> #*Nordic Combined - [Men's Individual Normal Hill/10km](
https://www.pyeongchang2018.com/en/...ndividual-gundersen-nh-10km-fnl-0001cc-.htm)*
#### **Time** : 15:00 KST / 6:00 GMT / 1:00 EST
#### **Approximate Length** : 3 hours 15 minutes
#### **Notes** :
* Nordic combined is composed of two sports : ski jumping and cross-country skiing.
* There is one run of ski jumping. Each compeitor is given a score according to ski jumping rules (based on distance, style and weather conditions at the time of the jump).
* The point can then be converted into a penalty time for the cross-country skiing part. For each point behind the leader of the ski jumping part, the competitor will start the cross-country part 4 seconds behind.
* The cross-country part is thus a pursuit race, since starts are staggered but the first one to arrive to the finish is the winner.
#### **Probable Winner** : **Japan**'s Akito Watabe, **Germany**'s Eric Frenzel and Johannes Rydzek and **Norway**'s Jarl Magnus Riiber
