Really proud of this Canadian team, I don’t think they could have done much more.

 

First time since 2008 that Canada will send a men’s team, and first time since 2004 that :CAN will send a full team.

And they are already qualified for the team final. :thumbup:

After Sub-Division 5, there's no change in the top 3 - :JPN:USA & :GBR

 

:CAN best result from the teams competing this morning - taking 4th place with score of 249.26. That's about 7 points higher than their 2022 score and 8 points higher than their 2022 Commonwealth Games score. This books their place in the team final and gives them a team quota for Paris.

 

:SUI started well but had relatively poor pommel and rings scores. They are currently in 6th place with score of 248.192. That's enough to take them to the Olympics and will probably be enough to get the to the team final. 

 

:COL and :EGY acquitted themselves well but ultimately couldn't keep up with the pace of the other teams.

:ITA:KOR:FRA will qualify from the last subdivision and :NED will end on the 13th place. Big disappointment for them, but there was nothing more in it. That means only 1 Dutch male gymnast (Casimir Schmidt) will make it to Paris. 

you see France qualified? serious ? you have hope! I don't believe it at all

As we move into the final subdivision, :BRA are currently in the hot seat from Olympic quota perspective so their score of 245.295 becomes the benchmark to secure the 9th quota.

 

Competing in SD6 are :ITA :KOR :FRA and :HUN

 

Personally, I would be very surprised if :ITA don't qualify with room to spare - in fact would be surprised if they failed to make the team final. Assuming they do then the new benchmark would become :UKR on 245.461. 

 

:KOR scored 244.093 points in qualifying in 2022 so it could go either way for them but they should be able to do it.

 

I am rooting for :FRA to qualify - if only because I have been working on assumption that they are already qualified as host :d. To do that they are going to need a score north of 246.028. That is 6 points higher than they scored in 2022 World Champs but only 3 points higher than they scored at this year's Europeans so it is definitely achievable. 

 

If that was the case, then I think that :KAZ Milad Karimi, :ISR Artem Dolgopyat and :UKR Illia Kovtun would currently qualify as the individual all around athletes under Criteria 3 of qualification pathway.

Will we know the individual qualifiers (olympic games) and the approved qualifiers today?

3 individual all-around quotas should be known today - from the best teams that didn't secure team quota. 

 

On checking - the quotas under criteria 4 will also be known today - 8 men and 14 women for individual all around based on their qualifying scores.

    • North American rugby quotas ( and qualified automatically)    M: and W: and  
    • 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.
