I think another reallocation place will be available if Germany stays in 3rd position. I doubt that Germany will nominate more than 5 men (unless Zobel having a fantastic pursuit race on Sunday). Sweden will overtake Germany for 3rd place if and only if they win the relay on Saturday (which is totally possible, esp. without Norwegian A team) and Germany finishing 3rd or worse.

Same applies for France I reckon :mumble:

I don't see us sending Perrot just to sit there and undergo daily PCR tests, even more while the Junior World Champs are taking place :mumble:Nor any other IBU Cp athlete in fact.

Germany will definitely send six athletes. It is also about securing the relay in case of quarantine. It would be stupid if a country wouldn‘t use all the spots.

I am not sure about that. Why the internal qualification standards then (1x TOP 8 or 2x TOP 15)? For securing the relay you can justify athlete no. 5 - but six? I don't know. But we'll see. ;-)

:JPN have to end the worst in 10th place. (assuming SVK will not finish better than 16th)

...and that's highly unlikely given the recent performance of the Japanese men. So I think SVK can start to prepare their relay team for Beijing. ;-)

Bernd Eisenbichler, sporting director of biathlon in Germany, has already confirmed that if six men will go there, even without the standard. The sixth man will be determined after Ruhpolding or Antholz at the latest. The same applies to the fifth lady. 4 ladies+5 men are already sure.

Okay, that's news to me. Interesting. Thx.

and Ester Ledecká was not considered to finish in top 20 in PyeongChang Super-G :d

 

I´ve seen so many incredible things in sports in my life that unless it is completely over I won´t believe anything. Japanese men are great in shooting, without any spare they can very well have the day of their lifes, and it can also very well be on this Saturday. Would not surprise me at all as it will perfectly fit with Slovak sport luck ;)

    • 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.
    • Shemyakina won a bronze medal in 2014 Worlds and was one of our leader but leave the squad due to pregnancy (she has 2 daughters if I'm not mistaking, so she chose family instead of sport). And speaking of foil we have back in the day Sergiy Golubitskyi, who was Olympic silver medalist and won some medals in other competitions and coached his wife Caroline Golubitskyi - one of the German foil specialists. Even in women's foil we had medal in Women's foil at the European championship - it was Olha Leleiko, our current national coach. So no, we are pretty good fencing country, and depending on generations of our athletes some events are more "profitable" for us and some don't. 
    • Shemyakina that was a very strange story. She unexpectedly won the games but before and after she literally achieved nothing. After that success in 2012 she also completely disappeared. It's only in epee that such strange situations. That's why I've always preferred foil and sabre, because the top was more stable there, although that's changing now. The competition has grown a lot all over the world.
    • Sinner probably won't play in another edition of the Davis Cup. That shouldn't come as a surprise. Next season, Wimbledon and maybe Paris should be the goal.
    • No, our epee was good always, we have Shemyakina, who was Olympic Champion in 2012, Reizlin with bronze in 2020, medalists of Worlds like Kryvytska (who is our finisher today), Svichkar (who is our finisher in men's side) and Stankevych, European champion Kharkova, medals in other conpetitions from men's team epee who were one of the main contenders in Tokyo, but unfortunately failed to take a medal. 
    • Does Ukraine have good relations with Poland, or are they more cold, like, for example, Italy with France?
    • Until recently, Ukrainian fencing was just Kharlan and sabre. Maybe epee sometimes. I don't remember them ever was strong in foil. There was a time when Russia, Romania and Poland were strong in foil at that time when Italy dominated but I don't remember Ukraine anymore.   Hungarian women with Aida Mahomed were too strong for many years.
    • No surprise with Aaron Judge winning AL MVP and Shohei Ohtani winning NL MVP awards.   Ohtani is the second player in history to win MVP in both leagues. Frank Robinson (1961 Reds & 1966 Orioles) was the only one before.
