Interesting Fact: Zina Kocher’s bronze in 2006 was the first time a Canadian biathlete was on an international podium in more than 10 years.
Chances: Having never finished better than 27th in an individual Olympic event, Kocher is not expected to be on the podium by herself. She has however, been part of a relay team that finished 7th in the 2006 Olympics. Relay will be her best shot.
