So looks like it goes to Hernandez and other 2 quota will allocated according to the world ranking, right? mrv86 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will now be 9 quotas allocated to the Olympic Ranking List. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrv86 2,924 Posted August 27, 2023 #123 Share Posted August 27, 2023 First individual medal for Mexico at World Championships And curiously, won by the younger brother of 2016 Olympic bronze medalist, Ismael Hernandez. Plus, this gives some margin for a second Mexican man to obtain a second quota at PanAm Games.

Unless Hernandez finish in the podium at the Panam Games ahead of other Mexican athlete, in which case, this quota reverts to World Ranking.

From my reading of the qualification document, if Hernandez finishes on the podium, his quota would revert to the next unqualified athlete at the Pan-Am Games as opposed to going to the Olympic Ranking List - the reallocation only seems to apply to the European championship. The quotas for Pan-Am slightly more complicated than other continents though: 1) - Whoever finishes first will win a quota 2) - 2 quotas will then go to best finishers from South America 3) - 2 quotas will then go to best finishers from NORECA Edited August 27, 2023 by Rafa Maciel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes - the document says the quotas are allocated to the named athletes however NOCs with more than 2 athletes qualified would be able to choose who is in their squad (although not entirely sure how a nation would qualify more than 2 athletes) El Analyzer and mrv86 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Analyzer 160 Posted August 28, 2023 #130 Share Posted August 28, 2023 Some general observations: still showing determined performance and still one of the top teams men and women great women team but the men team needs huge boosting just unlucky this tournament, still favourable for future world and Olympic medals the strongest men team so far, epic laser run between three team mates, women team is average no longer strong team, they will be in olympics but not that strong anymore a big question mark, very bad performance from great names, needs huge improvement and they have 1 year till the Olympics seems average team, can’t see them on the Olympic podium men team needs more fencing quality, women team is average very strong women team but consistency between displines needs improvement, men team is average not this Olympic I presume maybe the next one if MP still there 😉 very good team men and women, Mariana put too much effort in the first 800m laser run and she paid it in a hard way, still dangerous team if they keep their fencing performance up one of the strongest men and women teams, but if they are not 1st or 2nd before laser run they will not make the podium what do you reckon? thepharoah 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
