You must be desperate because you're making basic mistakes. Zhu qualified under the women's TEAM short program. She fell under that program and took the entire Chinese team (7 other competitors) who were in 3rd place - down to 5th. Preventing an entire TEAM from medaling. So a) it wasn't just 3 out of 27 people who can medal and b) her failure became her team's failure which makes it even more pitiful. Thanks to her Japan is in the lead for Bronze and there's no way anyone but Russia and U.S. will take Silver and Gold for team medals (not even speaking on individuals). The lead is too far to catch up for a team medal with one program remaining.

Here's the U.S. celebrating its 2018 Bronze TEAM medal.

You must be really new to Olympic figure skating if you think the team medal means anything.  God bless you and your little bronze medal.

But you haven't answered the question.

Do you think only the athletes who have a reasonable chance to win should enter the competition?

In the competition that MATTERS, ladies' singles event, there will be thirty women competing.  Including a woman from Azerbaijan. And a woman from Finland.  And a woman from Australia.  Who have no path to medals, whose names no one knows except their countrymen.  They have no chance to win.  Do you think they shouldn't be there?  Do you think they should pack up and go home?[/quote]

The only medals the US took in 2018 were ice dance and team. So a half dozen of those people standing there would not be Olympic medalists otherwise. Be sure to let them know someone on DCUM thinks their once in a lifetime Olympic Bronze medal is inconsequential but just showing up for vibes is amazing! [/quote]
