At the ongoing ILCA 7 world championships in Adelaide,  

7 quota places are available for Paris 2024
 

After 8/10 races 

 

Vishnu Saravanan is in pole position among those eligible for a quota place. 
He is on 64 points & has a considerable lead going into the final two races. 
 

Hopefully tomorrow we will have our first quota place in sailing ⛵️ for Paris .

Neha squandered a similar chance,but hope Vishnu doesn't do it.

 Vishnu gets one of the 7 available quotas & we have our first sailing ⛵️ quota for Paris. His last 3 races were tough & nearly lost it. 

But finishing 26th/152 sailors in a world championships is a commendable achievement. 

Hopefully Nethra can do well in the last chance regatta but it will be tough as only 3 quota places are available.
Are we eligible for the the emerging nations programme (ENP) quota?

Since Vishnu has got the quota it looks difficult. But its possible for her seeing the performance they may give also.

Taniksha and Bhavani are the only ones who are close in the race for the Olympics 2024 for India in fencing at the moment.

In Judo, Avtar Singh is the only Indian in qualification zone for Olympics in -100kg category.

But in Fencing there is continental qualifiers & if we can’t qualify via rankings , there is a chance to get the quota in continental qualifiers.

Yes in all likelihood we will qualify only one Judoka , most likely Avtar . As qualification scenario is very complex if you are not in top of your category. 
But good thing is we have entered a team in most of the grand prix till the ranking cutoff date. 
In recently concluded Portugal grand prix  all our judoka lost in first round itself except Asmita (48kg W ) , who reached till 3rd round winning two of her bouts.

Mid day Adelaide time. There will be a separate Race 11 among the quota contenders which is not the medal race . Medal race will be among the top 10 sailors to decide rankings.
