  1. 2) At the moment Guo is not a bigger medal contender than Harvey, Guo is 10th in the World Rankings, Harvey is 3rd. 3) You’re absolutely right, I’m just worried about how Mayer will do. 4) Why the hell would the US not send their best men’s basketball team? And before Canada, I would put both France, and Australia above them in odds, maybe even Spain as they didn’t even qualify for the Olympics last year, with a squad full of NBA talent.
  2. Grondin takes home bronze at the first snowboard cross World Cup stop of the season, in France.
  3. For I would say: 1. Swimming- Women’s 400IM (Summer McIntosh) 2. Breaking- BBoys (Phil Wizard) 3. Basketball- Women’s 3X3 4. Boxing- Tammara Thibeault (75kg) 5. Swimming- Women’s 400m Freestyle (Summer McIntosh) Eleanor Harvey is another one of the gold medal contenders, but with Lee Kiefer and Alice Volpi contending, not too sure she’s as big of a favorite as them. Edit: Men’s Decathlon is a special mention, with LePage just winning silver at this years World Athletics Championship, but then of course we also have the 2020 Olympic Champion Damian Warner. I’m just wondering since he was injured how will he recover from it, and so that is why I’m predicting Kevin Mayer to win gold. Plus, home crowd helps.
  4. Jack Crawford wins his first career World Cup men’s downhill medal, winning bronze in Beaver Creek, Alberta. He finished in a time of 1:42.88. Norway’s Alexsander Aamodt Kilde won his second downhill race this season in a cumulative time of 1:42.09 seconds, Switzerland’s silver medalist Marco Odermatt was just 0.06 seconds behind.
  5. King of mogul skiing strikes again, as Mikael Kingsbury captures his 75th career World Cup gold medal. Long time rival Japan’s Ikuma Horishima finished in second with a total score of 80.48, while Australia’s Matt Graham finished in third with a total score of 80.12 to take the bronze medal.
  6. World Champion, against Olympic Champion, and Mathilde Gros 🇫🇷 comes out on top to win the gold medal in women’s sprint at the UCI Track Cycling Champions League after a great battle against Kelsey Mitchell
  7. Maggie Coles-Lyster also won a bronze in the women’s elimination race. If this is any indication of future success, we could be winning a couple of medals come the 2024 Olympics. Our track cycling team has only been improving.
  8. Torquay Elite16 Medal Matches On the men’s side, Italy’s Carambula/Rangheri🇮🇹 defeat Lotman/Evans🇺🇸 in straight sets (21-15, 2-16) to win the bronze medal at the final Elite16 event of the season in Torquay, Australia. 8 monster blocks for Rangheri, an insane match stat for you. In the gold medal match, Frances’s Krou/Gautier Rat 🇫🇷 defeat home-crowd favorite Australia‘s Hodges/Schubert🇦🇺 (22-20, 23-21). Krou/Gauthier Rat would be firm favorites for the France beach volleyball Olympic quota should they keep their form (A bit of a suprise to see the Australian team make it this far, but then again most teams ended their season early to focus on the next season, big Olympic qualification period coming up) Meanwhile on the women’s side, Clancy/Mariafe 🇦🇺 delight the home crowd coming back from down a set to defeat American rising stars Kloth/Nuss 🇺🇸 in three sets (14-21, 21-19, 15-13), with both teams aiming to qualify for the 2024 Olympics. Taliqua Clancy led all scorers with 27 points. In the gold medal match, Americans Hughes/Cheng 🇺🇸 defeat another American duo Scoles/Flint 🇺🇸 (21-17, 21-11) to continue their insane run of form, winning three tournaments in a row without dropping a single set (AVP Huntington Beach, FIVB Torquay Challenge, FIVB Torquay Elite16)
  9. Cynthia Appiah steps onto her second World Cup monobob podium of the season claiming bronze in Park City, Utah. She won the silver medal behind fellow Canadian Bianca Ribi at the first World Cup of the season in Whistler, British Colombia. She finished with a cumulative time of 1:43.26 seconds, 0.33 behind American gold medalist Kailie Humphries (2022 Women’s Monobob Olympic Champion, event made it’s debut there) and 0.02 behind German silver medalist Lisa Buckwitz.
  10. Summer McIntosh!! An incredible 2022 season she’s been having as she lowers the Americas record in the women’s 400IM at the Us Open with a time of 4:28:61. She was 13 seconds ahead of the second place finisher. Kathryn Hanzle finishes in third, with a time of 4:46.56. Edit: 50m pool.
  11. With her second run she was the 18th fastest, yeah that’s not going to cut it.
  12. Mirela Rahneva destroys the track record on route to winning the second* #BMWIBSF World Cup race of the season in Park City, Utah. Defeated all four athletes who finished ahead of her at the Beijing Olympics (Hermann [GER]: 4th at the 2022 Olympics & WC 2nd, Bos [NED]: 3rd at the 2022 Olympics & WC 7th, Narracott [AUS]: 2nd at the 2022 Olympics & WC 18th, and Neise [GER] (1st at the 2022 Olympics & WC 6th)
  13. Auger-Aliassime is now perfect in 2022 team competitions!! (Davis Cup, ATP Cup, Laver Cup)
  14. Won't* You mean? That sucks though, do you know if he ruled out competing at the 2024 CAT Championships?
  15. 2022 Sitting Volleyball World Championships- Men’s Final The final is set, with host-nation Bosnia and Herzegovina 🇧🇦 taking on reining Paralympic Champions Iran 🇮🇷 with a Paris 2024 Paralympics men’s sitting volleyball quota up for grabs to whoever wins this gold medal match. Egypt 🇪🇬 will battle Brazil 🇧🇷 in the bronze medal match
  16. 2022 Sitting Volleyball World Championships- Women’s Semifinals 🇨🇦 v. 🇸🇮 🇺🇸 v. 🇧🇷 Gold medalists will book their NOC a ticket in women’s sitting volleyball at the 2024 Paralympics, in Paris, France!
  17. I don’t watch too much artistic gymnastics, but Canada has a chance of qualifying for the 2024 Olympics here. Right?
  18. Here’s how I put it: In my mind, breaking isn’t a sport. It is an art. There is no concrete evidence to ever suggest one dancer is better than another. There is no set technique for the B-Boys/B-Girls to follow, and there is no definition of a “good dancer”.
