Apologies for the delay, wanted to make sure everything accurate and factually correct on the OCT eligibility side. 

 

When adding up the qualified individual and relay athletes I got a final number of 594. Due to all the relay athletes not being announced this number I had to make an educated guess fora couple of the relay nations so this number may be 3 or 4 out either side. I then added all the possible universality quotas which got me to a total of 319 before combining those numbers to get to 913. I then divided 319 by 4 as I expect about 50 - 60 of the countries eligible for 2 universality quotas to only take up 1 or potentially none at all and about 15-20 of the countries eligible for 1 universality quota to reject it, this left me with 79.75 that I rounded up to 80. I then subtracted 80 from the 913 total to get a final estimate of 833, meaning 19 quotas would be available for OCT athletes. With that said here is every athlete that is eligible to qualify via OCT after OQT, relay and universality quotas are dished out in order of their priority: 

 

  1. :AUT - Heiko Gigler - Men’s 100m Free - 909 points (:ISR - Bar Soloveychik - Men's 400m Free - 907 points)

  4. :FIN - Tomas Koski - Men’s 200m Free - 880 points

  5. :SLO - Janja Segel - Women’s 200m Free - 880 points (:IRL - Connor Ferguson - Men's 100m Back - 878 points) (:GER - Luca Armbruster - Men's 100m Fly - 876 points) 

  6. :ROU - Henrietta Fangli - Women's 100m Breastroke - 873 points

  9. :ARG - Santiago Grassi - Men’s 100m Fly - 870 points 

  10. :GER - David Thomasberger - Men’s 200m Fly - 863 points

  11. :ARG - Agostina Hein - Women’s 800m Free - 863 points

  12. :POR - Francisca Soares Martins - Women’s 400m Free - 858 points

  13. :EGY - Ali Khalafalla - Men’s 50m Free - 856 points 

  14. :IRL - John Shortt - Men’s 200m Back - 855 points

  15. :SGP - Ching Hwee Gan - Women’s 1500m Free - 852 points

  16. :ESP - Laura Cabanes Garzas - Women’s 200m Fly - 841 points

  17. :ROU - Aissia Claudia Prisecariu - Women’s 200m Back - 830 points

  18. :NZL - Zac Reid - Men's 400m Free - 900 points

  19.  :TUR - Berke Saka - Men’s 200m IM - 897 points

  20. :SGP - En Yi Letitia Sim - Women’s 200m Breastroke - 895 points (:ESP - Cesar Castro - Men's 200m Free - 879 points) (:ITA - Sofia Morini - Women's 200m Free - 878 points) 

  21. :ROU - Denis-Lauren Popescu - Men's 100m Back - 873 points (:POL - Pauline Peda - Women's 100m Fly - 868 points) (:AUT - Bernhard Rietshammer - Men's 100m Breastroke - 865 points) (:IRL - Max Mc Cusker - Men's 100m Fly - 864 points) 

  22.  :EGY - Youssef Ramadan - Men’s 100 Fly - 863 points

  23. :BUL - Kaloyan Bratanov - Men’s 50m Free - 853 points-

  24. :NED - Lotte Hosper - Women's 200m Back - 830 points

  25. :POL - Mateusz Chowaniec - Men’s 100m Free - 904 points (:POL - Kamil Sieradzki - Men's 200m Free - 875 points) (:GRE Konstantinos Englezakis - Men's 200m Free - 871 points)

  26. :TUR - Emre Sakci - Men’s 50m Free - 852 points

Other than the potential of the likes of :ITA and :ESP rejecting some of these OCT quotas, this should all be factually correct and accurate. 

Sorry for the delay again, here is the revised list of OCT qualifiers with relay only swimmers added. All the athletes in brackets, relay only swimmers, will qualify for the games once the swimmer next to them is invited to participate. The reason for this is because they don't count twice on the total athlete count, meaning once the non relay only OCT above them has qualified any relay only OCT below them can also be accepted as they don't take any places away from other non relay only OCT athletes.

A swimmer has an OQT in event A and an OCT in event B.

 

There isn't anyone with an OQT from that NOC in event B.

 

Is that swimmer allowed to start in both events?

 

My answer would be certainly not, but apparently our federation thinks they are. 

From what I heard they can ASK for it.

 

It will be FINA's choice in the end, they have discretionary power to allow or not.

If they have the OQT and there are spots available why would they be entered as relay only to begin with?

 

I know this was a couple of days ago, but...

 

Brazil (as other countries) had their selection policy so even athletes with OQT were not selected to their individual events because they haven't done it during trials. So they would be officially selected as "relay only".

 

But in the end Brazil would have 11 relay only athletes, and one of them had an OQT on 100m freestyle (Marcelo Chierighinni), so he will have an entry to allow for another athlete to compete. Now Eduardo de Deus also got 400m OQT on Sette Colli, so not sure if he will have an entry on that event or be considered relay only.

What do you girls and guys think about Universality athletes being the same from previous Universality quotas?

I get it that sometimes they get their first quota while up-and-coming and maybe are at their career peak at 2nd or 3rd cycle.

 

And OBVIOUSLY they deserved their quotas being the best from the countries.

 

But at the same time I feel like it would be good for the development of the sport in the country if other athletes get it (specially regarding tripartite choices).

 

Perhaps it could have a 'ladder', like if they have been to an Olympic before (or 2) they have at least to reach an OCT or not have a second swimmer with 90% of their points or something like this.

I think it should be one and done. Each country literally gets one every 4 years, and sending the same swimmer who still doesn’t have an OCT 3 Games in a row is not helping promote swimming

    • Tragic performance of the Italian women's team - last place and probably something bad happened at the start. There are so few starts in the team that it will be a problem to even qualify for the World Championships - 8 best teams. After Lollobrigida's return and Fontana's addition, I was counting on much more, but it seems that there are too few joint trainings. With individual quality, we have no right to lose to the Czechs without Sablikova, or anonymous Korea. And unfortunately this start will count for a lot, because there are only 2 more and our chances of playing at the World Championships are minimal. In my opinion with Fontana going from Short Track to Long Track, there won't be much use in the team. Here, great teamwork is needed, not improvisation. As of today, there is very little chance that we will qualify the women's team for the games.
    • men advanced to Division A for the first time since 2018 (when they went 1-8). Don't expect much progress next year
    • Ok, but there we are talking about a person who has parents from different countries. Colturi has nothing to do with Albania.
    • There are few people here from Austria, Switzerland, Norway and Finland.
    • The worst editions in XXI century for us were Vancouver: 5 medals (only 1 gold for Razzoli's on the penultimate day) and Sochi: 8 medals (but no gold). Turin was already a prelude to this bad period, although the number of gold medals was ok. Overall we won fewer medals at home than in 2002 and this was probably the only case in the 21st century when the host country won fewer medals at home than 4 years earlier, either in summer or winter. In general the years 2008-2016 were very bad in our sport, both in summer and winter. Only 2018 in Korea was a slight rebuild + 2 fantastic summer editions in Tokyo and Paris. in Beijing 2022 we won a lot of medals - 17 but only 2 gold (If it weren't for Gogga's injury, I think it would have been 4 gold).
    • Totallympics had  users at one point, but I haven't seen any hanging around in a while.
    • In terms of total medals, yes. In terms of golds, I’d be fine with anywhere from 6-8.   @intoronto you don’t think we’ll do better or at least the same? Bit surprising.
    • Tadeucci was very good and took bronze
    • On the Olympics I don't like to count golds to analyse the performance, I think the best data are the top8 and medals. In both fields I expect a big improvement (obviously not on the 'pure' number, but on the percentage of medal or top8 events)
    • December is probably going to be focused on either Italy/Austria or Norway, but the plans are still being made as we speak. Renting a car, driving from the Netherlands down to Italy, finding accomodations and help with preparing the skis and all that...trying to make it as an independent 'solo' athlete is...hard     I can't go and help out, because we got the keys to our house (finally) and there's lots of work to be done there, so it's all happening at the same time and the mind is getting crazy (for both of us)
