Have a feeling the two Chinese meets are going to struggle to attract household names.

No no, there is one of the most important ways to qualify in the OG . Not all athletes can make the entry standart

The thing is it makes it be more about having a good enough manager to get you in big meets, instead of simply being good. Not sure about the exact numbers, but for example a high jumper could get more for a 2.24m in a big meet than a 2.31m in a small meet, that's just weird.

I think, thai it's true. Competition score is the one of the most stupid things in athletics. But can we do anything else?
