It is cold because the outside gaze toward the women's 3,000m relay, which used to be called the "impregnable" wall of Korean short track, is cold. It is a shocking prospect that the Korean women's relay team (Choi Min-jeong, Kim Ki-li, Noh Do-hee, Lee So-yeon, and Shim Suk-hee), which was the "zero gold medal candidate" only a few years ago, will be pushed out of the medal table at the 2026 Milan-Cortina D'Ampezzo Winter Olympics.

According to multiple sports betting companies including Gibraltar-based BetVictor and Britain-based BET365 downgraded South Korea's chances of winning the women's short track relay event. According to the dividend rates of major gamblers as of the 4th (Korea Standard Time), the possibility of the Korean women's relay team's gold medal is far behind that of the Netherlands and Canada.

The Netherlands, the "defending champion" of the 2022 Beijing Olympics, was considered the leading candidate, receiving about 2.1 times the gold medal dividend, followed by Canada. Prices ranging from 2.8 to 3 times were set for Canada. Korea was 10 to 11 times. Italy and the United States were also more likely to win a gold medal than South Korea. Korea was rated as the top five.

Of course, dividends set by gamblers should be viewed as reference, but it has the advantage of being easy to analyze the game ahead of the competition. Analysts say that it reflects both the recent rise and data while analyzing the continued performance. At the same time, sports analysts say that if the Netherlands or Canada fail to win the gold medal, something unusual has happened.

The strongest candidate selected by gamblers is the Netherlands, led by Susan Schulting (29), "Short Track Empress." The Netherlands is dominating the top of its chances of winning the championship by showing overwhelming speed and organizational power in the recent world tour. In particular, the Dutch women's national team holds both the Olympic record and the world record.

The Korean women's national team has been strong enough to win six gold medals in nine competitions since the women's relay took place at the 1992 Winter Olympics. In addition, the national team also has aces called Choi Min-jeong and Kim Ki-li, but unlike in the past when they ran holeless races from No. 1 to 4, it is pointed out that they are too dependent on them now. In the 2022 Beijing Olympics, the Korean national team also ranked second behind the Netherlands.

It only refers to the objective power, but when you enter the competition, various variables come out. There are factors that are highly volatile from time to time, such as ice quality, matches, and conditions. The world's attention is focusing on whether the Korean women's short track will be able to stand at the top of the podium, laughing at the shocking prospect of a "no medal" by gamblers.
