  1. Van Gerwen: "He didn't win a single leg? I thought he won a leg in the first set. Huh, he wasn't good enough then today."
  2. Lethal Biscuit ain't so lethal today, 12-0 in legs
  3. Ah damn, I knew it I mean, not now, but now that you mention it I remember I once heard it on TV
  4. Definitely Singapore and the USA, I'm doubting about the first one. My guess would be England because I heard him say today his journey started in London, but I can't recall him playing for England (I do recall him playing for Singapore and the USA, so I have no doubts about those)
  5. Agreed, too bad he's spending 99% of his time being a softtip/electronic darts player instead of steel tip
  6. Lim is such a nice guy. Now in the interview after the match "I should have worn my high heels, then I would have made the nine dart finish" The interview mostly consisted of "this has been such an honour" and "I am happy/this has been so much fun", I hope we'll keep seeing him for many years to come
  7. 63 years old and throwing a 10 dart finish
  8. Paul Lim comes up a few millimeters shy of hitting a nine dart finish, 27 years (!) after he made history by doing so on the Embassy in 1990
  9. Steven Kruijswijk 2018: Tour + Vuelta (GC in the Tour I suppose) Robert Gesink 2018: Giro + Tour (both going for stage wins) So Kruijswijk, who is not a fan of heat, will do the two hot GC's. Gesink, who is fanastic in the heat but terrible in the cold, is going to do the coldest GC. Brilliant plan, this can't go wrong.
  10. Wow, Van der Voort annihilates Beaton, 4-0, after destroying Chisnall 3-0 early on
  11. Portela wins the 2nd set 1-1
  12. Exactly. Plus there's no biathlon in that time anyway, why not get some more competitive rhythm. Besides, Laukkanen has already proven more than once she's very much capable of being a serious World Cup-level cross-country skier in the sprint.
  13. That is sad.
  14. The Norwegian federation has selected ten athletes yesterday, six women, four men: Sweden has a decent selection already as well: And Finland has five names in their team so far:
  15. Sweden is going without Kalla and Nilsson: The first three men on Finland's list are going home after the Oberstdorf sprint, biathlete Laukkanen will only do the Lenzerheide sprint.
  16. And the schedule (it's only in German, but it's easy, Freistil = freestyle, klassisch = classic, Verfolgung = pursuit, bzw. = first the men's distance, then the women's distance)
  17. This got me thinking: Does anyone know the answer to this? Russia not going to the Olympics as 'Russia', would that also mean the 23rd ranked nation is now a top-22 nation? I doubt it, but still..
  18. Definitely choose biathlon Although it's a bit hard to follow who is doing well in interval start races, but I think in a World Cup that's made easier with screens and such, unlike in the IBU Cups. In the summer (southern winter) you can go to Mt Hotham in Australia and cheer on Team Australia/Brazil who are most likely training and competing there
  19. Sweden's head coach Wolfgang Pichler will not be accreditated for the Olympics due to his history with the Russian team a few years ago. http://www.biathlon-news.fr/?p=3071&lang=en
  20. I love that the dates are basically always the same, makes it easy to remember So, the schedule: Oberstdorf 29 December - Qualification 30 December - Competition 1 Garmisch-Partenkirchen 31 December - Qualification 1 January - Competition 2 Innsbruck 3 January - Qualification 4 January - Competiton 3 Bischofshofen 5 January - Qualification 6 January - Competition 4
  21. I would have tried my best if Bruna qualified, but since that's not happening...nah It's a million times easier to follow everything from home, so that has my preference then
  22. Wait, what on earth is this? I mean that page
