Winter Olympic viewership would skyrocket if downhill skiing was head-to-head instead of a time trial

The Winter Olympics suck because the, there are very few head-to-head sports. Everything is a time trial... If you had downhill skiing with eight people lined up, it would be one of the top events. Similarly, if you had sprinting or swimming in the summer as time trials instead of head-to-head, no one would watch.

Speculative opinion on audience behavior.

A baseball player must reach 2,000 hits to be considered elite

This is a subjective definition of 'elite'.
