Beijing 2022 Says Goodbye...
And, come back to this blog tomorrow for a roundup of what's worth remembering from the athletes and their accomplishments. There's a lot! Also, the Games & Rings Tumblr feed has some of my favorite photos from sports photographers over the two weeks' action, too.
And Milano Cortina 2026 Says Hello
What's New?
All the sports events at Beijing 2022 are scheduled to be held in 2026. Plus, there is the debut of one new sport, ski mountaineering, with five new events. Will there be additions to existing sports - synchronized skating, more mixed events, for example? The full program is set to be finalized in June 2022.
