The 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics are upon us, and we are proud to say that Florida has 5 athletes representing the state.
This year’s Team USA is composed of 223 Americans, ready to compete across 109 events. This is the second-largest Team USA in any Winter Olympic Games, falling only behind the 228 athletes in Pyeongchang in 2018.
The states with the most athletes in Beijing are California with 29, Colorado and Minnesota with 23, Utah with 16, Illinois with 13 and Wisconsin with 12.
The full list of states without representation on Team USA are Alabama, Arkansas, Delaware, Washington D.C., Hawaii, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi, Nebraska, New Mexico, North Carolina, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Tennessee and West Virginia.
So, without further ado let’s take a look at the members of Team USA coming out of Florida. Unfortunately, it appears they’re competing against each other.
