:JPN Naomi Osaka announced she is pregnant and will not play this season. The mystery about her not entering Australian Open has been revealed (and made a complete mockery of The Guardian article the other day which claimed she is doing some kind of mini-rebellion against the system :lol: ).

Need some local information on this one :p @hckošice I assume it might be doubles only IF she even plans to return at age 40 and doesn't become a coach or something.

Alright. Apparently her twitter account was hacked and she's not coming back :p

 

Yeah, she is working as reporter/commentator for Amazon Prime WTA coverage for some time.

Good news: Wimbledon is cutting Men’s Doubles to three sets.  They will use the time available to increase Women’s Singles to five sets.  :sleep:

    • They don't have a quota in men's singles either, but I guess they'll be able to added this Q? There are actually only 8 teams with Q in team relay from possibily 11. But I'm just surprised China isn't competing in team events this season... I think that apart from Germany, everyone is interested in China participating in women's doubles
    • For me there's a World Cup in Winterberg- it doesn't count toward Olympic qualification, and there's no test event in Cortina- it does. The World Cup ranking isn't the same as the Olympic ranking and the latter isn't listed anywhere. Unfortunately, the Luge federation is performing poorly, unlike the FIS, which has up-to-date standings.
    • One of their riders is from Xinjiang, so absolutely they will take them. 
    • Got Post 2 updated with results...glad to see  on the podium with Ro and Florian...now if they can do it individually it would be great!   
    • I also wonder if China will accept its quota in the women's doubles? If so, Germany will only have one doubles, which will increase Italy's medal chances. I'm asking about China because their women's doubles is very weak and frequently suffers DNFs, and I suspect they'll send them to the Olympics. On the other hand, without it, they won't be able to compete on the team. Is anyone here from China here and know that`s country's policy in such cases? It means someone is qualified but very weak and has no chance of winning a medal. 
    • Here is World Cup Standings, but I don't know if that's what you want: https://www.fil-luge.org/en/overall-scores?event_season_id=33.   I also don't know how they determined who got to compete, but perhaps Host Country extra quota?
    • Where can I see the current Olympic rankings? There's no link on Wikipedia. In my opinion, after the last World Cup, Italy should have had 3 people in the men's single, not the USA – the 3 athlete from the USA wasn't even in the top 20 recently, while here Gufler-Ita,  was 12th.
    • Updated Post 2 with results from Park City...Italy and United States joining the conversation!   
    • Poland, for example, has Semurunyyi in speed skating, France has Kirpichnikova in swimming, who won a medal in the 1500 meters in Paris and we have nothing. We could easily have signed someone in speed skating, cross-country skiing, etc. We could have even proposed this to Ustjugov, becouse he wanted to train with the Italian national team 2 years ago. We simply lack the intelligence and cynicism. Antropova shows that it is worth doing this, because without her we probably wouldn`t have won the gold at the Olympics and World Championships in the last 2 years.
    • It's a shame that Italy hasn't naturalized anyone from those regions for 4 years, including winter sports. Many countries do this, though the most of them are those from the former USSR, where Russia itself probably doesn't bother with too long waiting periods: Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, etc, but not only they. We only have Antropova, which isn't even case involved in the war, as it was already discussed in 2021.   https://www.oasport.it/2025/12/polina-kudermetova-non-rappresentera-piu-la-russia-la-tennista-giochera-sotto-la-bandiera-delluzbekistan/
