Does the qualification final ranking define the bracket of the Olympic tournament ?

The world ranking will count, but they will be very similar (if not the same)

the world ranking after the next Continental Championships will be used to determine the team events' brackets of the OGs...

 

the individual events also will be drawn according to that, but there will be a draw 2 places by 2 (no.1 at the top, no.2 at the bottom, no.3 and 4 drawn one at the top and one at the bottom and so on for 5 & 6, 7 & 8...)

France are locked in first place, no matter what happens later today...

 

Switzerland keep their second place and Italy improve by 1 position in the ranking, climbing up to the 3rd provisional rank...

 

Ukraine, despite a down day, are still 4th...and they even increase their margin over 5th place, as South Korea had a real nightmare of a day and scored only 8 points (17th place today), falling down to 9th in the OQR...

 

the 5th place now is up for grabs, with China and Hungary fighting for it, depending on the outcome of today's finals (Hungary are definitely today's gran winners, reaching the gold medal match and closing down on the top 4 positions of the OQR)...

 

Russia could still be either 6th or 7th at the end of the day...but it looks that they are fading in the last exits and they are likely going to lose also their virtual qualifying spot in the European Continental race...

 

Japan are 8th and lost some points to China for the Asian Continental spot, Korea, as written above, now are down to 9th and it seems that they have almost definitively compromised their chances to earn a team spot at the next Olympic Games...

 

USA and Egypt today weren't that impressive, but with their average placing still managed to lock their position within the top 16 of the OQR, therefore they are closer to the qualification to the Olympics through their respective Continental spot...

 

updated at the end of today's tournament...

Just when I thought that our chances are close to dead in men's epee. What a huge step for Tokyo! We might actually have a chance to have 4 teams in Tokyo, which would be more than surprising after how the WCh went.
