How Many Medals do You Expect from Your Nation at the Summer Olympic Games 2020? (2019 version)


Recommended Posts

Between 0 and a reallocation in weightlifting in the future.

 

Longshot, a bronze in tae kwon do.

That's a real pessimistic guess, surely there is more?

No, it's not pessimistic is the hard reality of 6 years of poor planning and continuity followed by 6 months of even bigger robbery of the new "leftist" administration.

 

Just read my last post in the fencing thread... that poor girl was falsely accused of doping, then every tribunal and sports authority didn't back her claims, which were even supported by evidence from a lab in Germany.

 

The only representative in Congress that has raised his voice to question the recent scandals in our swimming fed has been threatened by FINA itself due to "interference" and the president is trying to split our best synchro pair.

 

Our "best" race walker was caught doping and their defense was all fabricated, and there isn't any other athlete that has real chances to medal.

 

Pro Clubs in the Mexican Football League couldn't bother to let the best U23 players to attend Pan Am Games, because they're more concerned with the box office of a secondary pityful tournament.

 

Tae Kwon Do federation is under the radar of the government because it has been fabricating receipts to cover their expenses.

 

Archery federation dismissed their Korean archers, and look at the disaster at World Championships.

 

So it's a bleak picture what lies ahead.

I am curious about Zanetti. Wasnt he favorite for gold before Rio? :mumble:


Not really. He didn't even qualify for the rings final at the 2015 World Championships. Petrounias was on fire and he was the clear favorite for the gold medal in 2016. I hope neither Zanetti nor Petrounias win the gold medal in 2020, though. We have new specialists arising and it's important to have variety among the champions.

Gymnastics - Artistic - well it’s hard to predict, we have a chance if women’s team qualify, Iordache is back and with Golgota and our juniors Sfiringu and Stanciulescu we can make it. If we qualify i think we can win at least 1 medal if not I hope Iordache to have a great comeback.


No chance in hell. I'm sorry to burst your bubble, but a team medal is impossible (I strongly believe Romania will not even qualify a women's team).

I'm expecting a good result from Brazil in next Olympic Games. Although this is going to be a hard task after the Olympics at home, we can win some important medals on new sports like Karate, Surfing and Skateboarding. Brazil's desire is finish the games at top 10 on medal table.

Thanks.

I actually started to like Arturo in 2012 when he was flawless. His performance was something perfect. After that i watched WC and up until Rio, that was it.

Elefterios was perfect back in Rio, but before start i somehow hoped for another gold for Zanetti.

I like rings the most so i will observe it closely this time.

Yes, for this we have to win many gold medals. Probably, it is not going to happen,

Well, yeah the hardest part is to qualify for Olympics but I have faith. Golgota, Crisan, Holbura, Ghiciuc, Iordache, Cimpian, Puiu can make it

    • For Modern Pentathlon, it's interesting that Africa only gets one continental championship spot, considering how well Egypt does in the event.  (But then again, it's max 2 athletes per NOC per gender.)  Presuming that an Egyptian wins the African CCh, I suppose their performance in the other major competitions will allow the second competitor to come through.
    • Statement from the president of the russian Luge federation (yesterday): "Our team is in Kazakhstan and is preparing to apply for U.S. visas. We are setting an example for our entire country, especially for the younger generation. They see that a difficult path is not a reason to give up. It teaches perseverance. In this perseverance lies our shared strength, our mission to millions of young people for whom sports are a guiding point and a shining star. I believe in our country, in our strong-spirited guys. I sincerely love and respect our president, Vladimir Putin. He is the best president in the world. May God grant him strength and good health."   Do they deserve neutral status?
    • I did not think it would happen again but... I created similar post for Paris - 2024 https://totallympics.com/forums/topic/27489-ain-athletes-qualification-for-paris-2024-olympic-games-and-reallocation-of-quotas-post1-updated-1507/#comments  I was not sure if that reallocations would really happen but the reality was even more serious than the expectations. According to this research 43% of the neutral statuses issued by the IFs were fake AIN  - https://razom22.com/neutrality-research/  And the figures are based on the IOC decisions - not on the evaluations by Ukrainian NOC or sport ministry. Right now the situation is absolutely unclear. As usually )) Some notes: 1. Russians will not reject quotas for 2026 as they did for 2024 in judo and wrestling. 2. AINERP may be more loyal to russians due to the new member - Watanabe. His federation issued AIN status to Melnikova who took part in the primaries of the russian ruling party, had phots with Z and e .t.c. 3. I do not expect a lot of reallocations becaues of the total small number of the rus/blr athletes in qualification events right now. 4. BUT, even with these small numbers we see that FIS allowed to compete several incompliant persons.        Short notes from the IOC statement before Paris - 2024:   1. IOC`s decisions to reject quotas are final. 2. IOC`s decisions to approve quotas are not final - new facts may lead to the rejection of invitation. 3. IOC`s decisions cannot be appealed - NOCs were not invited to the Games, so it is a good will to invite individual athletes... or not   russians Sports Athlete(s) Discipline Possible Reallocation NOC IOC Decision + IF reallocation if happened Figure skating Adeliia PETROSIAN Women's singles Stefania Yakovleva Confirmed by IOC Figure skating Petr GUMENNIK Men's singles Davide Lewton Brain Confirmed by IOC belorussians     Sports Athlete(s) Discipline Possible Reallocation NOC IOC Decision + IF reallocation if happened Figure skating Viktoriya SAFONOVA Women's singles Stefania Yakovleva Confirmed by IOC  
    • I would say they will not be eligible. But it realy abotut the wording every federation has in its papers. World Aquatics changes their policies several times (especially after Mazepin "solved the issues" persoanlly - as witnessed one russian Olympic champion)   Inoirtnat notes on FIS decisions:   FIS points are frozen for ruissns and belorussians - so the situation is not so complicated for a lot of them. The list of the AIN`s is not final as the list from ISU was. It means that persons mau be not only removed from the list but added as well. I expect russians to try some freestyle applications before the stage in China, for example. FIS has not problems with the deny of visa or entris by the host countries. So they kept the possibility to close the doors for the russians for all the countries as ICF did. No sanctions for this, no removing events from the Olympic qualification list, no host changes,   * * * * * Here is the the relevant extract from FIS papers for Aerials tram event. What do you think?
    • Not only Korostelev but all 3 russian entries. I will bring the detail 
    • And will bet that the IBU is a lot richer than the FIS because their wealth is based on German TV contracts.  
    • Russians filed an appeal to CAS against IBU. But I do not believe they will get any result in time to grab quotas. I suppose IBU will not agree to have "fast" hearings as FIS did. And i suppose IBU will fight in CAS without intention to lose as FIS did.
    • hmm - aren't Australia and New Zealand the only nations that actually compete in the Oceania Cup?
    • If Australia and New Zealand earn quotas through Pro League, then does that mean 3rd placed team from Oceania Cup takes quota?
