Andorra received one of the wild cards (women's -63kg). But too bad that we have to find alternative ways to learn about wild cards as IJF still didn't publish anything.

Do you have any sources related to it? I can't search any of them on google.

Nope, there will still be 20 tripartite quotas. Invitations for refugees cannot be counted as tripartite quotas (for one thing, refugee olympic team is not a tripartite nation). They will be counted as extra athletes, similarly to those women's quotas that were awarded to Saudi Arabia and Qatar in 2012...

Okay. Sounds fair though.

Maybe they are waiting for the other nations to confirm the quotas before announcing. Let’s see if we can make some educated guesses. In total there are 103 tripartite nations. Of those 35 qualified to the Olympics through the rankings, leaving us with 68. Only South Sudan doesn’t have a judo federation meaning the other 67 nations have a chance. I remember from 2012 that athletes which did not have an Olympic ranking were given a wild card so you can’t rule anyone out, but here’s a ranking list of nations with athletes which have a rankings (ordered by athlete with the most points). In total 29 nations have ranked athletes.

 

Montenegro – 541pts

Monaco – 233pts

Andorra – 133pts

Yemen – 125pts

Cape Verde – 67pts

Congo DR – 56pts

Burundi – 52pts

Liechtenstein – 52pts

Palestine – 50pts

Afghanistan – 48pts

Guinea – 48pts

Chad – 44pts

Botswana – 30pts

Panama – 13pts

San Marino – 8pts

Djibouti – 6pts

Nepal – 6pts

Rwanda – 6pts

Swaziland – 6pts

Macedonia – 4pts

Malawi – 4pts

Syria – 4pts

Laos – 2pts

Malta – 2pts

Nicaragua – 2pts

Paraguay – 2pts

Suriname – 2pts

Bangladesh – 1pt

Central African Republic – 1pt

Out of these nations eligible for the Tripartite Commission Invitation, only 18 of them will be awarded, as the places won by judokas from the Refugee Olympic Athletes have already taken.

 

On a worst case scenario, the IJF list might be published on a later date, as Russia and Uzbekistan have not yet completed the lineup of judokas for the Games. Some of the Russians across the majority of the Olympic sports were also alleged by a doping scandal amidst wake of the irrevocable Olympic ban for the nation's track and field athletes.

Yes, potentially unused tripartite quotas will be reallocated in the same way.

So if the tripartite invitational places are lacking to fulfill its allocation, who will succeed Soyib Kurbanov of Uzbekistan in retrieving unused places?

Well it's not invitational spot. Reallocation rules say that unused quotas are going to the highest ranked athlete not already qualified (respecting max 1 per NOC per event rule).

 

When you click at "men" ranking here you'll see that Uzbekistani guy in -100kg was the highest ranked athlete. https://www.judobase.org/#/wrl/m/ogq

So any NOC can add more athletes in a weight category that they haven't qualified yet, as long as the maximum number of quotas has reached. Am I right?

IJF finally made their final OQ checks. https://www.judobase.org/#/wrl/1/ogq/0

 

Some changes:

-They finally removed ineligible Curacao and gave the quota to Bolivia

-Congo lost their quota in -100, but gained it in +100

-Mali got Congo's -100 quota

-Uzbekistan officially received the unused Oceania's quota, in men's -100

Uzbekistan earned two invitational spots? I thought the unused quota will be handed over to one of the unqualified nations.

I think it will be DR Congo (sadly for Guinea, they are only 8 points behind DR Congo).

Well, Guinea has a greater chance to be selected through Tripartite Commission Invitation.

There are 20 wild cards in judo so we should be quite confident. Btw, I found the list of currently qualified countries. Currently we have 113. https://www.judobase.org/#/ogq/country

 

They have finally remembered to remove Tahiti and New Caledonia, but they still have Curacao on the list. That quota should go to Bolivia so it's still 113 though.

Vanuatu should also be included in the continental allocation. Because Oceania will definitely fail to fulfill its allocation, one of these unused places will be awarded to Slovakia instead.
