South Korea shoot with a medium arrow of 9.58. Deserve final+olympic quota.

 Came so close. Less than a mm I think if Angela's arrow was left it wouldn't have been upgraded and it would be 4-4. The question now is Dutch came so close yet no quota, will they qualify later on.. Have to see

we don't have a host country quota?

Interesting that South Korea is much better on the men's side, since:

a) They have 3 in the top 8 of the individual competition on the women's side, but only 1 on the men's side

b) Usually the level of competition is higher on the men's side

 

Probably it was a massive underperformance of their women's team.

Turkey has a very young team. A 19 year old, a 21 year old and a 24 year old. They should have a lot of potential left to improve.

Crazy that Japan has an 18 year old in the team, but also a 38 year old.

I think Italy has the oldest team. They other 3 nations in the semifinal all have an 18/19 year old in their team, while the youngest italian athlete is 24 years old.

 

On the women's side Mexico and the Netherlands both had a 17 year old in their team.

right now it's 67, but in a few years most likely there won't be any retirement age anymore, as there's no money to pay retirement fees

France are already qualified as host so the question we had outstanding was whether the 4th placed team (Netherlands) would get the third quota or whether it would be reallocated to the final qualifying event.
