Llop has been impressive in junior World Cups though He definitely had a very good medal chance, although mostly Yamamoto and Diniz were bigger favourites and quite clearly the top-2 in terms of what they've shown so far.

Besides all of this, he very much shows that he should be 'easily' capable of qualifying for big events in the years to come if he keeps it up.

- Dahlmeier's top level debut, bringing Germany from 8th to 1st in the world championships relay - Häcki vs Öberg at the 2016 junior world championships - The 2016 Youth Olympics single mixed relay, China beating Norway - Lowell Bailey's world title This win is going on my list of all-time favourite biathlon moments.

Kaisa of all people winning a competition like this That was arguably one of the most impressive shootings I've ever seen!

Yep, keeping your head cool is important in a sport like this.

Let's go Kaisa

Diniz seemed to have a pretty decent medal chance, but apparently crashed after a good opening. Gold for Yamamoto, Llop takes silver for Spain and Colombia's Amaya misses out by a few tenths and finishes on a very respectable 4th place.

Meh, Yamamoto kicked Llop out of gold.

Eckhoff's first shot didn't even hit the whole board And five misses for Paja Fialkova, drinks on her tonight.

4 riders to go in the men's 500m, Nil Llop of Spain and Diego Amaya of Colombia in first and third position.

Too bad this is the weather and these are the snow conditions, but the atmosphere is once again awesome

The Chinese women missed out on the team sprint final today by 0,1 second.

Hello medal table

6th place for New Zealand's Campbell Wright in the biathlon yesterday, with more misses than everyone in front of him. Told you this kid's worth paying attention to

I don't know, but maybe Chilean and Andorran athletes can get good FIS points easier than Norwegians?

Mostly I'm just sad for athletes who are pretty much told they're competing in a major event, when the own ruling authority of said event just doesn't give two fucks about it.

Inexplicable.

The speed skating won't be shown anywhere right? I guess a 400m track was too hard to cover with cameras

2015 bikes runner-up Paulo Gonçalves of Portugal, four time top-10 finisher, has passed away aged 40 in today's stage.

Top half in handball, leading in YOG, what a year

Today I learned Lappartient is apparently more than only UCI president

That was one weird men's giant slalom Awesome result for Zubcic

Yeah, but that has entirely nothing to do with what I reacted to ("Unlucky Ukraine , they always shoot their planes")
