Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics begin in February
The 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics are set to begin on February 4th with the opening ceremony airing live at 6:30 am ET in the U.S. on NBC, full coverage of all the Olympic events will air across NBC’s Networks and digital platforms including NBCSports.com and Peacock. Given the 13-hour time difference between Beijing and the U.S. Eastern Time Zone, Olympic events like the opening ceremony will air live, while many other Olympic events are scheduled to air on tape delay to be viewed later in primetime, in the U.S. The XXIV Olympic Winter Games, coming just 6 months after the Tokyo Summer Olympics which were postponed from 2020 to the Summer of 2021 due to the coronavirus pandemic, have been determined to move forward despite mounting speculation of a possible postponement with fears of a resurging pandemic.
U.S. athletes expected to represent the 2022 Olympic Team for the fifth time include snowboarders Shaun White and Lindsey Jacobellis, skeleton slider Katie Uhlaender, and curler John Shuster. Individual U.S. gold medalists from the 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympics will return to compete at Beijing 2022, including halfpipe skier David Wise, Alpine skier Mikaela Shiffrin and snowboarders Jamie Anderson, Chloe Kim, Red Gerard and White. The Beijing Winter Olympics will debut 7 new Olympic events including Men’s and Women’s Big Air (Freestyle Skiing), Mixed Team Snowboard Cross, Mixed Team Aerials, Mixed Team Ski Jumping and more.
