 1W (Chirkova, Cotrus or Marton) and maybe we can qualify our men's team (Puchianu, Coltea, Buta, Florea, Oskin) Skating Sports Speed Skating (1) - Mihaela Hogas in 500m and maybe 1000m Short Track Speed Skating (0) - ... Figure Skating (1) - Maybe Julia Sauter Sleigh Sports Luge (4-6) - We should qualify 1 participant in all events, maybe 2 Men's or Women's Skeleton (1) - 1M (Enache or Pacioianu) Bobsleigh (8) - We should qualify in all events (2W - Grecu, 2M - Tentea, 4M - Tentea, Monobob - Grecu or Popescu who is the Olympic Youth winner) Team Sports Curling (0) - No chance. Ice Hockey (0) - No. Total Optimistic Prediction - (35) Total Pessimistic Prediction - (20-22) Total Realistic Prediction - (26-28)

But they lost men's singles in luge which is a huge blow for them for sure.

And the 1st upset goes to.......Angie Kerber she's lost to Pera from the US 6-0, 6-4

Finally it's time for some good tennis

Germany with 12 medals through 6 events. I think it’s safe to say they dominate the sliding events.

@Matej + Gleb Piskunov ??

Slovensko Team Size Prediction for Winter Olympic Games 2022 Beijing Ski Sports Alpine Skiing (7) - Baring health issues and injuries, Petra Vlhová and both Žampa bros should be safe, thanks Petra our federation will surely be allowed to send at least 3 more young girls to experience the games and with the Žampa´s we will send also for sure at least one more male to the games. So I expect 7, but it can be more or obviously much less as well, so we´ll see. Cross Country Skiing (2) - 1 M and 1 W for sure, may be 1 or 2 M or W as well like in the previous games, but I don´t think it will happen this time. Ski Jumping (0) - Sadly not yet. Maybe 1 referee will travel for mark judging Nordic Combined (0) - ...haha... Freestyle Skiing (1) - Zuzana Stromková I believe will be there this time, again..baring injury Snowboarding (2) - Klaudia Medlová, baring injury, will be there for sure, and I have a feeling we will send also someone else this time maybe her younger sister Zuzana or even some male participant perhaps Bačo in Parallel but it is obvioulsy not for granted.. Biathlon (10) - Even if our biathlon situation is really bad now, I would say historically low, I think we should be able even with our current athletes be able to qualify full teams in both genders. But again it can also perfectly end in a disaster and only individual quota or two among mens, the female team should be fine thanks Fialková sisers I guess and hope... Skating Sports Speed Skating (0) - as soon as the elephants will fly we will send someone Short Track Speed Skating (1) - One of our biggest present era sport talent Petra Rusnáková will hopefully qualify. Figure Skating (1) - After the retirement of Lukáš Csolley, we will probably qualify only a girl in the Womes singles competiton, perhaps Nicole Rajčová again if she´ll decide to aim for Beijing. Sleigh Sports Luge (4) - We should qualify 1 particpant in all events I believe, maybe with some luck even 2 guys for the Mens singles to raise the amount of 5 athletes. Skeleton (0) - Even a participation in fencing is more realistic than this ffs Bobsleigh (1) - Seriously no idea, maybe our M team will do everything to qualify and perhaps will succeed, who knows, but if I can bet on someone I would go for Viktoria Čerňanská qalifying in the Monobob debut, among the juniors she was one of the best in the world if not the best even...so who knows...okay, I´ll write her..ho ahead: 1 in Bobsleigh Team Sports Curling (0) - No way, the only chance can be the mixed doubles but we will need a 48 teams Olympic tournament for that Ice Hockey (25) - Jesus, God, Allah, Buddha, Jehova, Yahweh, Manitou, Hallowed are the Ori...whoever...Just please, please, please, please, please in your greatness and mercy do not allow this catastrophe, national shame, tragedy and the worst possible nightmare to happen and help our mens team to qualify... amen Total Optimistic Prediction - (54-58) Total Pessimistic Prediction - (20-25) you know without who....pooh, pooh, pooh ! don´t say it ! Total Realistic Prediction - (48-52)
