:GRE Rafailia Spanoudaki is out. She just tested positive for Covid, so she will miss the Greek National Championships this weekend.

 

She would've been the heavy favourite to win both the 100m and 200m, which would have given her a lot of points to move up in the Race to Oregon ranking and probably she would've qualified in the 200m.

 

 

I think this might be the first time ever where we don't qualify anyone in a women's track event, or any track event for that matter. The only chance is for one of our young hurdlers (Anais Karagianni in 100H and Dimitra Gnafaki in 400H) to get a big PR this weekend and sneak in via ranking. And both already got PRs recently (Karagianni has gone from 13.31 to 13.15 this season, and Gnafaki from 57.00 to 56.67), so I'm not sure how realistic it is that they'll be able to improve so much in so little time.

Yeah, it's the first time ever that we will not be sending any track athlete to the World Athletics Championships. Still we are sending 17 athletes to Eugene which is more than we sent to Daegu 2011, Beijing 2015 and Doha 2019. Same amount as Moscow 2013.

 

If Spanoudaki didn't get covid, she 95% would've qualified in the women's 200m and also had a chance in the 100m. Irini Vasiliou won the women's 400m in the National Championships with 52.32, but she didn't compete in enough races to make it via ranking. Karagianni is 44th and Pesiridou 45th in the women's 100 hurdles in the Race to Oregon, so it's unlikely that they'll get in as they would need 4-5 more withdrawals. Pesiridou really should've made it but her performances were bad this year, until recently she finally started doing better again. Gnafaki 46th in the women's 400 hurdles. Needed to be top 40.

 

Douvalidis had a lot of issues so he didn't try to make it to Eugene (men's 110 hurdles). First time he's missing the World Championships since 2009.

 

Going to be weird not competing in any track events. We have 7 jumpers, 5 throwers, and 5 race walkers. Also it's the first time since 2007 that Filippidis doesn't compete. He hasn't been anywhere since Tokyo so I think it's safe to say he retired, he's 35 now and was mediocre the last few years.

Small and humble team for Lithuania at these World Championships:

 

Team Lithuania :LTU

 

Women

 

400m - Modesta Justė Morauskaitė

High Jump - Urtė Baikštytė

Discus Throw - Ieva Zarankaitė

Javelin Throw - Liveta Jasiūnaitė

20km Race Walk - Brigita Virbalytė

 

Men

 

Discus Throw - Mykolas Alekna, Andrius Gudžius

20km Race Walk - Marius Žiūkas

35km Race Walk - Artur Mastianica

 

Aina Grikšaitė - triple jump is in 33rd right now, but in top 32 there's one athlete that is already retired, so she might get an invitation still.

 

Similarly to team Slovakia, our team is also in recovery mode, which is why most of them were not able to collect enough points and are focusing on the European Championships as well, where I've counted that a 20+ athlete team is still a possibility.

 

And although some are recovering and slowly getting their form up for the ECH, one of our strongest athletes, javelin thrower Edis Matusevičius didn't even get to start this season at all, I hope he gets back in 2023.

:FRA The modest french delegation :

 

https://www.athle.fr/asp.net/main.html/html.aspx?htmlid=6385

 

Only potential semi finalists were selected, wich counts for only 7 female athletes in individual events and 21 males.

 

No much expectations there. I guess 1 or 2 medals is what to be hoped for (Kevin Mayer, the hurdlers, maybe the 800m guys, a miracle on the pole vault...).

 

TBH, It could also easely be a zero medal championships for us, witch only happen twice in 1983 and 1993.

 

The future looks brighter though with recent record youth championships, but Paris 2024 is likely to be too soon for most of them.

:IRL Ireland Team For Oregon World Championships

 

 

Ireland is sending a team of 19 athletes for the upcoming World Championships in Oregon. Ciara Mageean, Phil Healy and Fionnuala McCormack have withdrawn to focus instead on the European Championships in Munich.

 

 

The most exciting athlete is 19-year-old Rhasidat Adekele as she qualified for both the 200m and 400m but she will concentrate on the 400m only. Her range of distances from 60m up to 400m is impressive and she still does not train specifically for 400m so when she begins to focus on that distance she could run some special times. She will also be an asset to our future 4x400m women's and mixed relay teams on the road to Paris 2024.

 

Apart from that, it is probably going to be a very low-key world championships for Ireland but I am excited to see how Dave Kenny performs in the 20km walk.

 

As per usual, Ireland will have absolutely no representatives in field events.

 

 

Men's 400m Chris O'Donnell
Men's 800m Mark English
Men's 1500m Andrew Coscoran
Men's 400m Hurdles Thomas Barr
Men's 20km Walk David Kenny
Men's 35km Walk Brendan Boyce
Women's 400m Rhasidat Adeleke
Women's 400m Sophie Becker
Women's 800m Louise Shanahan
Women's 1500m Sarah Healy
Women's 100m Hurdles Sarah Lavin
Women's 4x100m Relay Rhasidat Adeleke, Molly Scott, Sarah Lavin, Joan Healy, Sarah Leahy, Lauren Roy, Adeyemi Talabi
Mixed 4x400m Relay Chris O'Donnell, Jack Raftery, Luke Lennon-Ford, Rhasidat Adeleke, Sophie Becker, Sharlene Mawdsley

    • The NFL are pushing had to develop flag football in Australia in hopes of getting it included in 2032. I hope they fail tbh.   Single gender sports fail the gender equality requirement so netball is out unless they can rapidly fix their gender problem. World Netball not so long ago was refusing utterly to sanction men's international netball or even support the growth of men's netball so they kind of sabotaged themselves and are only changing courses out of self interest because Brisbane was awarded the Olympics.   It doesn't even make sense to propose Aussie rules given how poor the participation is outside of Australia.
    • - Great Britain Team Size Prediction for Winter Olympic Games 2026 Milano Cortina   Ski Sports   Alpine Skiing  (4) - The qualification system is a bit confusing, but from what I gather the team is Guaranteed 2 quotas (one for each gender), and then more are given for rankings. I can only see 1 female qualifying, but the men's team is a bit stronger, and could improve with some juniors coming through. I would say a baseline of 3, with a max of 5, 6 if things really improve.  Cross Country Skiing  (3) - The men's team came 11th in the world cup last year, and with some good results could move up to top 10 which would give 3 quotas, The women's team is non existant.  Ski Jumping  (0) - Nope Nordic Combined  (0) - Nope Freestyle Skiing  (6) - Based on last year rankings, the athletes are ranked: M Moguls (26/30), M Ski Cross (26/32), M Halfpipe (33/25), M Slopestyle (39+40/30) W Moguls (23+42/30), W Halfpipe (3/25), W Big Air (5/30), W Slopestyle (19+22/30)  Barring Injury , thats 2 quotas on the women's side, and I would predict 4 more, with a max team of 7 or 8. Snowboarding  (2) - W Halfpipe (34/25) is the only unknown quota, as both Charlotte Bankes and Mia Brookes should qualify easily. Huw Nightlingale may get a spot for the Mixed Team snowboard cross but I don't know how it works. Biathlon  (0) - Nope Ski Mountaineering  (0) - Nope     Skating Sports   Speed Skating  (2) - Cornelius Kersten and Elia Smelding should qualify, although they both haven't competed this year. Short Track Speed Skating  (2) - A team of 5 went to the world but only a couple could really qualify Figure Skating  (4) - Fear and Gibson should qualify, and the pair team is ranked 16th in the world with 19 qualifiers.      Sleigh Sports   Luge  (0) - Nope Skeleton  (6) - A full team is certainly on the cards, but with only ranking points from the next season counting a lot could change Bobsleigh  (6) - Brad Hall and Co should qualify for both 2 and 4 man. I doubt any more will qualify from the mens side. Adele Nicholl on the womens should also qualify in both events     Team Sports   Curling  (12) - Anything but a full team would be a dissapointment Ice Hockey  (0) - The men were the only chance       Total Optimistic Prediction  -  (60) Total Pessimistic Prediction  - (32)   Total Realistic Prediction  -  (47)

    • North American rugby quotas ( and qualified automatically)    M: and W: and  
    • I remember Caroline Golubitsky. She competed with Vezzali for a while but not for long. Rita Konig, whom Vezzali defeated in the final of the Olympic Games in 2000, was more famous, as well as Sabine Bau and Anja Mueller. From what I remember, the Germans competed fiercely with us at some point, but they almost always lost.
