Olympics biathlon Men’s 20 km Individual live stream, start time, TV channel
By John Buhler
The Men’s 20km individual of the biathlon will be in full effect on Thursday evening in Pyeongchang. Here is how to watch this event online via streaming.
As we get further along in the biathlon competitions at the 2018 Pyeongchang Games, the distances these biathletes are being asked to travel are getting more ridiculous. We’ve already seen the spring and the pursuit races. Now it’s time to turn our full attention to the individual.
The men will take part in the 20km individual on Feb. 15. This biathlon event will begin at the Alpensia Biathlon Centre in Pyeongchang, South Korea at 6:00 a.m. ET, 8:00 p.m. KT. The available live streams can be found on NBCOlympics.com and on FuboTV.
While the event will not be televised live in the United States, it will be on tape delay only a few hours later. You can catch the men’s 20km individual on NBCSN at 12:00 p.m. ET all the way through 2:00 p.m. ET. There will not be another Olympic event being shown in conjunction with the men’s 20km individual. It’s just two hours of sweet biathlon action for us all to enjoy.

Time: 6:00 a.m. ET, 8:00 p.m. KT
Location: Pyeongchang, South Korea
Venue: Alpensia Biathlon Centre
TV Info: NBCSN (12:00 p.m. ET)

Through the sprint and the pursuit, no, it has not been kind to the United States in terms of getting an Olympic medal. Tim Burke did come in 17th place in the men’s 12.5 pursuit on Monday, so that is some progress. However, the women haven’t been anywhere remotely close to getting on the podium.
For the men, Germany’s Arnd Peiffer took home the gold in the sprint on Sunday. France’s Martin Fourcade earned the gold in the pursuit on Monday after failing to medal in the sprint on Sunday. So far, the women’s biathlon circuit has been dominated by Germany’s Laura Dahlmeier. She earned gold in both the women’s 7.5km sprint and the women’s 10km pursuit.
Will the United States be able to hold its own in the men’s 20km individual on Thursday night in Pyeongchang? Can Burke or Lowell Bailey represent America most magnificently in the individual? Be sure to tune in to NBCSN at 12:00 p.m. ET to see the tape delay. You can always live stream it if you are an early riser.
