But it would be disaster if Manu compete only in one individual.

I am considering Manu to start in both events. We have only one quota in 25m. If we do win another quota in 25m at Asian qualifiers, we will most likely swap it for a quota in 50x3, so that Anjum can take part there while selecting Apurvi and Elavenil/Mehuli in 10m Air Rifle.

One more gold for India. It will be interesting to see them at OG... World cups are not same like OG. But imo they will win at least 3 medals (two in pistol and one in rifle-"SAFE" medals).

Add the 2 mixed events too. Yeshashwini won it in absence of Manu (MQS - 580 easily the 2nd best qualifying) And then we have Abhishek and Saurabh to partner them. Not to forget the unbeaten pair of Anjum /Divyansh in air rifle mixed.

There are no safe medals in Olympics shooting. We were sure about Jitu’s medal in Rio but alas. But, must say this is the best period in Indian shooting. First time we are near the top of medal chart consistently at World level. And hopefully, we would be near top in Tokyo as well. :fingers:

But in my view I was so very impressed with esha in the 10m MQS ..... she is my city girl and beat Manu in the nationals ...... she is just 14 years in her first senior WC. and shot a magnificent 577 ????

I personally do not feel this is very likely ..... Anjum is currently world number 2 in 10 m air rifle why would you swap her 10m air rifle quota away ...... i think if we get a 25M quota in the asians we would swap it for 1) the 10m air rifle mens second quota just in case we do not get this in the asians - this will allow us to field our second mixed rifle team  or 2) fill in the second rapid fire 25 m place for anish / arpit / adarsh if any of them do not make it or 3) select a shotgun shooter / 3 position missed quota in rifle

Any swap has to be in the same gender, so can’t swap any extra quota we might get in 25m Women’s Pistol for 10m Air Men’s Rifle or 25m Men’s Pistol. Our shotgun team is hopeless, so no point in swapping for them. 

 

Anjum is an amazing shooter but personally I believe Elavenil and Mehuli are better than her in 10m. Anjum is clearly our best shooter in 50x3 but I rank her as 4th best in 10m. So, I believe that such a swap would be best for us. 

 

But, let us first wait and win that extra quota and then discuss which swap we should make.

    • The NFL are pushing had to develop flag football in Australia in hopes of getting it included in 2032. I hope they fail tbh.   Single gender sports fail the gender equality requirement so netball is out unless they can rapidly fix their gender problem. World Netball not so long ago was refusing utterly to sanction men's international netball or even support the growth of men's netball so they kind of sabotaged themselves and are only changing courses out of self interest because Brisbane was awarded the Olympics.   It doesn't even make sense to propose Aussie rules given how poor the participation is outside of Australia.
    • - Great Britain Team Size Prediction for Winter Olympic Games 2026 Milano Cortina   Ski Sports   Alpine Skiing  (4) - The qualification system is a bit confusing, but from what I gather the team is Guaranteed 2 quotas (one for each gender), and then more are given for rankings. I can only see 1 female qualifying, but the men's team is a bit stronger, and could improve with some juniors coming through. I would say a baseline of 3, with a max of 5, 6 if things really improve.  Cross Country Skiing  (3) - The men's team came 11th in the world cup last year, and with some good results could move up to top 10 which would give 3 quotas, The women's team is non existant.  Ski Jumping  (0) - Nope Nordic Combined  (0) - Nope Freestyle Skiing  (6) - Based on last year rankings, the athletes are ranked: M Moguls (26/30), M Ski Cross (26/32), M Halfpipe (33/25), M Slopestyle (39+40/30) W Moguls (23+42/30), W Halfpipe (3/25), W Big Air (5/30), W Slopestyle (19+22/30)  Barring Injury , thats 2 quotas on the women's side, and I would predict 4 more, with a max team of 7 or 8. Snowboarding  (2) - W Halfpipe (34/25) is the only unknown quota, as both Charlotte Bankes and Mia Brookes should qualify easily. Huw Nightlingale may get a spot for the Mixed Team snowboard cross but I don't know how it works. Biathlon  (0) - Nope Ski Mountaineering  (0) - Nope     Skating Sports   Speed Skating  (2) - Cornelius Kersten and Elia Smelding should qualify, although they both haven't competed this year. Short Track Speed Skating  (2) - A team of 5 went to the world but only a couple could really qualify Figure Skating  (4) - Fear and Gibson should qualify, and the pair team is ranked 16th in the world with 19 qualifiers.      Sleigh Sports   Luge  (0) - Nope Skeleton  (6) - A full team is certainly on the cards, but with only ranking points from the next season counting a lot could change Bobsleigh  (6) - Brad Hall and Co should qualify for both 2 and 4 man. I doubt any more will qualify from the mens side. Adele Nicholl on the womens should also qualify in both events     Team Sports   Curling  (12) - Anything but a full team would be a dissapointment Ice Hockey  (0) - The men were the only chance       Total Optimistic Prediction  -  (60) Total Pessimistic Prediction  - (32)   Total Realistic Prediction  -  (47)

    • North American rugby quotas ( and qualified automatically)    M: and W: and  
    • I remember Caroline Golubitsky. She competed with Vezzali for a while but not for long. Rita Konig, whom Vezzali defeated in the final of the Olympic Games in 2000, was more famous, as well as Sabine Bau and Anja Mueller. From what I remember, the Germans competed fiercely with us at some point, but they almost always lost.
