Last Ranking Series tournament for men's Freestyle and women's Wrestling before the World Champs, the Yasar Dogu in Istanbul (TUR)...

 

to be honest, not many names to be remembered on the mat...

 

Day #1 Finalists:

 

Women's Wrestling


-50kg: :RUS Valeriya CHEPSARAKOVA vs :IND Seema SEEMA
-55kg: :KAZ Zulfiya YAKHYAROVA vs :TUR Bediha GUN
-59kg: :IND Kumari MANJU vs :BLR Katsiaryna HANCHAR YANUSHKEVICH
-65kg: :USA Forrest Ann MOLINARI vs :RUS Natalia FEDOSEEVA

 

Men's Freestyle


-57kg: :TUR Baris KAYA vs :ITA Givi DAVIDOVI
-61kg: :IND Rahul Balasaheb AWARE vs :TUR Munir Recep AKTAS
-70kg: :AZE Murtazali MUSLIMOV vs :BUL Mihail Iliev GEORGIEV

 

 

unbelievable day for our Givi Davidovi...first, he won a crazy match against :AZE Giorgi Edisherashvili (after a 10-10 tie on the mat) in the first round, then in the semifinal match he was 8-1 down against :BUL Mikyay Salim Naim with only 40 seconds still to play and finally he found some magic to comeback and win the bout by a score of 9-8...:yikes:

unfortunately, even a win in tomorrow's final won't give him enough points to sneak in into the top 4 of the -57kg class ranking before the Worlds, so to have an easier draw in the early rounds...:(

still, it would be a prestigious win and a huge boost just ahead of the big event of the year...:fingers:

yeah I was expecting more but the quality and also the quantity isn't impressive at all. I guess most big countries are busy with their own trial system and those "already selected" athletes are focusing on the main tournament. beside that we had European Games few days ago.

 

after all those ranking points is not THAT important. the only good thing in being top 4 is you most probably will get a bye in first round. no more. there are so many unseeded great wrestlers much better than top seeds.

 

as for Iran, we have a small team here. only 79kg here is our main guy.

thankfully, a few more interesting things happened on Friday and earlier today in Istanbul...

 

in particular, everything is set for tomorrow's showdown in the men's -74kg, when a new chapter of the rivalry between Frank Chamizo and Jordan Burroughs will be on stage...

 

however, I don't expect anything special, as Chamizo is just coming back from a muscular injury that prevented his participation to the European games just a couple of weeks ago...so, he can't be in the best shape...

 

still, the names involved are always worth watching...:d

 

 

and for the joy of our dear friend @hckosice we have a couple of Slovakians on fire :yikes: :p as Gulaev made the final in the men's -79kg and Makoev will be in the bronze medal match in the -86kg...

Apparently Frank Chamizo withdraw... I hope that it's just a precaution.

    • 2028 Team Size Projection – Jan 2026 Update   Here’s an update to my 2028 Team Size Projection. While I touch upon major events changes may occur due to results in smaller events. Additionally, several sports released their qualification document so there may be cases where I have to update the projection. I will only include sports where there is an update.   Here is the link to the updated sheet.     Aquatics (Water Polo) The Men’s European Championships saw take gold. The victory moved Serbia up a few places between European nations. With that said, no one fell out of Olympic qualification with the likes of France and Romania still on the outside looking in. remains on the edge.   Athletics (Marathon) Both the Xiamen and Osaka marathons were held this month along with a few other smaller events. While there were a few changes in the rankings, in terms of Olympic projections gains an athlete in the men’s marathon at the expense of   Badminton Major tournaments include the Malaysia Open and India Open. New updates which affected projections include the women’s doubles where overtook . As Polina Buhrova is also scheduled to compete in the singles event, an additional spot has been open. Other changes in the women’s singles was loses one of their quotas. and benefit from those losses.   Indonesia’s loss on the women’s side is offset by gaining a second player in the men’s singles. This puts   on the outside.   Canoeing The qualification document for both Slalom and Sprint were released/updated. No significant changes were found in the Sprint update. Slalom had significant changes relative to 2024 where the initial quotas will be decided by rankings and kayak cross will now have significant quotas being allocated. After adjustment, the following nations lost a quota; Andorra, Chinese Taipei, Ireland, New Zealand, North Macedonia, Slovakia, and Sweden. The following nations gained a quota; Canada, China, France, Italy, South Africa, Spain, and Tunisia.   Cricket The Women’s T20 World Cup Qualifier was held. No changes to the projection.   Equestrian (Dressage & Jumping) Various World Cup events were held. No changes to the projections were made.   Fencing We had two Grand Prix this month, one for epee and the other for sabre. In men’s epee, overtakes . On the women’s side, the United States moved into the top 4 in the team ranking, pushing Estonia down to fifth. This pushed out of Olympic qualification while takes the Americas quota. This caused a downstream effect on the individual side as Ukraine takes an individual quota and Canada relinquishes their quota, additionally, gained a quota while lost one.   In men’s sabre, now takes the Asian team quota pushing down to just an individual quota. No changes were found in women’s sabre.   Handball Four men’s continental championships were held this month. finished top in Africa while a couple of upsets were saw in South America and Asia where and won over and respectively. Despite their wins, they currently haven’t leapfrogged into being projected to qualify. We’ll see how they perform at the World Championships.   Europe saw finish fourth. This was enough to push it into Olympic qualification projection. They pushed out.   Rowing The qualification document was released. There was a change in boat allocation relative to 2024 and the continental qualifier was slightly different than what I projected. Additionally, I assumed coastal rowing would allow 2 men and 2 women to compete in its three events, but the max is 1 man and 1 woman. This has caused significant changes to the projections.   Overall, the United States lost four quotas. Canada, France, Germany, Ireland, Lithuania, New Zealand, Norway, and Spain lost two quotas and Algeria, Argentina, Croatia, Cuba, Egypt, Kazakhstan, Netherlands, Portugal, Tunisia lost one quota.   The following nations have gained two athletes; Japan, Morocco while the following nations gained one athlete; Angola, Austria, Belgium, Chile, Chinese Taipei, Cote d’Ivoire, Denmark, Estonia, Kuwait, Latvia, Mexico, Romania, Philippines, Paraguay, Puerto Rico, South Africa, South Korea, Switzerland, Togo, Uzbekistan, Vanuatu   Rugby Sevens Fixing a couple of mistakes. First on the men, actually has the Asian quota over and in the women as is essentially shutting down the program, I think it is only right to remove them until they decide to compete again. This means is also projected to qualify.   As for new updates, we saw the third tier SVNS compete, which brought no new updates and the Singapore SVNS. I also didn’t add the Dubai or Cape Town SVNS in my calculations. For both, while there was some shuffling no one ultimately fell out.   Shooting The Asian Shotgun Championships were held this month. A few top shooters were missing. The only change to the projection is is set to qualify in women’s trap, pushing out   Squash The Tournament of Champions was held this month. Additionally, the qualification document was released. There was some restriction as to how many nations can send two players and this sport will offer universality quotas.   The following nations lost an athlete quota; Colombia, France, Great Britain, Hong Kong, Malaysia, and New Zealand. The following nations gained an athlete quota; Canada, Pakistan, Spain (x2), Switzerland, Ukraine   Triathlon The qualification document was released. There are a few changes relative to 2024. Projection changes include: Losses to Hong Kong and Slovenia and gains for Austria and China.   Weightlifting The qualification document was released. One change to be made was the reallocation process for host nation quotas. Due to this, El Salvador Iraq, Palau, Sri Lanka, Tuvalu, and Vanuatu lost quotas while Australia, China, Dominican Republic, Iran, and Samoa (x2) gained quotas.   Wrestling The qualification document was released. There were some significant changes to the qualification process including using the world rankings and the final qualifier only consisting of non-qualified nations. The projection changes are as follows; losses to Belarus, Bulgaria, China, Georgia, Germany, Hungary, Japan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Mongolia, Russia, South Korea, Sweden, and Turkey.   Belgium and Lithuania gained 2 quotas while American Samoa, Austria, Estonia, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Latvia, Madagascar, Spain, and Turkmenistan gained 1 quota.
    • Looks like we in the Philippines are in the same situation. No news yet on whether we’ll be able to watch the Games 
    • Cricket is any day in a better position than Baseball, Modern Pentathlon or Rowing 8s globally
    • http://i.imgur.com/gLJZbix.jpg   Honestly football is just on another level. For other sports, an expanded field or creating multiple host cities likely only works with baseball, cricket and maybe basketball, and only in very specific countries.
