In the men's tournament the loser of :BRA vs :CHI will get :ARG in semifinals which already will be a deciding match since the bronze medalist won't even have the chance to participate in the Olympic qualification tournaments.

 

For me :ARG is slightly ahead for men's quota and :BRA is stronger on the women's side.

@intoronto do you have a link to the canoe slalom quotas?

Nothing yet. I do know the quotas are finalized and 11 countries got quotas. panamsports needs to finalize before a list can be provided.

Equestrian quotas are available here... For some reason jumping has not been fully updated yet.

Panamsports is to blame. They are super slow in confirming quotas. This has effected golf, canoeing among other sports

In fairness, the qualification process was quite chaotic with all postponements, cancellations, and events program changes. PanamSports probably has a smaller staff than the IOC for this kind of stuff. Still, you’d expect them to be a bit more on top of quota confirmations.

3,000m Steeple, 5,000m, 10,000m lost one quota each. Marathon and race walk were hit harder, losing three quotas each. The quotas seem to have gone solely to the mixed 4x400m, so I bet that will be a popular change :zip:

 

Honestly, we’re going a point where field sizes are comically small in some sports at the Pan American Games.

All these changes to the qualification systems seem really unfair to events. Qualification events being cancelled, quota distributions being changed in the middle of the qualification process, etc. It leaves a sour taste in my mouth looking ahead the Games, especially since many events will act as Olympic qualifiers (or have a sizable impact on qualification prospects).

This will be the off season for many so I don't anticipate huge interest.
