First medals up for grabs at Beijing Winter Olympics with cross-country skiing in the women's 7.5-plus-7.5-kilometre skiathlon
The Games will run until February 20 and are taking place inside a vast"closed loop" bubble designed to thwart the coronavirus.
The first gold medals of the Beijing Winter Olympics are up for grabs at the Winter Olympics as hosts China hope that the sport will roar to the fore after a troubled build-up dominated by coronavirus.

Kilde's American girlfriend Mikaela Shiffrin meanwhile admitted she would be disappointed to leave Beijing without a medal, but warned it was impossible to have a flawless Games.
