he's officially back...and he'll be worse than ever!  

World Athletics announce the World Athletes of the Year.  Big awards go to Letsile Tebogo and to Sifan Hassan. 
 
Women’s World Athlete of the Year: Sifan Hassan (NED)
Men’s World Athlete of the Year: Letsile Tebogo (BOT)
Women’s track: Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone (USA)
Women’s field: Yaroslava Mahuchikh (UKR)
Women’s out of stadium: Sifan Hassan (NED)
Men’s track: Letsile Tebogo (BOT)
Men’s field: Mondo Duplantis (SWE)
Men’s out of stadium: Tamirat Tola (ETH)
Women’s Rising Star: Sembo Almayew (ETH)
Men’s Rising Star: Mattia Furlani (ITA)
 
 
 
Seems a bit strange to me - OK, there is a case for Tebogo over Duplantis who can basically win every year, but for me Manuchikh beating an almost 30 year old WR beats winning Olympic Marathon Gold.

Salt Lake 2021/22, in the women's 500m

Last year team sprint in Québec

Salt Lake 2021/22, in the women's 500m

I would prefer additional slaloms. I am not a huge fan of these mixed team events.

The heart of Diggins on display once again. She seemed out of it on the second to last climb, but found her second life on the final one and bypassed the two Norwegians like nothing. Johaug will need some time to get back into her terminator form.

Great day for our Polish friends
Ziomek-Nogal won the women's 500m (Frist victory for Poland in the 2024-25 winter season in every sport), with a 3rd place for another Poland's skater, Wójcik

Eurosport+ (Or D+)

I would add Parallel Slalom to the olympic programme. It's much more entertaining than some events which are already there. And there would be some additional chances for a good result for Team Poland i guess heh

Old-style standing shoot from Dorro!  

It's so strange how QFM lost his shooting accuracy these last two seasons! 
Congrats ! So happy to see biathlon back. 😊
