Unfortunately the participant total has dropped to 58, as snowboarder Toms Vasins didn't finish well enough to earn the trip.

Thank you for the well written article about Latvia's history in the Winter Olympics. It was upsetting to once again not be able to view the Latvian athletes enter the opening ceremonies. Obviously the NBC TV Network in the US does not think we are important enough to be televised here in the USA.

I bet Latvia has the only father and daughter competing in the Olympics: Ilmars Bricis (biathlon) and Anete Brice (cross-country skiing).

Es velu visu to labako Latvijas sportistiem. I totally agree that it was very upsetting, once again, not to be able to view the Latvijan athletes entering the opening ceremonies, especially since so many were in attendance/participating, etc. Yet they showed countries with only 1 participant?? NBC TV Network seems to have a problem with Latvija??

Velejam visu to labako Latvijas 'ziemas' sportistiem no talajas Australijas. Maniem deliem ( 8 gadu vecuma ) bija liels prieks redzet Latviesus ienakot stadijona, atklasanas ceremonija. Caur musu Foxtel raidijumam vini citigi skatas vai Latviesi piedalas. Viens puika pat raudaja kad Martins Dukurs vineja Sudrabu medalu. Tagad skatisim bobsled. Visu to labako.

Bitter Sweet World Hockey Championships for Latvia
With everything said and done, Latvia placed 10th at this year’s International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF) World Championships. Victories against Germany and Italy as well as a goal differential advantage over Germany and Switzerland who finished with the same number of points was enough to propel Latvia from last year’s 13th place finish to 10th.

Vasks compilation of works exceptional
Though Latvian composer Pēteris Vasks has achieved success and fame with compositions for solo instruments, string quartets, orchestras, piano, among many other instruments, some of his most powerful and memorable works are his choir songs. The addition of text and language (particularly the Latvian language), in combination with the exceptional skill of the world-class Latvian Radio Choir, make his choir songs particularly haunting and emotionally affecting.
