Yess, finally! I'm much more fond of the Winter Olympics than Summer. I'm actually surprised that the Games will take place, considering that the pandemic still isn't over, and with delta spreading, who knows what will be in China in winter? But in any case, I'm really looking forward to it. My favorites are figure skating, freestyle skiing, cross-country skiing, and, of course, ski jumping.
I wonder who's going to nail it this year: the US, Norway, Germany, or maybe Russia?

just curious, which country is usually a strong contender in the Winter Olympics and what sport they usually dominate? I don't really follow it since most of the sport that are in the winter Olympics is usually not well known in my country and my country hasn't really participated that much in it so my interest in the event is not that great(no offense to the huge fans of The Winter Olympic) compare to the Summer Olympics.

It's strange that less than half year separate two Olympics, but we all know reason of it.
In Winter Olympics my favourite events is ice hockey and biathlon. Bobsleigh is also interesting to watch.
It's great news that NHL players will be allowed to play in Olympics, so we will see highest level hockey. Without NHL players 2018 tournament wasn't such exciting.
It's only pity that same like Tokyo, Beijing timezone isn't good to watch events in Europe and most events will be held in the morning in our timezone.
