The qualification window for Judo opened at the end of June and so far there have been 8 qualifying events staged - 2 Grand Slams, 1 Grand Prix and 5 Continental Opens. Annoyingly, the IJF haven't got

from Tomorrow through Sunday, Grand Slam in :TJK Dushanbe, second last GS tournament before the final showdown (the World Champs) before the end of the qualification period

 

among the most interesting facts, it's one of the rare appearances of the great :FRA Teddy Riner in this final stint of his career...it should be a red carpet for him at least until the semis (where he should face :FIN Puumalainen), if not to the final (Home hero Temur Rakhimov the most credited guy to make it through to the gold medal match on the top half of the draw)

I may totally missing the mark here, but I guess these countries have qualified to Paris, if IJF does not create new Grand Prix/Slam or give Grand Prix points to the next Opens. We will have 5 weeks of Open, so I am taking a mathematical approach that one athlete could go to all Opens and win titles to check if they could get into one of the 17 direct quotas. But for now, this can only happen in the 73kg.

 

Only direct quotas here, no CQ, and the opens will be fundamental into some of the quotas + some of the seeds.

 

And obviously my math can be very wrong, so take it with a grain of salt (the order is not necessarily right)

 

W 48kg
:AZE:CHI:CHN:FRA:ISR*:ITA:JPN:KAZ:MGL:POR:RUS:SLO:KOR:ESP:SWE*:SRB:TUR:USA

:UZBKurbonova is out with 2652pt, but getting a Continental Quota, from Aminova (57kg), with 2474pt.
:GERMenz out with 2642pt, hoping Cavelius (81kg) take a direct quota, so she would get a continental (or Trippel, 90kg, with 2260pt for now)

* new entries.
:ISR without continental quota for now (see below, 73kg)
 :SWE continental quota going to Ida Eriksson (70kg) for now, but could go to Marcus Nyman (90kg)

 

M 60kg

 

:AZE:BEL:BRA:EGY:FRA:GEO:ISR:KAZ:JPN:MGL:NED:RUS:KOR:ESP:TPE:TUR:UKR:UZB

Nothing has changed here.

 

W 52kg

 

:BRA:CHN:FRA:GER:HUN:ISR:ITA:JPN:KOS:MAR:MGL:KOR:ESP:SUI:UAE:GBR:USA*:UZB

:CROAna Viktorija Puljiz out with 2490pt, she could still get the continental quota from Croatia (now with Zlatko Zumric, 2517pt)

*new entries
Angelica Delgado after reaching R16 goes to 2621. Continental quota for now with John Jayne (90kg, 2124pt)

Obviously it's not enough to point out that all these calculations goes with the idea that all Opens that will happen will give 100pt for the winners. We never know what the IJF can decide to do...

 

M 66kg

 

:AZE:BRA:FIN*:FRA:GEO:ISR:ITA:JPN:KAZ:MDA:MGL:RUS:KOR:ESP:TJK:UKR:UAE:UZB

 

:MARBoushita out, and gets the continental quota for now with 2456pt, in the place of Achraf Moutii (83kg, 1984pt)

*new entries

:FINLuukas Saha with the bronze medal breaks through the direct quota spot.

 

W 57kg

 

:BRA:CAN:CHN:FRA:GEO:GER:ISR:ITA:JPN:KOS:MGL:RUS:SLO:SRB:KOR:TPE:TKM:UKR

 

No changes here.

 

M 73kg

 

:ALG:AZE:BRA:CAN:FRA:GEO:ITA:JPN:KAZ:KOS:MDA:RUS:ESP:SUI:TJK:USA:UZB

 

18th quota still not decided:

:ISRTohar Butbul remains with 2812

:MGLTsend-Ochiryn Tsogtbaatar remains with 2782. As he has 3 blank results, he may pass Butbul.

 

If Tsogtbaatar gets the points, Gntulga Altanbagana (90kg, 1941pt) probably would get the continental quota from Mongolia and Butbul would get a continental quota as well.

How is reallocation working so far?

 

All continents have enough countries and wil take full quotas, except Oceania.

 

This is the current situation:

 

 

:AUSAustralia:AUS 1st male quota

 

2 secure direct quotas (Katherina Haecker, 63kg), Aoife Coughlan 70kg

 

M 60kg: Joshua KATZ 1500pt (not sure why he was not at the Worlds)
W 52kg: Tinka EASTON 1415pt (she has 10pts to discard, so if the wins an Open will go to 1505)

Both are slotted for Tahiti Open. Therefore Katz needs only to win one fight (or hope Easton will not win it). They could still obviously compete in others.

 

:NZLNew Zealand:NZL 1st female quota

2 athletes could still win direct quots:

 

W 78kg Moira de Villiers, wth 1832. She is injured but should go to Tahiti Open, where she could go to 1926 and potentially get the last quota (depends on what happens at the Worlds)

W +78kg Sydnee Andews, for now with the last direct quota with 2300pt 

 

81kg Maarten de Ridder with 309pt may still be dreaming with the continental quota, but he is not on the Worlds and does not appear to be registrated in any Open.

 

:FIJFiji:FIJ 2nd male quota

 

M 100kg Tevita Takayawa with 246pt appears to have the quota on his hands. Gerard Takayawa (+100kg, 92pt) and Shanice Takayawa (70kg, 64) need 2 strong performances in Opens.

 

:GUMGuam:GUM 2nd female quota

 

Maria Escano (57kg, 239pt).

 

:SAMSamoa:SAM 3rd male quota

 

Either William Tai Tin (73kg, 136pt) or Pniamina Percival  (81kg, 106pt), they are not in any tournament so far.

 

:VANVanuatu:VAN 4th male quota

 

Hugo Cumbo (81kg, 57pt)

 

:KIRKiribati:KIR 5th male quota or 3rd female quota

 

Both Nera Tiebwa (57kg) and Tebania Mwemwenikeaki (60kg) have 10pt and will play Tahiti Open. If they remain drawn and both eligible, "the IJF Executive Committee will make the decision."

 

:ASAAmerican Samoa :COKCook Islands, :MHLMarshall Islands, :NRUNauru :PLWPalau :PNGPapua New Guinea :TGATonga have no athletes in the rankings so far.

 

So far we have 2 female quotas and a third "to be decided".

 

So far I BELIEVE this is the ranking for the reallocation (it envolved many scenarios, with direct quota, continental quota, team invitaiton, etc, so this is far from certain). Tahiti Open (and others) may change things a bit...

 

Female

 

1- :BRANatasha Ferreira (48kg) 2694pt  -she could still get a continental quota depending on 63kg/70kg

2- :GERKatharna Menz (48kg) 2642pt - she could still get a continental quota depending o 81kg/90kg. And she still can add 80pt if she wins an Open, passing Ferreira.

3- :CROAna Viktorija PULJIZ (52kg) 2490pt - could still get a continental quota depending on 100kg)

4- :UZBShukurjon Aminova (57kg) 2474pt

4- :PORTaís Pina (70kg) 2341 still competing or Telma Monteiro (58kg, 2306, but could still add 80pt at an Open)

 

 

male (less sure, but)

 

:GERIgor Wandtke 2702pt, 73kg) - so far, with a Team Invitation quota

:CUBMagdiel Estrada 2265pt (could still get a CQ quota, depending on 63kg)

:DOMMedickson DEL ORBE CORTORREAL (81kg, 2174) or Robert Florentino (90kg, 2274) - both still competing

:SWEMarcus Nyman (90kg, 2198 - now fighting for the CQ with Ida Erikson, 70kg, 2202) 

:TURMuhammed Demirel (2177pt, 52kg)

:SLOEnej MArinic (+100kg, 2153pt)

W 63kg

 

:AUS:AUT:CAN:CRO:CZE:FRA:HUN:ISR:JPN:KOS:MEX:NED:POL:POR:SLO:KOR:GBR

 

18th direct quota to be decideed between

:CUBMaylin del Toro Carvajal goes to 3036 with the R16.

:ALGAmina Belkadi goes to 3012 and still has a 10 & 20 to replace. She is slotted to take part in Abidjan Open and would need a 5th place (with a victory) to go to 3038.

 

M 81kg

 

:AUT:AZE:BEL:BRA:CAN:FRA:GEO:ISR:ITA:JPN:KAZ:NED:RUS*:KOR:TJK:TUR:UAE:UZB

 

*new entry

Timur Arbuzov jumped through the rankings with his silver medal. His CQ for AIN:AIN will go to Dali Liluashvili from 63kg (239pt)

 

:HUNUNGVARI ATTILA is out of a directo quota, in 19th with 3186 points. He will probably get CQ from VEG Zsombor (100kg, 2607pt). Unless he get it back tomorrow (through direct quota or even reallocation), Hungary will only have 4 direct athletes and lose its right to earn a Team Invitation

 

Just noting that :GERTimo Cavelius gets the continental quota for Germany and he becomes the first male gay judoka qualified for OG (:grouphug: in the lack of a rainbow flag hahaha)
 

 

W 70kg

 

:AUT:AUS:BEL*:CRO:FRA:GER:GRE:HUN:ITA:JPN:NED:PUR:RUS:SLO:ESP:GBR:UZB:VEN

 

*new entry

:BELGabriella Willems goes to 2614 with the 5th place

 

and :ISRMaya Goshen out with 2472. As Shira Rishony got a 48kg direct quota, Goshen has the continental quota so far if Butbul remains with the direct quota in the 73kg (see above). If he loses, the continental quota is his and Goshen will go to the reallocation lot (see below)

M 90kg

 

:AZE:BRA:BUL:CUB:FRA:GEO:GRE:HUN:ITA:JPN:KGZ:NED:RUS:ESP:SRB:TJK:TUR:UZB

 

several contenders were close by but nothing changed here

 

W 78kg

 

:BRA:CUB:FRA:GER:GUI:ISR:ITA:JPN:MGL:NED:POL:POR:SLO:KOR:UKR:GBR:UZB

 

18th quota momentarily with

:KOSLoriana Kuka 1873pt
but can be obtained by

:NZLMoira de Villiers 1832pt (she is injured and missed the worlds and still has a 10 + 6 + 6 in her points. She is supposed to go to Tahiti Open and a bronze medal will do - will take her to 1876)

:ECUVanessa Chala 1656pt, but has 2 blank spaces on her ranking and one 70, so she can go to 1886 - if she wins 3 Opens around the world in 5 weeks lol

 

Both cases are curious:

 

 

Moira de Villiers has a continental quota so far, but has to hope Sydnee Andrews keeps her direct quota tomorrow (2300pt) in a fierce competition.

 

If Moira eventually wins a quota and Sydnee remains with her direct quota, the continental quota will go to Maarten de Ridder (81kg, 309pt) and may shake some things in the Oceania quota (see above) and reallocation quota (see below)

 

Ecuador is a curious case because they have 4 strong athletes fighting for one continental quota and who have not travelled enough. Besides Chala we have

 

70kg Celinda Corozo with 1264pt with 160 + 36 + 20 + 0 + 0  (!)

66kg Lenin Preciado with 1123 but with 50 + 36 + 20 + 0 + 0 (!)

+100kg Freddy Figueroa with 1041 but with 100 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 (he is not in Abu Dhabi).

 

Have no idea why they have not travelled more, even in regional Opens... they could have easily 2 or 3 quotas. 

 

And this is how we stand with the reallocation rankings 

 

Female

 

1- :BRANatasha Ferreira (48kg) 2694pt

2- :GERKatharna Menz (48kg) 2642pt - She still can add 80pt if she wins an Open, passing Ferreira.

3- :CROAna Viktorija PULJIZ (52kg) 2490pt - could still get a continental quota depending on 100kg)
*4- :ISRMaya Goshen out with 2472 - she can still ad 80pt if she wins an Open, passing Puljiz (if Butbul gets the continental quota in 73kg instead of Goshen)

4- :UZBShukurjon Aminova (57kg) 2474pt

4- :PORTaís Pina (70kg) 2341 still competing or Telma Monteiro (58kg, 2306, but could still add 80pt at an Open)

 

 

male (less sure, but)

 

:GERIgor Wandtke 2702pt, 73kg) - so far, with a Team Invitation quota - I think reallocation happens first if a male quota is available
:HUNVEG Zsombor (100kg, 2607pt, still competing)

:CUBMagdiel Estrada 2265pt (could still get a CQ quota, depending on 63kg)- he has defected, but will keep him for now.

:SWEMarcus Nyman (90kg, 2208 - he still has a 10 and 20 to replace on the rankings)

:SLOEnej MArinic (+100kg, 2153pt, still competing)

 

 

I believe we have for now :CAN:GEO:GER:HUN:KAZ:POR remain eligible for the Team - I though Hungary had lost it, but they can still have a team with 52kg, 63kg and 70kg with women and 81, 90 and remains with the TI for 73)

Frascadore isn’t entered in any events right? So by my reckoning, for Canada it’ll be between Kelly Deguchi (women’s 52kg) and Louis Krieber Gagnon (men’s 90kg) for one of the continental quotas?

Not sure if the points for Goshen (ISR) are right. I think she only gained 20 points here, and loses 10 which means she is at 2472, of course she could gain another 80, but that still has to be done. 
goshen at least so far is not registered for any open tournaments. 
 

Tais should be at 2469 after 2nd round at WCH, but she can’t improve anymore.

      Your favorite moments at the Winter Olympic Games Milano Cortina 2026

      By Josh · Posted

      The disappointments still outweigh the positives, by a mile actually but well…(someone should make a thread for that?)   For  Canada, in no specific order; A lot of these are similar to @Topicmaster1010's, but the same moments are standing out to me, there's also one that I'm not ready to mention yet because even though I'm proud of him, at the same time I'm still very disappointed about it.    - Rachel Homan finally winning an Olympic medal after receiving a lot of hate after Pyeongchang 2018 and Beijing 2022 for not making the playoffs in either, she deserves this more than anyone. Also her triple takeout in the 8th against Sweden - Entire cross country skiing team, no words to describe their performance, except saying they're easily the Canadian team of the Olympics and my expectations were blew out of the water.  - Piper Gilles/Paul Porier winning an Olympic medal in ice dance, three years ago, Gilles had a cancer diagnosis which put her dreams in jeopardy. Also very special given how many times they've been screwed over by judges this season.  - One of the greatest to ever do it in freestyle skiing, Mikael Kingsbury, winning gold in the Olympic debut of dual moguls in likely his last event at an Olympic Games.   - "Sparky" Mark McMorris, coming back from that nasty hard crash during big air training, to not only compete in slopestyle, but finish third in qualifications and land a run in the final to finish 8th.  - Brad Jacobs winning gold in men's curling as a big "fuck you" to everyone who has been accusing him of cheating online (I still like Edin but still), mostly people who don't understand curling ofc  - Kelsey Mitchell fulfilling her dreams of becoming a dual summer-winter Olympian finishing 13th in 2-women bobsleigh, after only 8 months of competing in this sport. Insane!  - Stephen Gogolev finishing 5th in the men's figure skating event, thought top 10-15 would've been what could realistically be expected. - Megan Oldham winning her first Olympic medal with a bronze in slopestyle, then later on winning a gold in big air, after finishing 4th in big air in Beijing.  - Deanna Stellato-Dudek becoming an Olympian after hitting her head during a training accident, which had her and Maxime Deschamps miss the figure skating team event.   - Valerie Maltais winning three Olympic medals in speed skating at 35, team pursuit gold, and 1500m/3000m bronze. At most you could've hoped for 2, one of the 3000m/mass start and the team pursuit. Her winning a medal in the 1500m, can't have imagined it beyond my wildest dreams, it was her first international podium in this event. It's also likely her last Olympics.  - Brendan Mackay coming up clutch on his last run to win an unexpected bronze in halfpipe as he didn't compete much this season, that being said he did win an event this season.  - Laurent Dubreuil's surprise medal in the 500m in speed skating - Courtney Sarault winning four medals, most medals by a Canadian at a Winter Olympics since Klassen in 2006, even though I choose to try and forget about short track.    Then International Athletes, in no specific order;  Johan-Olav Botn pointing to the heavens to honour Sivert-Guttorm Bakken   Benny Karl winning back-to-back golds in parallel giant slalom, ofc  Totallympian  @brunamoura's Olympic debut (we are all so proud of you) Men's freestyle skiing big air final, we were blessed with some insane tricks from the boys   I don’t know if I’ll be able to witness that high of a level in a competition in the next few decades  AJ Ginnis' farewell run, because it meant him becoming an Olympian  Johannes Hoesflot Klaebo creating history as the first athlete to win 6 Olympic golds in a single games One of the greatest alpine skiers of all time,  Federica Brignone, winning her long awaited Olympic gold, and a few days later winning another one, the more special one to me was the super-G though  Kacper Tomasiak becoming one of the breakout stars of the games with 3 medals  female biathlon team   Von Allmen with an incredible Olympic debut, with 3 golds   Nazgul, the dog, crossing the finish line during women's team sprint qualifications   Suvi Minkinnen and especially  Teresa Vobronikova winning bronze medals in biathlon    winning three medals in ski mountaineering, and especially Oriol Cardona Coll with the gold More on ski mountaineering,  Marianne Fatton winning gold in the women's event, she seems like a nice person and a great ambassador for the sport.   Mikhail Shaidorov upsetting Malinin to win gold in men's figure skating  Sturla Holm Lægrid admitting to cheating on his girlfriend publicly in an interview (kidding)   Nadja Käelin coming from out of nowhere, and having an incredible Olympics  Hassleborg and Isabella/Rasmus Wråna winning double gold for Sweden in curling, continuing their legacy in this sport, very happy for all of them as they are all some of my favourite curlers.  Tirinzoni winning an Olympic medal in what is likely to be her last Olympics after seeing how dominant she's been ever since the 2018-19 season, same with Pätz if she does hang up her broom.   Riku Miura/Ryuichi Kihara's WR in the pairs free skate   Viktor Thorup medal in the mass start, even though the race was boring  Eileen Gu winning gold in halfpipe, after her grandmother passed away the very same day. She didn't know about it until after the event, but I think to me with how she performed, her grandmother seemed to be giving her that extra bit of strength from above.  Medal for  Henry Sildaru in halfpipe, and not only a final but a top 8 for  Benjamin Lynch   Elina Ieva Bota winning a medal in women's singles luge  Finland’s success in nordic combined with 3 medals, Eero Hirvonen and Ilkka Herola   A few curling shots that stood out,  Mouat's run quadruple in the 7th end against Switzerland in the semifinals,  Muskatewitz's quadruple runback double in the 1st end against China and his spinner in the 5th end against Czechia (definitely a few that I'm missing) Just seeing how happy everyone was every time one of their athletes either medaled, or did better than expectations, definitely was one of them.

      Canada will also not partake in the opening ceremony, but the decision was made because of the location of the venue.
