2023 World Championship entries in Greco-Roman

 

Russia (AIN) is entering a very weird squad! I don't even know half of these guys. :yikes: I wonder if their better guys are banned for supporting Putin (or something like that) or they simply decided to send a bunch of nobodies ? they still have Kabaloev, Semenov and Sargsian though.

Do you think this is the final list? It’s still one month to go and usually the entry list is published much closer to the event.

this list is surely not final but based on my experience, we will have some changes but not too much. probably 1 or 2 changes in each weight. and some countries entered two wrestlers in each weight (only 1 will wrestle obviously)

 

 

I follow some of the favorite teams (Iran, Turkey, Azerbaijan, Georgia) and I know this is their final list. JPN and USA entered two in each weight but I already know their final list.

 

and of course late injuries are always possible. we just had to make a change in the freestyle team today.

I don't know what kind of policy is following UWW, but if they are in line with the IOC demand, all those wrestlers enrolled in military clubs (CSKA, Dinamo and so on) or registered for clubs owned by some oligarcs sanctioned by the EU and/or UN are not eligible to participate in any international event :mumble:

are clubs like CSKA and Dynamo even active in wrestling ? never heard of it :dunno:

 

Russia didn't publish anything about their Greco squad. but I followed the process of their freestyle trials. can't wait to see the entry list for freestyle. I wonder if this is the same team (those who won their trials) or they have to make changes

According to the Official documents at the IOC website russia is not allowed to participate in the Wrestling World championships at all. They missed Continental Championships.

this is not new. that rule always existed (even in non-Olympic years you have to participate in continental champs to be eligible for the worlds) but UWW president had the power to bend it and he did it before. for example last year for Artur Aleksanyan. 

 

Don't count too much on this "rule" and there are RUS/BLR wrestlers on the start list already. UWW will certainly let them participate unless IOC intervenes and says something about it. not impossible but a bit unlikely IMO

    • I remember Caroline Golubitsky. She competed with Vezzali for a while but not for long. Rita Konig, whom Vezzali defeated in the final of the Olympic Games in 2000, was more famous, as well as Sabine Bau and Anja Mueller. From what I remember, the Germans competed fiercely with us at some point, but they almost always lost.
    • Shemyakina won a bronze medal in 2014 Worlds and was one of our leader but leave the squad due to pregnancy (she has 2 daughters if I'm not mistaking, so she chose family instead of sport). And speaking of foil we have back in the day Sergiy Golubitskyi, who was Olympic silver medalist and won some medals in other competitions and coached his wife Caroline Golubitskyi - one of the German foil specialists. Even in women's foil we had medal in Women's foil at the European championship - it was Olha Leleiko, our current national coach. So no, we are pretty good fencing country, and depending on generations of our athletes some events are more "profitable" for us and some don't. 
    • Shemyakina that was a very strange story. She unexpectedly won the games but before and after she literally achieved nothing. After that success in 2012 she also completely disappeared. It's only in epee that such strange situations. That's why I've always preferred foil and sabre, because the top was more stable there, although that's changing now. The competition has grown a lot all over the world.
    • Sinner probably won't play in another edition of the Davis Cup. That shouldn't come as a surprise. Next season, Wimbledon and maybe Paris should be the goal.
    • No, our epee was good always, we have Shemyakina, who was Olympic Champion in 2012, Reizlin with bronze in 2020, medalists of Worlds like Kryvytska (who is our finisher today), Svichkar (who is our finisher in men's side) and Stankevych, European champion Kharkova, medals in other conpetitions from men's team epee who were one of the main contenders in Tokyo, but unfortunately failed to take a medal. 
    • Does Ukraine have good relations with Poland, or are they more cold, like, for example, Italy with France?
    • Until recently, Ukrainian fencing was just Kharlan and sabre. Maybe epee sometimes. I don't remember them ever was strong in foil. There was a time when Russia, Romania and Poland were strong in foil at that time when Italy dominated but I don't remember Ukraine anymore.   Hungarian women with Aida Mahomed were too strong for many years.
    • No surprise with Aaron Judge winning AL MVP and Shohei Ohtani winning NL MVP awards.   Ohtani is the second player in history to win MVP in both leagues. Frank Robinson (1961 Reds & 1966 Orioles) was the only one before.
    • Ukraine twice in one day defeated Italy and France, like what the heck?
