Winter Olympics 2026: Speed Skating - Women's Team Pursuit

Unified Resolution Criteria (Consistent across platforms)

Core resolution logic:

• Resolution is determined by which country wins the gold medal in Women's Team Pursuit Speed Skating at 2026 Winter Olympics
• Kalshi lists 8 specific countries (USA, Japan, China PR, Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Canada, Kazakhstan) that each resolve to Yes if they win gold
• Polymarket offers individual markets for named countries (USA, Japan, Belgium, Netherlands, China, Canada, Germany, Kazakhstan, Norway, Italy) plus placeholder markets for additional competitors
• Resolution source is official IOC medal ceremony announcement and records
• Only the gold medal winner resolves to Yes; all other country markets resolve to No
• If multiple countries are awarded gold (tie), Polymarket resolves in favor of the alphabetically first country name

Edge cases & Clarifications:

• Event Postponement or Cancellation: If the event is postponed after March 31, 2026 11:59 PM ET or canceled entirely, Polymarket resolves to Other; Kalshi resolves to No. Both platforms do not resolve based on preliminary or unofficial results.
• Post-Medal Disqualification: Subsequent disqualifications or amendments after the medal ceremony are not considered. Resolution is locked at the time of the official medal ceremony.
• Tie for Gold Medal: If multiple countries are awarded gold, Polymarket resolves in favor of the alphabetically first country name. Kalshi does not explicitly address this scenario but would apply standard tie-breaking per IOC rules.
• Placeholder Markets: Polymarket includes 15 placeholder markets (Placeholder 1-15) representing potential additional competing countries. These resolve to No unless that country wins gold.
• Someone Else Market: Polymarket includes a 'Will someone else win' market that resolves to Yes if any country not explicitly named wins gold, and to No if one of the named countries wins.
