Quota : Women's Triathlon

 

Medal, Men's Sevens

I don't think the men's rugby sevens team is a particularly unlikely medal. We had a strange and somewhat transitional season last year but we are World cup bronze medallists and the core of that squad still remains, we have the best player in the world in Terry Kennedy and we now have better depth.

For me though 

Qualification: Adam Steele/ Eamon Montgomery- Artistic Gymnastics,

 

Medal: Rowing men's quad (Arguably could put them in the unlikely qualification category but still)

Are these rankings important?

No. Mostly useless. The reason Ivanusa Gomes Moreira is so high on them is mostly because she was one of only 2 entries at the African Championships in 2022. She lost that fight.

Boxrec's rankings are also flawed but they are more accurate than the IBAs so if thats what you were basing your picks off then I would probably use boxrecs or maybe an aggregate of the two.

I don't know much about boxing

It's boxing. It doesn't matter how much you know about it your predictions will be wrong either way. For what its worth I think most of your picks so far have been conceivable.

Ivanusa Moreira Gomes CPV (first ever olympic medal for Cape Verde - is it possible in real word???)

Uhm, No. Incredibly slim chance of even qualifying.
