Uche Eke I guess he’s American born or something. 

 

The only routines I could find from him are from 2017. He's not half bad. Definitely he has a big potential, and I hope he does well here.

Ah, thanks for clearing that up. I was a little confused when looking at the schedule as to why Judo finished before the opening ceremonies began.

Archery, canoeing, table tennis and tennis will be direct qualifiers. Athletics and swimming are eligible events to achieve the qualification time. Everything else I think offers world ranking points (not 100% sure on beach volleyball). Except handball, which either directly qualifies teams to the men's qualifier or offers ranking points which are then used to determine which teams will participate.

@dcro And Josh, This will serve as the Group F Jumping qualification from what I’ve seen. Group F was supposed to be held in Rabat, so it makes sense.

It's listed for October and besides Group F includes non-African nations.

Well the technical guide, website, and Wikipedia disagree with that.

Wikipedia still lists the October event as the qualification event and it hasn't changed on FEI, which are pretty good at keeping things updated. Are you sure it just doesn't offer world ranking points?
