Really bad weekend for us.

 

We might be without wrestlers in rio. One tournament left.

 

And in judo actually I was hoping for 3 quotas. Now it looks more like only one quota. Matic in danger to lose the fixed qualification, which would mean no Rio for Kumric. His quota is anyway in danger as minaskin won medal. He is probably still out of cont. quota :(

 

Well, that's the story of our qualifications... Pretty much only athletes that "must qualify" manage to qualify. Those that are on the "edge" very rarely succeed.

New judoranking is out, and right now it would be two quotas for us. Barbara Matic just 3 points in front of Stam and in last fixed qualification place. This gives a  chance for Kumric, who right now has a continetal quota. Minaskin (EST) took him over, but the HUngarian lost his cont. quota to another hungarian athlete (Gerscak, has 10 points more than Cirjenics) and Fletcher (GBR) is now among 22, he took over the australian guy.

Next week is Panamerican Cahmpionship and there is no danger for Matic to be overtaken.

Two tournaments left, and it will be very close. One quota is safe, but the other one

 

Right now we have 7 judoka register for Baku (Kumric, both Matic sisters, Maranic, Sutalo, Miskovic and Djakovic)

No registration yet for Almaty.

just one more remark regarding judo: Stam has to be 7th in Baku or 3rd in Almaty to take over Matic.

At the same time Matic could do 60 points by 1 win in Baku.

Dangerous could be also a judoka from Mongolia. The chinese one is not registered for Baku yet.

Does anybody know if we will send  a boxer to the WSB/APB qualification tournament.

I think Marko Calic and Josip Bepo Filipi do fullfil the criteria, unfortunately both in the same category (91kg)

  • 2 weeks later...

Seems that Lizatovic (- 59 kg), Etlinger (- 66 kg), Starcevic, Neven Zugaj (both - 75 kg), Nenad Zugaj (- 85 kg) and Lavric (- 130 kg) will participate at the Qualification Tournament in Istanbul. Would be a disappointment if we won't have a wrestler in Rio.

 

Our Handball Team will play against France, Denmark, Qatar, Tunisia and Argentina. Seems to be a tough Group at first sight, but in the other Group are four strong European Teams (Germany, Poland, Sweden and Slovenia) and the host Nation Brazil. Not sure how good Qatar really is though.

I don't think we can have two guys in the same category. They will have to chose. I would go with Starcevic. Otherwise good selection.

Looks like only Gaćina qualified in table tennis, as expected.

 

Smallest table tennis team ever and the first time since 1992 we don't have a woman. Better 1 than nothing I guess...

Your're right. And apparently they did choose Starcevic. GR Events will be tomorrow.

    • I thought that was the case.  I just started watching skimo last year, but even then, I didn't recognize any of the women.  I recognized the top Swiss guy, I think.

    • Unexpected boost for Team .  They are at least going to have a credible excuse if anyone fails any drug tests.     American rapper Snoop Dogg has been named an 'honorary coach' for Team USA at next year's Winter Olympics.   The United States Olympic & Paralympic Committee (USOPC) announced on Thursday the 54-year-old will take on "a volunteer role celebrating and supporting America's athletes off the field of play".   Snoop Dogg named 'honorary coach' for Team US at Winter Olympics - BBC Sport
    • Just now getting around to these results...glad to see USA win a gold.  Didn't think we were much of a contender here.  Home soil luck?
    • Qualification status that could realistically change this week, barring (except where noted) new time qualifying performances :   Men   500m : pretty much done   1000m : pretty much done   1500m : pretty much done   5000m : one outlier at the moment  Semirunniy. He's currently not qualified for the distance being 18/15 in the rankings and R1 time-wise. He could still punch his ticket :    either by getting into the top 15 with a very good result (a podium or even a win would be needed). If it is at the expanse of  Henriksen or, less likely,  Swings, then the loser is out. If it is at the expanse of any other, then  Sasaki is out.  or by hoping Lorello gets into the top 15 at the expanse of Henriksen or Swings. or by going faster than Sasaki (6'08''834) which seems reachable after his 10k, even in Hamar.   10000m : once again Henriksen is on the bubble. If  Maly, Petzold of  Farthofer gets into the top 9 at the expanse of Malfatti or Snellink, then he's out.    Mass-start : not much at stake considering most of the reserve skaters will already receive an additional quota - at the moment    . Morino  will try to enter top 32 and be in those additional quota spots.    Team pursuit : pretty much done   Women   500m : pretty much done   1000m : with  Thorup not cleared to participate one more spot is up for grabs.  Scholz would need to be in front of both Herzog (done as she's not entered) and Czerwonka (7 points) after this final week.  Silaeva would be left out.    1500m : Lamarche not competing and  Zofia Braun being promoted to A division, Poland has got a real shot at a second quota. Braun will need to stay in front of Scholz and Weidemann, who could still finish ahead of her depending on how good Braun fares in A division.  Smedding would suffer from a Polish rise.   3000m : match-up between  Yang and  Horikawa only separated by 3 points. At the moment Yang is out (R2) but if they exchange position in the standings then Horikawa is out (R1). They could also both finish ahead of Hofmann, at the expanse of  Golubeva ultimately.  Jasch has a small shot at a second German quota too, by edging the former two skaters, eliminating them.    5000m : pretty much done   Mass-start :  Santo Rodrigues is hanging on by a thread. The cruelty of it is that those immediately behind her -    - will get an aditional spot anyways, so it does not really matter if they finish in the top 24 ahead of her, except it would allow France to enter a second skater and two girls in the MS.   Team pursuit : three-way asymetrical tie for the last SOQP spot between   and , all in division A. Norway needs to beat both as they can't rely on a time Q, Kazakhstan needs to beat Norway to ensure (if they fail to beat China) the first SOQT spot and avoid the Italian wild-card*, whereas China is pretty safe. *  is currently out but they "only" need to get into a reserve spot to be qualified, which is going faster than 3'00'92 (or faster than Norway if they too decide to skate faster). They were not far off this mark in Hamar earlier this year but the team was in a better shape overall.
