South Korea will even bring Son Heung-min ! obviously he wants to win the gold to avoid military service. the same rules exist in Iran too.

 

Does this rule apply to all Iranian athletes? In which sports and which competitions winning a gold allows them to skip military service?

I removed all non-Olympic events that I could. For clarification weightlifting was left as is while in karate I only removed the lightest weightclass as I cannot combine the two heavier weightclasses.

Sorry about that... Here is the top 10 nations, only taking Olympic events into consideration.   Top 10 (G-S-B) 1.   106 - 70 - 54 2.   64 - 50 - 66 3.   33 - 43 - 49

Yes in all sports. winning the Gold medal in Asian Games or winning a medal of any color in the Olympics + winning gold or silver in World Championships will allow them to skip the military service. I believe that World Championship part only applies to Olympic sports.

 

so only AG, Olympics and the World Championship count and in this case in Jakarta only gold medalists will have that privilege . but this mostly helps younger athletes. because when you are 26-27 or older you already had to deal with the military service.  last time in Incheon Iran won 21 gold medals by 32 athletes (20 individual + 12 volleyball team member) but only 3 of 4 of them used the rule. for the rest that was already late.

I see so Tottenham will let him play Asian Games and in exchange he won't play first 2 matches of Asian cup

interesting that China registered a full team for the Weightlifting competition

https://en.asiangames2018.id/athletes/sport/wl/country/CHN/page/1/

 

They are supposed to be banned like Kazakhstan ! how come they have a team here ?! (even though registering doesn't necessarily mean they are going to participate)

      https://nypost.com/2026/01/31/sports/team-canada-skeleton-coach-joe-cecchini-speaks-out-after-american-katie-uhlaender-manipulation-claim/   Oh the drama....   Cecchini: “I don’t really wanna speak negatively about Katie, but Katie was not on the World Cup team. She wasn’t a top-tier athlete in that program anymore. She was at the end of her career. I would personally would rather race against Katie. She’s not as competitive as the other athletes,” he said. “It’s probably really unfair to say and not really where I want to go with this but that’s where we are with that.”   Uhlaender: “If I were Canada, I would be concerned in how this coach is representing the Olympic values for his country,” Uhlaender told Fox News Digital. “He hurt a whole field of athletes, all with dreams, and this sends the message that they don’t matter unless they are number one. All athletes matter, and we all deserve to compete fairly, with integrity, and respect. He did not respect anyone in that field. “This is not about my resume or how good the athletes were in the race. This is about the fact that he intentionally manipulated the competition to hurt myself and 13 other countries because he felt it necessary to eliminate all possibility. That is against the spirit of sport and not what the Olympic movement represents.”   Isn't it great when other people's dirty laundry is aired?  /sarcasm     (I was a little surprised to see NPR pick this up, but per this article, Uhlaender preemptively recorded the phone call after receiving a text from Cecchini that said he had 'bad news' for her.)

      Idea (that I don't want to mess with right now, but someone else can steal the idea): Could feed the docs from LA28 + Paris 2024 through AI and see what it says.  (Would just take downloading them, perhaps merging them for ease of upload, and passing it through.)

      Slowly going through the documents.   Looks like canoe slalom qualifiers will be a bit different. More kayak cross quotas which will let nations to essentially qualify two kayakers.

      How about we choose either Rome or Milano  I hate this timeline we have entered of multiple host cities / countries. The football World Cup became ludicrous, we don't need the Olympics to join them. At least not more than they already are.

      FIBA World Cup Qualifier March P.R.   This is my proposed Young Guns Developmental Roster. The FIBA World Cup Qualifier in P.R. is a throwaway tour- nament for Team USA after the Gold Medal Game debacle. This is the perfect environment to test the Young Guns to see who has it, who does not, and who needs more devel- opment. The 2026 FIBA World Cup in Berlin is the tuneup for 2028 in L.A. The game against Spain will answer many questions.   Betts     Center age: 22 Boston  Center age: 24 Brink     SF, F   age: 24 Stewart  F, PF  age: 32 Kiki Iriafen F     age: 22 Jackson SF       age: 24 Howard  SF, SG age: 26 CC         PG       age: 24 Paige     SG       age: 24 Young    SG, PG age: 28 Plum      SG, PG age: 32 Citron    SG         age: 22

      I'm also reminded as I know Canadians are painfully aware that if figures hadn't been a part of the 1984 Olympics, then Brian Orser would have won gold.  Hamilton could have finished 4th in the free skate that year and still beat Orser who finished 7th in the figures
