if I didn't missed him (which is absolutely possible), just one month ago (when I redacted that list), he wasn't in the top 250 of the WR

 

I'll check again tomorrow 

I couldn't resist...I already checked that, and yes, last time I completely missed him  

 

he's 98th, so he will certainly get a spot

not necessarily, if they are not qualified in a given weapon, they're still eligible for one of those spots

Yeah but it makes it much more unlikely.

up

 

I think  (women's Epee),  X2 (men's Epee and Foil),  (men's Epee),  (women's Foil),  (men's Foil),  (men's Sabre) and  (women's Sabre) will get all the 8 tripartite places, no room for the AOR guys

I think  will get a quota here. They are constantly at World Cups, probably there is some special funding or something.

This article is almost three weeks old, but our fencing federation is requesting a wildcard or reallocation spot for Georgiadou and using Bach giving Kharlan a wildcard as an example...

 

Of course I doubt it will make a difference. We knew for the past few years that something like this would probably happen and that one of our two girls would miss out on the Olympics, maybe a change could've been made if they didn't wait until the end to complain about it.

Brazilian federation did the same thing, asking for a Tripartite reallocation quota for Alexandre CAMARGO after the lost 15-14 in the American Qualifier on a questionable decision.

 

The reply was quite sharp, saying the referee commission decided that  the decision was right (but the head of referee of the event is part of the referee commission lol) finishing basically with "Read the rules, you are not eligible for tripartite".

This is exactly what I was saying earlier, and people complained, but they bent the rules for Kharlan so now this really opened the door to this, now everyone is going to expect them to change the rules and give them wildcards too.

Llavador  , who was 1st at reallocation list, got a olympic quota. So that means that not 8 tripartite quotas where awarded

IIRC, first time since 2008 that  brings more than one competitor in Fencing to the Olympics (Llavador + already qualified Lucía Martín-Portugués in women's sabre)

Philippe Wakim (men's foil)  also receibed a Tripartite quota according to this.

So men's foil has reached the maximum of 37 entries.
