Draws are generally held a couple of days before the competition. I know that table tennis draw will be held on August 3rd and boxing on August 4th I think. Taekwondo and wrestling will not be done before the Opening ceremony. Andrej Gaćina is actually the 16th seed for men's table tennis tournament. The seeding rankings are not final yet but he'll probably stay in top 16. If he stays in top 16 then he'll receive a bye until round 3. 17-32 ranked players will start from round 2. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably thanks to them Dodig won't compete in doubles, so I wouldn't hold my breath. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crolympic 29 Posted July 31, 2016 #215 Share Posted July 31, 2016 There are not many places in mixed doubles, but after these withdrawals maybe we could have chance. I still don't know the reason why Dodig will not compete, is it because of him or our federation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milan 26 Posted July 31, 2016 #216 Share Posted July 31, 2016 I haven't heard anything, but if they do, I hope they will nominate Draganja instead of Coric. Draganja is the better doubles player, he has played mixed doubles with Konjuh more recently (I think they reached QF in Wimbledon last year) and their combined ranking would be better than with Coric.

Crolympic 29 Posted July 31, 2016 #217 Share Posted July 31, 2016 Dodig and Konjuh would be the best mixed doubles from Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also don't know why Darija Jurak is not there. The double Konjuh/Jurak apparently has not been nominated for women's doubles by our federation, otherwise they should be in by now. Shame, we could have had much more than four tennis players in Rio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's their interest too to have more players and more chances for medal at olympics. I hope that they had some communication with players regarding possible olympic combinations in women's doubles and mixed doubles. But I doubt it.
