Medalists at London 2012 not Qualified for Rio 2016


 Share

Recommended Posts

Germany today nominated 44 athletes for Rio. 16 in track cycling, 10 in sailing, 6 in athletics (marathon), 7 in badminton, 4 in fencing and 1 in trampoline. Maximilian Levy hasnt been nominated (a very stupid decision in my opinion, because he wouldve been a medal contender in mens keirin and Niederlag, who got nominated instead, was very weak at the world championships this year), he won silver in mens keirin and bronze in mens team sprint at the last olympic games. Robert Förstemann also hasnt been nominated, he won bronze in mens team sprint at the last olympic games.

:GER Maximilian Levy (mens keirin and mens team sprint) - Track cycling

:GER Robert Förstemann (mens team sprint) - Track cycling

 

Note: Emma Hinze (born in 1997) has been nominated for womens team sprint, she might replace Miriam Welte who still seems to be injured. Welte won a gold medal at the last olympic games in womens team sprint.

Note: Germany didnt nominate a team in sailing mixed nacra, but i dont know if we will nominate a team later on, otherwise we will give our quota place back. 

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

London all-around bronze medalist Danell Leyva failed to be selected for USA Gymnastics team.

Oh no :(

 

The Dutch commentator is already in mourning, I'm sure...he absolutely adores Leyva :( 

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!

I dont know if it was mentioned here.  But Mckayla Maroney the vault silver medalist retired in february 

 

We usually don't count retired athletes, just the ones that are active and were seeking qualification.
