  1. At least a Bratislava Olympics would be a fitting home for Slovakia’s most popular sport, golf.
  2. Honnestly a little surprised at how few winter sports Russian athletes changed citizenship.
  3. Justin Trudeau has resigned as party leader and will resign as prime minister of Canada once the Liberal Party choses a new leader. Once a new leader in selected there will likely be elections shortly after.
  4. A further update: https://skiracing.com/cyprien-sarrazin-recovery-bormio-crash/ There is optimism about his recovery in general, which is great news, but it’s far from certain that he’ll ever ski again.
  5. Reminded that the mixed doubles world will be in my old hometown of Fredericton :D
  6. Yup! Other than the teams, who realistically had no shot, they were my favorites. And I think Curling Canada will be pretty happy with this result as well.
  7. I mean, they do still need to grab the quota for Canada :P They were the best team all week, especially impressive that they beat Homan and Botcher convincingly twice (the score of the final is a bit deceptive). They are going to be a big contender in Cortina.
  8. Peterman and Gallant qualify for the final. Weagle and Epping will face Homan and Botcher in the semifinals.
  9. And that's relevant to the 2030 games how? Will the French Alps cancel in solidarity? (Also this has been posted in a bunch of threads already)
  10. It does look extremely likely to be one of those three teams. Peterman / Gallant do seem to be the team in form so far this week, at this point I think it would be a mild upset if they don’t win.
  11. Peterman / Gallant and Weagle / Epping both qualify for the 1-2 game. The other four teams will play-off for a spot in the 3-4 game.
  12. The six teams that made the playoff: First seeds: Brittany Tran / Rylan Kleiter, Jocelyn Peterman / Brett Gallant Second seeds: Lisa Weagle / John Epping and Rachel Homan / Brendan Bottcher Third seeds: Jennifer Jones / Brent Laind and Jaelyn Cotter: Jim Cotter The first and second seeds play for a spot in the 1-2 Page playoff, the losers will play the third seeds for a spot in the 3-4 Page playoff. One of the playoff is Peterman and Gallant vs Homan and Bottcher, which might very well be a preview of the grand final.
  13. Netball has basically no chance on gender equality grounds.
  14. If Coe wins they will definitively try to host the games in Saudi Arabia at some point, but 2036 seems too early (esp with SA also having the World Cup in 2034).
  15. Simon Amman hasn't retired yet? O.O Is he, like, aiming to do two SLC Olympics?
  16. Reportedly the light was also bad.
  17. Cyprien Sarrazin suffered a major crash training in Bormio. He is conscious, but will need to undergoe surgery to address a brain bleed.
  18. Sophie Hediger, a 2022 Olympian in snowboardcross, has died in an avalanch.
  19. If she no longer belongs it will sort itself out pretty quickly.
  20. With the following restrictions: * one skater / pair per event * no team event * can only qualify from the last chance qualification event
  21. You can view the nations cup ranking (which will be what most of the quotas are determined by) here: https://www.biathlonworld.com/standings?DisciplineId=NC I'm assuming the individual Olympic qualifying points list is only starting next winter.
  22. Obviously Reagan Smith is in another league in this event, but what an impressive International debut for Summer in that distance.
  23. No need to constantly bash Modern Pentathlon like that!
