the qualification rankings are based on World Champs + Continental Champs + the 4 best World Cup scores (out of 5 events)...

 

the actual Olympic Tournament seeding will be based on the world ranking after the end of 2020 continental championships, basically when no more events are left before the Games (and there will be also a draw 2 places by 2 places to determine the final tableau)...

Well it's after Worlds champs then.

 

A draw 2 places by places? cared to explain..

 

I thought for team competitions, It would be 1vs8 2vs7 and so on..

1 vs 7 or 8, 2 v 7 or 8, 3 v 5 or 6 ...

no, seed #1 and #2 obviously would go to no.1 and 2 of the WR, but then there will be a draw between 3 and 4 to decide who's going to be seed no.3 and no.4, then 5th and 6th of the WR will be drawn into seed no.5 or 6 and so on...

If Japan claim their host quota, does it mean China will get the individual quota?

no, because JPN can't add a full team quota...they will only add 2 more names to the already qualified Shikine (I don't think they can reject his quota and then add 3 more)...

 

however, they have 8 quota to play with to get as many full teams they can...

Guys, individual qualification is not over yet, still one GP to go.

 

P. S. next men's Sabre World Cup is scheduled in 2 weeks in Padua, but it looks like authorities are cancelling all sports events in the region until 1 March at least  

 

 

yes, you're right...the individual summary is only a provisional standing...

And Russia gifted Germany the qualification in men's foil.

So:

qualified - Japan will surely use their host quotas to have a team here.

 

 

Yes!

Timur Safin (bronze at Rio) will find it hard to get past the Borodachev siblings to make the team.
