MHSN 3,371 Posted June 1, 2023 #61 Share Posted June 1, 2023 Interesting report from ITG https://www.insidethegames.biz/articles/1137519/wt-la28-qualification-system so after 2024 ranking will be based on the last 2 years and not 4! that was obvious but it took WT so many years to finally realize 4 years is too much. and looks like they want to give all Olympic quotas based on the ranking! no more continental qualifiers? I don't think that's a good idea lots of Olympic medalists (including some Olympic Champions) came from the continental qualifiers despite being very low in the ranking. Ulugbek Rashitov had no ranking points when he traveled to Tokyo but came back with a gold medal. mrv86 and phelps 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure where you read that there will be no continental qualifiers? honestly the current system is not good as it punishes big nations. It is really difficult to qualify more than 2 athletes per gender. my ideal system would be: 2years period (but no reduction of points) Get rid off Grand Slam (will not happen) automatic qualification for world champion 2027 (2quotas per category) 8 renking quotas 4 continental qualifiers (Oceania to join Africa or Asia) no Limitation regarding participation 1 host nation 1 universality/refugee/whatever but in general I think taekwondo deserves more quotas. Either 8 categories with 12 or 4 categories with 24. Edited June 1, 2023 by prso1000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ranking points have previously been accumulated over the quadrennial cycle between Games, a system deployed for Paris 2024, but World Taekwondo intends to reset all athletes to zero after every two years from 2024. For Los Angeles 2028, this would mean the period from June 1 2024 to May 31 2026 constitutes an initial period with no direct qualification events, although points contribute to eligibility for Grand Slam events from 2026 to 2028. or did I misread anything ?

Rafa Maciel 1,493 Posted June 9, 2023 #64 Share Posted June 9, 2023 Pretty solid day for on the first day of the Rome Grand Prix Gold for Jade Jones Gold for Caden Cunningham Bradley Sinden had a bit of an off day though as he exits in round of 16. From ranking perspective, that should help solidify Jones' position in the rankings and will move Cunningham closer to automatic quota spot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cunningham might just peak at the right time. Big event tomorrow for GB is Lauren Williams who's had a shakey time having looked very good. Cook/Walkden, like Sinden, can probably afford an off day if it comes to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
