Yeah, I wasn't too happy to see that rule. The performance of a nation in one event should not prevent it from qualifying in a different event. 

Today Predomo finished very well and thanks to him Italy has a medal.

absurd rules 🤮

Flag Football This is a new sport. Along with the host nation, two nations will qualify at the 2026 World Championships and three will qualify at the 2028 Olympic Qualifier Series.   The Olympic Qualifier Series will be a 10 team tournament consisting of two nations from each continent based on their performance at their respective 2027 Continental Championships.

Diving For the individual events, only the top 8 at the World Championships will qualify (2024 was top 12). The continental qualifiers now require 3 eligible nations to compete (as with 2024, only the gold medalist is eligible) and the final qualifier will now be two World Cup stops. Athletes will be ranked based on their best score and whether they advanced to the finals/semifinals. Additionally, if a continent is missing and an athlete has achieved the minimum score at the World Cup then that athlete will qualify.   For the synchronized events, only the World Cups will award quotas. 3 at World Cup Stop 1, 3 at World Cup Stop 2 and a final one based on the best score of the two World Cups not yet qualified.

NFL players might struggle with IOC doping rules, though 

no Hoogland and V.D. Berg as 3rd, though    in the same event, keeps improving, taking an unexpecting bronze and cutting the time gap with and   however, Konya confirms as a very, very fast track   also both the M & W team pursuit prelims were very quick, despite the main teams were not at full strenght    

Sitting in a halls of residence right now, I’m jealous, I’m sure my uni would try to charge £200 a week for something like this.

never experienced such pleasure  always gone to schools next to home
