(B-Boy Victor is ineligible for a quota, as he already qualified through the Breaking World Championships) Not only Victor, but any athlete from USA is ineligible at men's side. There's a rule that every country only can get its second quota through OQS. Olympian1010 and Josh 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olympian1010 7,522 Posted October 3, 2023 #655 Share Posted October 3, 2023 Pretty significant delegation increase for shrinking by a few, which I feel is more common amongst the “smaller” NOCs this cycle. “Sport has the power to change the world.
