last year in Olympics we had :

2 silver (Mohammed Ahmed-5000m, Men's 4x100m relay)
2 bronze (Andre De Grasse-100m, Evan Dunfee-50km walk)

Fun fact: Those were the only medals won by men at the 2020 Olympics, the other 18 medals were won by women across nine (if you split diving and swimming) sports.

IOC might punish Canada because of imbalance between the 2 sexes regarding the medals captured in various sports

 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.

Slovakia will send only 5 athletes (4 in Race Walking) and 1 in Track and Field. The smallest delegation ever

 

Sadly all our "A" team members are returning from injuries, Ján Volko, Emma Zapletalová, Martina Hrašnová, Gabriela Gajanová, Stanislava Škvarková (all declined their spots for the WCh and are entirely now focusing only for the Europeans) + Marcel Lomnický, Tomáš Veszelka and Michal Morvay are still injured and will not compete this year probably anymore. The rising star Viktoria Foster is still a bit behind the required qualifying level in both her events 100 & 100 Hurdles.

 

But whole our team is focusing on the European Championships where it looks we will send a more than 20 atletes which will be the biggest delegation ever

 

So for the worlds just a cosmetic participation with 5 Athletes

Miroslav Úradník, Dominik Černý, Hana Burzalová and Ema Hačundová in Race Walking and Daniela Ledecká in W 400m Hurdles

Hours of fun for Stats nerds: - the official World Rankings upon which Oregon non-automatic invitations will be based.
