  • Martin Fourcade's is a biathlon legend. However his legacy on the sport is bigger than biathlon. From when the Frenchman broke onto the scene in 2010 at the Vancouver Olympics to his reign of seven straight overall World Cup victories, Fourcade was the man to beat in Biathlon. Today he continues his influence on the sporting world as an Olympic athlete rep and continues to host the Martin Fourcade Nordic Festival.

      @@BrianHalligan-USA Bryan, I asked for your personal opinion. You're also against the return of Russian athletes, aren't you? We Russians never forbid foreign athletes to participate in competitions in Russia, regardless of what actions their states commit

      @@user-wh6wn6cm1r my personal opinion is I want the best athletes to compete. However if there are governmental actions higher (grander) than biathlon that IOC feels warrants suspension then it is what it is. I don't have enough information to know if that is the best action for the situation.
      I feel for the athletes who probably have nothing to do with the situation and just want to race. I have sympathy for them.

      I think he is greatest biathlonist ever.
      Ole 25 seasons
      Martin 12 seasons
      He would beat every ole's records easily if he would still perform.

    Banning Russian athletes or not shaking their hands at competition since the war broke out does not make any sense. Athletes are so far removed from reality and have nothing at all to do with the actions of their countries. On another note, Fourcade is the GOAT.
