I guess they don't wanna really increase number of competitors in each event. 

Why not? Quota system is more for control a total number of athletes starting at the OG, not number of athletes in each competition

Wow. Gold for Herzog.  Never expected this. So we won the medal in the event where it was least likely. 

Really crazy result for a 19 year old girl who is still going to school. Germany has a realistic shot at medalling in all events except men's K1 in Tokyo (if Anton qualifies).

No double quota in men's, right?

Germany has a realistic chance to medal in K1 as well. Aigner missed the final because he touched one gate, otherwise he would have only have been 0,88 seconds behind in the semis. It's an extremely close Competition.

Definitely not. The competition is male events is so high that nobody could handle competing in both events at a top level.

Herzog must be doping, how can 19 year old win a medal!?

Sadly, that doesn't prevent ICF from hiding all information like they usually do. For example, I think we still don't know which sprint quota Spain declined (they had to decline one).

They’ve been pretty good about sharing quota updates with the media. I’ll share anything I get

To be honest if i would be canadian i would be more worried about some no name 19 year old girl (MacNeil) dropping a crazy amount of time to win gold in a sport that is notorious for doping or guys (Dunfee, De Grasse) winning medals in events that have half a dozen doping cases every year than about a girl winning a medal in a sport that has like one doping case every decade ... but maybe that is just the german school system speaking out of me (i am not sure how familiar canadian people are with the concept of probability, but most educated people would agree that someone doing well in a sport with a huge doping tradition is more likely to be doped than someone who is doing well in a sport with almost no doping tradition)?
