Scottish athletes make up more than a third of the Team GB competing in the Winter 2022 Olympics.
The full Team GB lineup was announced on January 24 with 50 athletes confirmed to be heading to Beijing for the games.
Although it is Britain’s smallest team for the Winter Games since 2010 in Vancouver, when Amy Williams won the only medal in the women’s skeleton, there are still a few impressive Scots athletes confirmed to appear.
Here are all the Scottish athletes going for gold in the 2022 Winter Olympics.

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
