Looking at the rankings, Gaćina is currently the only one who is in qualification position (even if we exclude athletes that are likely going to qualify at Asian/European qualifications). So, this tournament might be the only chance for others to qualify, and this is a really hard tournament to do so because none of the Europeans is already qualified (except Baku 2015 winners...).

 

You are right. Gacina is qualified as there is only few weeks left unitl the ranking will be applied. Considering the fact that majority of Asian players will qualify through their local tournament he will be among 20 top players. The others have the chance only here and it will be very hard. I would be very surprised if they manage. I somehow hope for Primorac because it would be his 8th Olympic Games.

We could end up only with one player in Rio.

Tan and Rakovac ended the day with a win. Tan will go against Hungary for the first place in the group tomorrow. Rakovac should be first in her group after defeating Chinese-Portuguese player today.

Negative surprise was Primorac with 0-4 against Serbian guy.

Tian Yuan as expected no chance against Pavlovich (BLR). Tubikanec probably will have her important match tomorrow to reach main round.

Very positive surprise is Rakovec. The portuguese is number 17 here in the ranking.

I watch Tan and he looks quite good so far. Both games were absolutly easy wins.

Well, Primorac pretty much didn't show anything after qualifying for London 2012 via rankings (in early 2011)... It was always unrealistic to expect something from him.

Bad news for Zlatko Kumric. After the continental championship in Oceania and Africa there were a lot of changes in the judo rankings. He lost his continental quota due to big step forward for a australian guy. Now european continental quota currently is going to hungary and great britain. Somehow stupid that an australian guy by just winning two matches (against nzl and fiji) earns 400 points :facepalm:

 

Kumric needs a very good result at th upcoming European Championship, same as Miskovic,

And Matic is now also under danger to loose at least her autmoatic qualification, and then she would block the continental quota for the others two.

There are two more tournaments in May (AZE and KAZ), but crotian judoka are not registered for that two yet. If not our federation is crazy

Australian guy will be out of the automatic qualification zone fairly soon.

Marsic out in the Quarterfinals

http://www.boks-savez.hr/hbs/oi-kvalifikacije-viceprvkinja-europe-zaustavila-marsic/

 

Actually how does it work with the quota at the WCH. What if someone who won the quota at the ECH is among top 4?

    • I would say they will not be eligible. But it realy abotut the wording every federation has in its papers. World Aquatics changes their policies several times (especially after Mazepin "solved the issues" persoanlly - as witnessed one russian Olympic champion)   Inoirtnat notes on FIS decisions:   FIS points are frozen for ruissns and belorussians - so the situation is not so complicated for a lot of them. The list of the AIN`s is not final as the list from ISU was. It means that persons mau be not only removed from the list but added as well. I expect russians to try some freestyle applications before the stage in China, for example. FIS has not problems with the deny of visa or entris by the host countries. So they kept the possibility to close the doors for the russians for all the countries as ICF did. No sanctions for this, no removing events from the Olympic qualification list, no host changes,   * * * * * Here is the the relevant extract from FIS papers for Aerials tram event. What do you think?
    • Not only Korostelev but all 3 russian entries. I will bring the detail 
    • And will bet that the IBU is a lot richer than the FIS because their wealth is based on German TV contracts.  
    • Russians filed an appeal to CAS against IBU. But I do not believe they will get any result in time to grab quotas. I suppose IBU will not agree to have "fast" hearings as FIS did. And i suppose IBU will fight in CAS without intention to lose as FIS did.
    • hmm - aren't Australia and New Zealand the only nations that actually compete in the Oceania Cup?
    • If Australia and New Zealand earn quotas through Pro League, then does that mean 3rd placed team from Oceania Cup takes quota? 
    • Right now russians themselves metioned that they have 2 main options for women`s quota: - Peklecova will was not included into the international doping testing pool (RUSADA is still incompliant after that scandal) - D.Nepryaeva had training camps at the occupied territories - it is the best way to avoid of the international doping testing at all     P.S. Little detail - according to Vaelbe 90% of russian skiera are contracted with russian army or other security services.
    • We had no real problems with russians for a long time. It was a normal sport rivalry. It was common case that statues of russian politicians and poets remained in place even in the Western Ukraine which was joined by the Soviet Union much later. Lyskun was pro-Ukrainian according to her statement but she kept conctcts with her former coach. That coach moved to russia earlier and could do some brainwashing. I would say that the coach may have financial motivation to do this. By the way we had similar case with Bondar from Luhansk who moved to russia in 2014. What is really interesting - russians have a lot of resources but it took them 4 yeats to find someone relatively well-known in sport area to stage this propaganda performance.       Yes, this web-site is active and maintained. The list is beeing updated. But it is not an official goverment resource and it is operated by the non-goverment organization. It was created to draw attention of the national security services to the activities of some people and provide some initial foundations for further formal investigations.
    • AIN's will skipped (they got American visa too late) 2nd WC stage (but their could compete in 3rd WC stage) and, therefore, their chances to got more than 1 entry in OG have become lower, especially,  if their will not allow to compete in Sigulda (but after their participation in Poland's short-track WT stage, I won't give 100% chances for that).   Maybe problem with entries will be solved by itself)
