it seems the organizers finalized the list of sports for the 2022 Asian Games in Hangzhou

 

it will be all "core" Olympic sports plus few selected non-Olympic sports, Sepaktakraw, Kabaddi, Cricket, Chess, Roller Skating, Jujitsu, Kurash, Wushu and Squash

 

and per Hangzhou 2022 official website Dragon Boat will be a part of Canoeing competition. but they said nothing about Soft Tennis (which is usually a part of tennis competition) or 3x3 basketball. and beside that it's not clear if Chess is just Chess or will include some weird Chinese Chess competition too.

 

with this, Cricket and Chess are the new sports comparing to 2018 but they dropped Baseball/Softball, Bridge, Bowling, Jet Ski, Paragliding, Pencak Silat, Sambo, Karate and Sport Climbing from the 2018 program.  of course nobody is upset about dropping JetSki, Pencak Silat or Bridge or Paragliding or Sambo, but dropping some old sports like Karate, Bowling and Baseball/Softball is a very bad idea. even Sport Climbing should be in the program.

 

especially Karate which is a popular sport in Asia and we usually have something like 40 nations participating at the Asian Games (OCA has something like 45 members) even though after this Iran Karate federation president claimed he contacted the AKF officials and he was told to not worry, OCA president (Sheikh Ahmad from Kuwait) is a fan of Karate and he will never let the organizers to drop Karate. he will force the Chinese organizers to put back Karate in next OCA meeting. which means this list is not final as far as OCA concerns and small changes can happen.

What are your analysis of the Freestyle draws? :lol:

:d OK, my GR preview wasn't that bad

 

57

we are sending a junior here out of desperation, while you can never underestimate an Iranian wrestler in freestyle but I don't think he stands a chance against Aman in the QF. the best Asian wrestler Higuchi is absent here but Japan is still sending a very good wrestler in Hasegawa who has a tough first round against Liu of China. I think either Aman or JPN will win the gold. in the top half we have a PRK guy and you know if they send someone you have to be worried. but I think MGL is the favorite for the silver medal with KAZ and KGZ next to him.

 

65

former World Champion Amouzad is the biggest name in the draw but he is facing a brutal draw! has to beat UZB, JPN and CHN to face Bajrang in the SF. Amouzad is a great wrestler but he is cutting weight and it will be a big challenge to wrestle fresh wrestlers back to back. (none of these guys wrestled in Belgrade but Amouzad did) I still think Amzouad can make it to the SF relatively easily but I'm not sure how much will be left in him to fight Bajrang. we have two big names in the top half, Tulga MGL and Kudiev of TJK (a very good Russian recruit). I believe these 4 guys will win the medals. hard to predict the order but I like to think Amzouad wins the gold :d

 

74

I don't see Emami losing the gold or at least not going to the final. he is the clear favorite but again he has to face some "fresh" wrestlers. I think KOR/KGZ/CHN and IND will battle for the bronze. in the bottom half we will have the Asian Champion Yessengali. Japan #2 Kinoshita, Bahrain's Asluev and Bekzad of UZB. hard to predict between these guys but the bottom half is certainly harder

 

86

we were always 99% sure about this gold medal because of Yazdani, he has some problems with his shoulder but I still think he can run over everybody in the World not named David Taylor. but he also got a very easy draw. I think MGL or CHN will win the bronze from that half. but top half is really unpredictable. Deepak Punia didn't wrestle in Belgrade to be fresh here, we also have two Russian wrestlers Sharipov (BRN) and Shapiev (UZB) (both finished 5th at the Worlds) but I think Daulatbekov is the favorite for the silver medal. also don't forget Shirai. he is good too

 

97

we have world champion Tazhudinov (BRN, against RUS) in the draw. so he is the favorite and his draw isn't bad at all. he is already in the final and I think CHN wlil take that bronze. our guy Goleij was 10 seconds away from beating the great Sadulaev two weeks ago but he got injured in the process. if he is fit he will make it to the final. but he has to beat Ibragimov first (38 yo but beat several Iranians before) and then MGL and later Yergali of KAZ. I think KAZ or UZB will take the bronze. I really want to see Goleij/Tazhudinov final. while this guy is fantastic but I still think Goleij can tire him down

 

125

we have the current World Champion AH Zare who is the clear favorite for the gold. I think he will face the big Mongolian in the final. CHN is entering a new guy and not Deng, which makes me think Batirmurzaev will take the 2nd bronze. (that guy from CAM is Iranian, he is not that bad, I know CAM is looking for a medal in these Games) in the top half I think the winner of IND/KGZ will take the bronze but there are 2-3 wrestlers in the same level

:MGL getting a medal in the men’s road race seems like a very unexpected result. Too bad this wasn’t the Asian Championships, otherwise they’d have an Olympic quota in their pocket.

It has to be pretty embarrassing to finish last in your event, and then return AAF :facepalm:

In the men’s canoe slalom semifinal, the top eight athletes, limited to one athlete per NOC, advanced to the final. This resulted in the absurd situation where the third place finisher from Japan didn’t advance because his compatriot finished top of the semifinal and a Korean who DNFed made the final as the last of the eight competitors. :(

    • We don’t even have a broadcaster or streaming platform for the games ! IOC couldn’t get any deal for the Indian viewers and we can’t watch this games live ! 
    • 2028 Team Size Projection – Jan 2026 Update   Here’s an update to my 2028 Team Size Projection. While I touch upon major events changes may occur due to results in smaller events. Additionally, several sports released their qualification document so there may be cases where I have to update the projection. I will only include sports where there is an update.   Here is the link to the updated sheet.     Aquatics (Water Polo) The Men’s European Championships saw take gold. The victory moved Serbia up a few places between European nations. With that said, no one fell out of Olympic qualification with the likes of France and Romania still on the outside looking in. remains on the edge.   Athletics (Marathon) Both the Xiamen and Osaka marathons were held this month along with a few other smaller events. While there were a few changes in the rankings, in terms of Olympic projections gains an athlete in the men’s marathon at the expense of   Badminton Major tournaments include the Malaysia Open and India Open. New updates which affected projections include the women’s doubles where overtook . As Polina Buhrova is also scheduled to compete in the singles event, an additional spot has been open. Other changes in the women’s singles was loses one of their quotas. and benefit from those losses.   Indonesia’s loss on the women’s side is offset by gaining a second player in the men’s singles. This puts   on the outside.   Canoeing The qualification document for both Slalom and Sprint were released/updated. No significant changes were found in the Sprint update. Slalom had significant changes relative to 2024 where the initial quotas will be decided by rankings and kayak cross will now have significant quotas being allocated. After adjustment, the following nations lost a quota; Andorra, Chinese Taipei, Ireland, New Zealand, North Macedonia, Slovakia, and Sweden. The following nations gained a quota; Canada, China, France, Italy, South Africa, Spain, and Tunisia.   Cricket The Women’s T20 World Cup Qualifier was held. No changes to the projection.   Equestrian (Dressage & Jumping) Various World Cup events were held. No changes to the projections were made.   Fencing We had two Grand Prix this month, one for epee and the other for sabre. In men’s epee, overtakes . On the women’s side, the United States moved into the top 4 in the team ranking, pushing Estonia down to fifth. This pushed out of Olympic qualification while takes the Americas quota. This caused a downstream effect on the individual side as Ukraine takes an individual quota and Canada relinquishes their quota, additionally, gained a quota while lost one.   In men’s sabre, now takes the Asian team quota pushing down to just an individual quota. No changes were found in women’s sabre.   Handball Four men’s continental championships were held this month. finished top in Africa while a couple of upsets were saw in South America and Asia where and won over and respectively. Despite their wins, they currently haven’t leapfrogged into being projected to qualify. We’ll see how they perform at the World Championships.   Europe saw finish fourth. This was enough to push it into Olympic qualification projection. They pushed out.   Rowing The qualification document was released. There was a change in boat allocation relative to 2024 and the continental qualifier was slightly different than what I projected. Additionally, I assumed coastal rowing would allow 2 men and 2 women to compete in its three events, but the max is 1 man and 1 woman. This has caused significant changes to the projections.   Overall, the United States lost four quotas. Canada, France, Germany, Ireland, Lithuania, New Zealand, Norway, and Spain lost two quotas and Algeria, Argentina, Croatia, Cuba, Egypt, Kazakhstan, Netherlands, Portugal, Tunisia lost one quota.   The following nations have gained two athletes; Japan, Morocco while the following nations gained one athlete; Angola, Austria, Belgium, Chile, Chinese Taipei, Cote d’Ivoire, Denmark, Estonia, Kuwait, Latvia, Mexico, Romania, Philippines, Paraguay, Puerto Rico, South Africa, South Korea, Switzerland, Togo, Uzbekistan, Vanuatu   Rugby Sevens Fixing a couple of mistakes. First on the men, actually has the Asian quota over and in the women as is essentially shutting down the program, I think it is only right to remove them until they decide to compete again. This means is also projected to qualify.   As for new updates, we saw the third tier SVNS compete, which brought no new updates and the Singapore SVNS. I also didn’t add the Dubai or Cape Town SVNS in my calculations. For both, while there was some shuffling no one ultimately fell out.   Shooting The Asian Shotgun Championships were held this month. A few top shooters were missing. The only change to the projection is is set to qualify in women’s trap, pushing out   Squash The Tournament of Champions was held this month. Additionally, the qualification document was released. There was some restriction as to how many nations can send two players and this sport will offer universality quotas.   The following nations lost an athlete quota; Colombia, France, Great Britain, Hong Kong, Malaysia, and New Zealand. The following nations gained an athlete quota; Canada, Pakistan, Spain (x2), Switzerland, Ukraine   Triathlon The qualification document was released. There are a few changes relative to 2024. Projection changes include: Losses to Hong Kong and Slovenia and gains for Austria and China.   Weightlifting The qualification document was released. One change to be made was the reallocation process for host nation quotas. Due to this, El Salvador Iraq, Palau, Sri Lanka, Tuvalu, and Vanuatu lost quotas while Australia, China, Dominican Republic, Iran, and Samoa (x2) gained quotas.   Wrestling The qualification document was released. There were some significant changes to the qualification process including using the world rankings and the final qualifier only consisting of non-qualified nations. The projection changes are as follows; losses to Belarus, Bulgaria, China, Georgia, Germany, Hungary, Japan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Mongolia, Russia, South Korea, Sweden, and Turkey.   Belgium and Lithuania gained 2 quotas while American Samoa, Austria, Estonia, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Latvia, Madagascar, Spain, and Turkmenistan gained 1 quota.
    • Looks like we in the Philippines are in the same situation. No news yet on whether we’ll be able to watch the Games 
    • Cricket is any day in a better position than Baseball, Modern Pentathlon or Rowing 8s globally
    • http://i.imgur.com/gLJZbix.jpg   Honestly football is just on another level. For other sports, an expanded field or creating multiple host cities likely only works with baseball, cricket and maybe basketball, and only in very specific countries.
    • No streaming for the games in India. I contacted IOC they just sent me a list where the games will be shown live.    Last games we had the Olympic channel and YouTube showing the live coverage for regions with no media rights. This time sadly no such schedule.   So much about making the games accessible to all...
    • What revealed those files of Epstein !!!! thousands of scandals , horrible diguisting things mixing politic criminalities , robbery , scam , manipulation...etc    all those celebrities of shht that you love   
    • I wonder if instead of having flexibility around what sport to add there should be one or two team sports per game with an expanded field (of 16 or 32 or w/e) where the host gets to pick which which team sports (if any) has an expanded field.
