Here's an interesting fact about wild card athletes in taekwondo. All four of them combined haven't achieved a single win in the respective continental qualification tournaments.

Taekwondo wildcard for Honduras seems confusing to me. There are way more countries that have smaller teams and has athletes who won even a single match in qualification period.

They don't take team sports into account when deciding if a country is eligible for tripartite spots. If they did Honduras wouldn't be eligible for them since they qualified in Football the last three Olympics.

IMO wildcards in sports outside athletics and swimming should be given to the best eligible countries.

 

IMO Taekwondo shouldn't give wild cards at all given it only has 16 people per category. Diving doesn't give any and they have more quota.

Diving is very specialized. You don't see athletes from.smaller countries competing. Taekwondo on the other hand is a sport a lot of these countries can be competetive in (Afgahnistan, Gabon, Mali etc)

    • I still don't know how we lost the match against Poland Can't wait to see the semifinals These matches seems very balanced
    • POL rather won’t qualify for a World Cup.   And we surely won’t qualify in a first stage.    So j just want to see interesting matches and my dream group would be:            
    • With the IWF cracking down on doping, North Korea was already the second best nation before Covid. The three-year isolation does make things suspicious.   Considering the IWF is now testing them every time they compete (given their results), they are probably clean now. The IWF is on such a short leash that a scandal like this may kill the federation so I imagine they are keeping a watchful eye on them.
    • and  are the men's handball qualifiers from North America. Guess who finished fourth? 
    • I was wondering who gave  team that push? ..it was you at the end  ... Karlos is the man (hopefully) to break this domination.   but if we did a poll here: Do you think  weightlifters are clean from doping or not ? ..what would be your thoughts ...I don't want to criticise any athletes or countries but the records are very suspicious
