That is awfully a lot. Looks like this whole idea got out of control a bit…

yes I find it disproportionate 10 - 15 athletes would have been enough! and besides that we reduce the wild cards to small nations

They had 29 in Tokyo, so whilst an increase, it's not that crazy. The jump from 10 in Rio to 29 in Tokyo was much bigger.

 

But let's be honest here - the IOC is always going to support this because it makes them look good, so to speak. It's at least 50% pure politics.

The IOC generally uses exceptional/discretionary invitation for the EOR.

I think they gave so much of those judo quotas for them to compete in the team’s competition
