Weightlifting
We now have six events per gender with a total of 10 athletes per event.
The Olympic Qualification Rankings will be based on the sum of the total results of five events (three from period 1 and two from period 2). The top 8 will qualify.
The 9th spot will also be based on the OQR, but it will go to the highest ranked athlete from an unrepresented continent.
The 10th spot will be split between the host and universality (3 each per gender). Should the United States qualify normally then their host quota will be reduced, first going to an athlete from an unrepresented continent then to the overall highest ranked athlete.
Additionally, a "Best Lifter" will be awarded which would give the nation the chance to qualify 4 athletes rather than the max of 3.
66% chance for a medal in moguls seems low though...
Men's relay being 5th in short track, and Clarke only having a 0.5% chance at a medal also seem off
Why is ski mountaineering there, we didn't even qualify anyone
This is an awesome site for medal projections thanks for sharing
I hope we can improve on Beijing with 27-28, but I'd be more than happy with 26 with the injuries.
Triathlon
The mixed relay qualification event was removed so the rankings will decide 8 teams. Additionally, the five continents are to be represented in mixed relay provided they are in the top 15.
In the individual side, the continental games will qualify the highest ranked nation not yet qualified (New Flag) provided that the athlete ranks in the top 160. This goes along with the "New Flag" rankings we've seen in the past.
Tennis
The ranking limit for the ITF Places has increased from 400 to 500. Additionally, Pan America lost one of its ITF Places and it was reallocated to the Pacific Games.
