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.
Following in the footsteps of those who have come before to forge their own Winter Olympic history.
