The games featured 109 events in 7 different sports, encompassing a total of 15 disciplines.[3] New events included men's and women's big air freestyle skiing, women's monobob, mixed team competitions in freestyle skiing aerials, ski jumping, and snowboard cross, and the mixed relay in short track speed skating.[4]
About 91 National Olympic Committees qualified athletes, with Haiti and Saudi Arabia each making their Winter Olympics debuts.[5][6] As a result of the 2020 ruling by the Court of Arbitration for Sport on the Russian doping scandal, Russian athletes competed in both the 2020 Summer Olympics and the 2022 Winter Olympics under the acronym "ROC" after the name of the Russian Olympic Committee, and under the flag of the Russian Olympic Committee.[7]
