The Russian Olympic Committee has released the list of 9 athletes chosen for Beijing 2022. Among these stand out important names such as those of Loginov, Latypov and Reztsova. Overall, the Russians boast a solid and decidedly medal team, especially in the relay races. But even on an individual level they could do ... serious damage. Khalili and Reztsova have already made it to the podium this season taking the lowest step in Anterselva and Le Grand Bornand, respectively. Loginov is certainly the most important card, already capable of collecting heavy medals at world level and winner of the Oberhof sprint, while Latypov represents the most fit athlete in the season, at least before the positivity at Covid.
But it is in the relays where Russia has managed to seize the most prestigious results with seven podiums in nine participations in today's season. Below is the list of selected athletes.
RUSSIA
Alexander Loginov
Said Karimulla Khalili
Maxim Tsvetkov
Eduard Latypov
Kristina Reztsova
Svetlana Mironova
Irina Kazakevich
Valeria Vasnetsova
Uliana Nigmatullina
As for the Czech Republic, there are no significant news, but the interest is more on the two leading biathletes of this nation: Michal Krcmar already silver in the sprint in Korea and Marketa Davidova, fresh winner of the crystal ball in the Individual, as well as having brought home the first test of the season in Oestersund.
In themselves, the Czechs have a constantly evolving team and for the relays there are more possibilities in the women's field, where on the whole they have already shown that they do good things without forgetting the world bronze two years ago.
Here are the ten names selected by the Czech Olympic Committee.

Michal Krcmar
Marketa Davidova

Eva Puskarcikova
