finally, Abraham Conyedo (world bronze medallist 2018 in men's freestyle -97kg) got his official :ITA Italian passport/citizenship and therefore he'll be able to enter the next Olympic qualification tournaments under the Italian Flag...:cheer:

 

still no news of Kudiiamagomedov (men's freestyle -86kg) and Khakelashvili (men's greco-roman wrestling, -97kg)...most likely they won't be able to represent Italy also next year...:(:facepalm:

UWW is changing the draw technology

 

https://unitedworldwrestling.org/article/wrestling-modifies-draw-brings-blockchain-mats

 

personally I had no doubt the draw wasn't "random" in 2019 World Championships (and also 2018 World Champs) and it was fixed in favor of the host nation in both tournaments. specially this year in freestyle Kazakhstan had super easy draw in 9 out 10 weights ! but with this change, UWW somehow confirms it. well they never officially accept their corruption but maybe this is the a step into the right direction

if anybody interested in Japan Wrestling, they had a rule, whoever won a medal at the 2019 Worlds, also secured his/her place for Tokyo 2020. in other weights their nationals (which is in process right now) apparently acts as their Olympic team trials. whoever wins goes to the Olympics (or the Olympic qualifiers)

 

Women's 53kg: Mayu Mukaida

Women's 57kg: Risako Kawai

Women's 62kg: Yukako Kawai

Women's 76kg: Hiroe Minagawa

Greco-Roman 60kg: Kenichiro Fumita

 

Japan also won quotas in Men's 65 and 74kg freestyle and women's 68kg but since they finished 5th, the Olympic place is not decided yet.

 

I skip the non-Olympic weights and those weights above, this is the list of nationals winners in other Olympic weights.

 

Men's 97kg: Naoya Akaguma

Men's 125kg: Tetsuya Tanaka

Greco-Roman 97kg: Yuta Nara

 

finals for tomorrow:

Men's 86kg: Sosuke Takatani vs Hayato Ishiguro

Greco 87kg: Masato Sumi vs Takahiro Tsuruda

Greco 130kg: Arata Sonoda vs Ryota Kono

 

there will be important finals on Sunday. beside women's wrestling where Japan is favorite for medal in every single weight, I'm more interested in 67kg Greco and 3 lower weights of freestyle, 57, 65 and 74 and it seems the organizers intentionally put all those important weights for Japan to the last day. we will have women's 50 and 68 + freestyle 57, 65, 74 + Greco 67 and 77 all in the last day.

 

if you are interested, draws are available here, but in Japanese :d

at 74kg. both Mao Okui (who won the quota for Japan) and also world bronze medalist Yuhi Fujinami lost before the SF

4 times World and Olympic Champion Eri Tosaka lost 6-0 to Susaki and can't defend her title in Tokyo

Olympic Champion Sara Dosho lost in SF 9-2 to Murikawa , but since she won the quota for Japan, she will have another chance to challenge the gold medalist from here.

Of course, she failed to make the 2019 World Team and her replacement won a medal, that means no second chance for her or anybody else in that weight.

Thats big shock for me. :yikes:I dont recall that you published that news before. 

Huge surprise. She would have been first wrestler with 5 straight gold medals.

at the end of Japan nationals, this will be Japan's squad for the Olympics, wrestlers in bold are already qualified for the Olympics, wrestlers not in bold are qualified for the Olympic qualifiers and Olympic itself (if they manage to win the quota for Japan) in some weights where Japan has the quota (but not medal) and someone else won the Japan nationals, there will be playoff between them on February

    • I love that it is more straightforward in relation to the number of quotas and does not allow possible problems as it was in Tokyo and Paris.
    • I love the judo qualification system, for me is the best in all disciplines. It combines a strong circuit, and it allows 100 or so countries to participate in.   So, maybe, if UWW does its job properly, it will be a good thing.
    • China Media Group (CMG) will broadcast all 116 gold medal events of the Milan Winter Olympics live on CCTV-1, CCTV-5, CCTV-5+ and CCTV-16. It will also use technologies such as 4K/8K ultra-high definition to enhance the viewing experience. Live broadcasts of all events will be carried out from 16:00 Beijing time to 06:00 the next day.
    • The strength of the UK is that they are 100% focused on the track, while Italy must to navigate between the track and the road: the line-up is different for practically every event, etc. Paternoster should focus 100% on the track; she won't win anything big on the road anymore. As it is, she's weak both there and there. The situation is different with Balsamo, as she's also having significant success on the road and likely earns the most money there.
    • Discovery+ in the UK have also got their schedule up now.     I notice that only thing listed as being in UHD is the Opening Ceremony though....     
    • The problem over the last few years was that no-one was able to keep pace with the big Katie Archibald turns. Looks to be sorted now.  
    • The women's top 50 is so crammed with athletes from the same five nations that it is not inconceivable they are unable to fill the full quota from the top 50, in which case a third double spot would open up between USA/BEL/GBR
    • That women's pursuit team looks brutally fast. Batter you over the head into submission brutal, perhaps not seen since the early Trott-Rowsell days The 4 minute barrier could be on borrowed time.   The two British women sprinters Finucane and Caldwell also look pretty ominous, indeed the whole women's sprint team looks in some shape and with some depth to get that result without Finucane   Work to do for the British men's teams, but they won't be unhappy either, not to mention Joe Truman's unexpected Kilo win.
    • I prefer to do mine like this guy (https://app.podiumsport.it/) does his "Projected Medals" as probability based rather than straight medal picking... all things being equal, conversion rates should be about the same and the outliers come out in the wash. Unfortunately most people just like medal picking, and think any other approach is weird  
    • So probably: Men Oceania: Americas: Africa: Asia: One of  Europe: One of Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (probably not)  and whichever countries don’t qualify from Asian Games.  Universality: ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of the above in World Rankings    and one of  (most likely) or  seem safe with two quotas. The other will be favourites if a third team gets allocated two.    Women Oceania: Europe: One of Americas:  /  if US is ineligible due to their host quota, if the host quota gets reallocated then Canada will be in contention in the rankings Africa:   Asia: One of   Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (x1?)  (x1/2)  (x1/2), whichever doesn’t qualify out of  / ,  and  ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of above.  Universality: ?    is safe with two quotas between  it’ll be tough for whoever misses out of those three.   nevermind ,
