Q:
Not all of us have interesting about Olympic. Does this sound natural?
A:
This is good! You're just using the wrong tense for "interest" and have a few simple errors. Instead of writing "interesting" (which is a describing word- an adjective) you should say "interest" (which is the word that you're looking for- it is the noun version of it).
The full sentence would be: " Not all of us have interest in the Olympics".
The full sentence would be: " Not all of us have interest in the Olympics".
Q:
In this Olympic games, I've impressed the most by a Japanese athlete Hirano.
He is a snow board skater and got the silver medal.
Many Japanese believed that he gave the best performance, but he didn't get what he deserved.
The scoring system for snow boarding mainly depends on overall impressions, so sometimes appealing adds extra .
However, he seems to be interested in only demonstrating overwhelming techniques, without exaggerations.
When Shaun White got the gold medal, Hirano was very calm and admired the champion, saying " He gave the best performance today and we had really exciting games!".
He is only 19 years old, yet a great guy with a broad mind. Does this sound natural?

A:
"In these 2018 Winter Olympic games, I've been the most impressed by the Japanese athlete Hirano {first name? last name?}. He is a snowboarder who got the silver medal. It's likely that many Japanese people thought that he had the best performance, but that he wasn't necessarily rewarded accordingly. The scoring system for snowboarding mainly depends on overall impressions, so sometimes appealing to the judges and/or public can help get some extra points. When Shaun White got the gold medal, Hirano cooly admired the champion, saying "I think he gave the best performance today. We were able to have really exciting games!" {Did he say this in English? If so, keep the original quote for this. I tweaked it to fit the Japanese one more}. Hirano is only 19 years old, but is an incredibly capable human being."
