Ukraine wants to host winter Olympics in future so this medal was required

Choi finally wins gold in these games So happy for her. Was hoping for this result or at worst that Schulting doesn't win gold so this is perfect. Kikuchi Someone give her a medal. skaters forgetting that race was over will be remembered for years lol.

Pretty close to my prediction . Ida Lien was kinda sure that she'll not be on penalty loop but would have been ideal . Knotten didn't let the team down. But Penalty Loop Queen Eckhoff made it for their good performances.

What a joke, Germany will be in top 5 at worst and yeah those bronze medals no longer change your position now.

I'm expecting a lot from Knotten tomorrow If she can somehow have one or two penalty loops they would be at least 3mins behind the leader hopefully some top nation. Then Eckhoff will ski fast but be on penalty loop at least once, Ida Lien maybe a few spare rounds and ideally 1 penalty loop with slow skiing hopefully then followed by Roiseland who will have too much to make up.. If things go according to this tomorrow we will have interesting race.

Germany is winning too many golds in sliding sports, keep some for smaller nations

French and Norwegians liking the pursuit for sure . I agree with @FancyFenchel may be a separate 6km sprint qualification at least for world championships, olympics or as alternate they can follow world team challenge idea . They can use same sprint for pursuit but decrease the gaps by half resulting in more even field.

IBU is working on different formats for Super Sprint I just hope it replaces this event where medals are based on performance of some other event

As expected results.... Had Sola missed one less in sprint she'd have been on podium , pretty quick today, hopefully in mass start

Thanks! But I am actually cheering for Norway to miss today I'm just sick of their domination but I'm afraid the ski speed isn't there. The 2nd fastest in women's sprint will start 1:52 behind so no chance

I'll chose Roiseland and JT Boe since the event didn't start. As far as voting times are considered the poll was published at midnight and deadline ended early morning here

Oh well I can't even laugh at this because Netherlands aren't winning 14/14 ,the maximum could be 8 and realistic 6-7G. No US isn't dominating snowboard at all. Japan, Czech Republic, Austria were some of nations who won gold among those events I watched.And ice hockey is a team sport where I don't mind any 1 team dominating.

Sliding sports have become Unwatchable now I think we need a rule Similiar to youth Olympic Games. One nation can participate in any 2 events each in luge and bob and 1 in skeleton. But the events they participate they can have 3 in that if they qualify. It's crazy but has put a lot of money in technology making their sleds the best in the world. Time for to break the dominance today it's tough despite the lead if German wins again I don't plan to watch any sliding in future except the Sigulda World Cups every season.

What do you think will be the winning margin ? 0.5s ?1s? 2s

So how's everything going on in the country? Excited for tomorrow? Have the celebrations begun?

Our very own Petra Vhlova Closest to her maybe Shiffrin and out side chance.

I didn't say Finland is better than sweden but Sweden v Finland for gold in women's team sprint classical then maybe Russia, Norway, US. And why they didn't come today perhaps saving energy for a event they are one of the favourites for on Thursday

since it's independence in 1994 won a medal in speed skating at 1994 edition. Then onwards they have won in only 2 disciplines - Aerials and Biathlon They are not having the right waxes this time around I guess. So individual and maybe an outside chance in mass start for medal else no medal these games. Alimbekava missed it yesterday luckily Smolski has done it today. If the Olympics would be in Austria and biathlon in Hochfilzen Smolski would have won gold by around 1-1:30 mins advantage coz they train there ample opportunity to research on the best waxes.

I thought Finland is favoured in the classic events along with Sweden due to Matintalo / Parmakoski / Niskanen

The chinese can still say that others came on their way causing obstruction 😂

Exactly.. From 5 golds and 17 medals getting 0 in next edition unbelievable

Personal best excellent Kagayam 108 Then Nathan

Oh ok. I had this doubt from 2018.. And what about the protest I hope it gets upheld.

Why does the name sound Chinese

Women's 500m was good. But please don't put a short track poll again I don't want to guess because we all know china may do anything to win. I was watching short track with my friends and we were really amazed by the Korean guy's move and for us Hwang will always be the Olympic champion. Now the interest is going coz we kinda know that if you are behind the Chinese u will get penalty if you overtake them but if they overtake you they won't be given any penalty. Great justice.
