Vektor 3,196 Posted July 27, 2023 #201 Share Posted July 27, 2023 This situation with Greece should inspire the people in charge to make new qualification rules for fencing. It makes no sense whatsoever that we won't have one of the top fencers in the world in Paris just because Greece doesn't have a good enough third fencer. It's cruel, this isn't judo or wrestling where every NOC only gets one place. Makedonas, maestro, De_Gambassi and 1 other 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vektor 3,196 Posted July 27, 2023 #202 Share Posted July 27, 2023 (edited) The draw for tomorrow is out, this is how the potential Round of 16 looks like... Men's epee v || v v || v v || v v || v Women's foil v || v v || v v || v v || v Men's epee is a clusterfuck, I don't want to say anything about it until the first few rounds go down. In women's foil the Germany-Spain and Poland-Hungary matches will be extremely important for the European quota. Egypt will have to beat Colombia in men's epee to secure their quota.

WCh placements: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. Which would result in this Olympic ranking after the Worlds + Continentals + 1 World Cup 1. 256 pts - World 1 2. 220 pts - World 2 3. 156 pts - World 3 4. 144 pts - World 4 --- 5. 140 pts - Europe 6. 135 pts - America 7. 124 pts 8. 120 pts 9. 120 pts - Asia 10. 118 pts 11. 115 pts 12. 108 pts - Africa 13. 101 pts 14. 100 pts 15. 96 pts 16. 68 pts 17. 68 pts Obviously it's never this predictable and @phelps might disagree on if this would be the most predictable outcome tomorrow anyway. But you can get an idea where this is going before the last 4 World Cup event. The 9-16th placement matches are done in women's epee, so I am updating these. WCh placements: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. Which would result in this Olympic ranking after the Worlds + Continentals + 1 World Cup 1. 256 pts - World 1 2. 220 pts - World 2 3. 156 pts - World 3 4. 144 pts - World 4 --- 5. 140 pts - Europe 6. 135 pts - America 7. 124 pts 8. 122 pts 9. 118 pts 10. 114 pts - Asia 11. 113 pts 12. 108 pts - Africa 13. 105 pts 14. 100 pts 15. 98 pts 16. 68 pts 17. 68 pts maestro 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vektor 3,196 Posted July 27, 2023 #209 Share Posted July 27, 2023 without a single individual medal at the Worlds for the first time since 2005. Their implosion is strange. It's as if Japan kinda took their place. Styrka and maestro 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
