I predicted France Germany Russia So close

Fourcade is a monster.

Slovakia

Yay, Bloeman hit the wall. Gonna be a medal for Michael!

Bergama will have his revenge on 10000m

Michael

Swings

Great race for Sverre

And still in the lead.

It's a victory for Thorup

To be honest, I get bored by medal ceremonies at big events, whatever the order is. That's why for example I prefer the first few days of Athletics Worlds, because the last two days are just ceremony after ceremony.

That was the practice at most of the Olympics (as recently as 2000/2002).

Two medals for the Dutch in 3000m. That already puts them ahead of their Sochi 2014 count.

Apparently he suffered punctured lung and internal bleeding, but he is in stable condition now. http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/other-sports/horror-ski-crash-sees-olivier-9781298

New Zealand's Wendi Williamson & Dejavu have won the Asia/Pacific regional final in dressage last weekend and have thus qualified for the WC final in Omaha. This is the first time in history of WC (established in 1986) that a Kiwi rider has qualified for final. However, going all the way to Nebraska for one competition is not an easy decision for her, but hopefully she will go. In any case, New Zealand is building a very nice team in dressage, they will certainly turn a few heads at the WEG next year.

Wait, what? You are actually cheering for a Dutch in speed skating?

Max Ullrich joined the party at that jump... He is fine luckily, but the WCh is over for him, meaning that we will not have any representative in men's combined, what is a crime.

I see that Korea did some new shopping.

Zubčić 31st, not bad. He had the 3rd fastest speed in the bottom part.

In the meantime, Pita Taufatofua is preparing for WCh in Lathi.

Meanwhile, her fake wrestling champion (among other things) husband is very much on the way of qualifying, Also, a Montenegrin XC skier was within 300 pts for the first time.
