CHINA STARTS STRONG AT THE WORLD CUP

MARQUETTE, Mich. - China dominated the competition, advancing three men and three women in the competition in both the 500 and 1500 meters on Thursday (Nov. 12) at the four-day World Cup Short Track speedskating competition at the Berry Events Center. The event is the final Olympic qualifier for short track skaters to earn spots in various race distances for their nations at the Winter Games.

Individually, Si-Bak Sung of Korea had a great start to the competition. He was the only athlete to land in the top three for both distances. He was second overall in the 1500m, finishing at 2:18.016 and third in the 500m at 41.427.

Italy and Korea also advanced three men to the 1500m semifinals, which will take place on Saturday, Nov. 14. Canada and Korea also qualified two women to advance. In all, 19 men and 19 women will race in the semifinals.

The United States had a good showing in the men's 1500m, as well. Apolo Anton Ohno said he was trying to pace himself for the rest of the competition, but he still landed at the top of the rankings with a time of 2:16.157.

"Today and tomorrow are really long days, so we try to conserve our energy when we can," he said. "As long as you qualify, that's what's important. The goal is to get through this competition safely and get on the podium."

Teammate Travis Jayner was ranked third at 2:16.716.

In the women's 1500m, China's Yang Zhou was the top performer with a time of 2:24.532. She was followed by Katherine Reutter of the United States at 2:24.532 and Katerina Novotna of the Czech Republic at 2:23.283.

In the 500 meters, Canada and Korea joined the China men in advancing three skaters to the semifinals field of 24. Joining China's female trio in the 29-skater semifinal, are three Korean and Dutch skaters.

Canadians Charles Hamelin and Francois-Louis Tremblay ranked first and second in the 500m after the day's competition. Hamelin crossed the finish line at 41.242 and Tremblay in 41.203 seconds.

China's Meng Wang clocked a 43.675 time to lead the women in that distance.

Teammate Qiuhong Liu finished second at 43.787. Marianne St. Gelais of Canada came in third at 43.980.

The World Cup competition continues at noon on Friday, Nov. 13, starting with the 1000-meter races. Athletes will also skate in the women's 3000m and the men's 5000m relays.

Canada will send three skaters in men's, women's 500 short-track to Vancouver
November 12, 2009 11:53 p.m.

MARQUETTE, Mich. - Canada will be able to enter the maximum three athletes in each the men's and women's 500-metre short-track speedskating events at the 2010 Vancouver Olympics after a successful opening day Thursday at the World Cup stop in Marquette, Mich.

Charles Hamelin, Francois-Louis Tremblay and Olivier Jean all qualified for Saturday's heats in the men's 500, while Marianne St-Gelais, Jessica Gregg and Kalyna Roberge all qualified in the women's event.

The skaters with the top 32 combined results from Marquette and last week's World Cup stop in Montreal earn Olympic berths.

With Canadian skaters excelling in Montreal, including gold medals for Hamelin and Roberge, they only needed to qualify for the heats to make the cut.

"They will all be racing on Saturday, and all of our 500-metre positions for 2010 are now pretty much secured, so that's one thing we can stop thinking about," said team leader Yves Hamelin.

Charles Hamelin of Ste-Julie, Que., Montreal's Tremblay and Olivier Jean of Lachenaie, Que., each won their preliminary races Thursday. Hamelin (41.242 seconds) and Tremblay (41.415) skated the two fastest times of the day.

St-Gelais of St-Felicien, Que., and Edmonton's Gregg won their preliminaries, while Roberge of St-Etienne-de-Lauzon, Que., finished second in her race.

World Cup weekend preview
The Globe and Mail
By James Christie, The Globe and Mail Posted Thursday, November 12, 2009 10:36 PM ET

It's a busy weekend on the World Cup circuit, with skiing, sliding, skating and curling on the schedule.

Here's a look at events and athletes to look out for over the next couple of days:

Short-track speed skating

The World Cup circuit moves on to Marquette, Mich., this weekend and the bidding for places on Canada's Olympic team continues. Charles Hamelin is coming off the best competition of his career, winning four medals - including two golds - during the short-track speedskating World Cup event in Montreal this past weekend. The 500-metre world champ ranks as Canada's best Olympic hope.

Olivier Jean is out to make amends for a disqualification in the 1,000 metres last week when he stepped in front of a German skater.

There is more to the last article, but I only posted the short track part.

[bubblebuttsbabe]

Before I forget - Happy Birthday, Mr. Tremblay! :]

[geri]

Once again the ISU can not even get the live results working....SCREAM.

[bubblebuttsbabe]

I'm watching White Collar while I wait for ISU to catch up. No sense in posting results when they're not even close to done.

Jean, really?! What is up with the DQ's?!

[musicalmom]

Think he's trying too hard...he want's it so badly he takes unnecessary risks sometimes...also he's a bigger guy...might that make a difference? more of him to bump someone? I know it sounds silly but I've been wondering....he did alot of DQ'in even in the Oly qualifying....
Patience and finesse don't seem to be his strong suits, although he skates beautirfully and fast when he's on.
What do you think?

Hamelin leads the 1000m qualifiers in Marquette with Ohno in second

CANADA'S Charles Hamelin looks the man to beat after setting the fastest 1000m qualifying time at the ISU Short Track Speed Skating World Cup in Marquette.

The 25-year old scooped double gold at the world cup event in Montreal last weekend and looked in equally dominant form in America as he romped through the three qualifying races to book his place in Sunday's heats.

Hamelin's time of 1:25.708 minutes set the pace in Michigan but America's Olympic 500m champion Apolo Anton Ohno, who also won all three of his qualifying races in confident style, wasn't far behind with a best time of 1:25.875 mins.

Meanwhile, Katherine Reutter was the fastest of the women's 1000m qualifiers in Marquette.

The American, who won the 1000m World Cup in Beijing in September, won both of her races with her time of 1:30.966 mins leading the way.

China's Yang Zhou, who took 1000m gold in Montreal last week, was the next fastest with a best time of 1:32.146 mins.

And there was good news for Great Britain's Elise Christie who qualified for Sunday's heats by virtue of two second-placed finishes.

Three British men came through two races but ultimately fell at the final hurdle of qualification.

With the top two from each final race to go through to Sunday's heats, Jon Eley and Tom Iveson both finished third and Paul Stanley fourth.
