This is because they have only qualified one woman and qualifying one relay only gives you 2 relay-only athletes so they won't have enough athletes to form a relay. Same thing with Serbia on the men's side. Thanks, I think it was something similar a few years ago (as I said not recall when), when we also would have women relay, but problems were also with individual quotas.

Because of the funding issues 4-5 medals or more is needed in Paris and I am not sure that is coming. Being in primetime will add the pressure as well (Same for Athletics) - a shame for swimming that the finals in 2016 and 2021 were in the middle of the night UK time. Christ what have you been smoking today?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's up to World Aquatics to decide, but I'm glad the option is in place. In the past, nations were forced to decline a quota because their swim team was too small. maestro and Adriano 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thankfully your "feelings" tend to be horribly wrong, so I think we're OK on this one. Peaty and Wilby are the only ones who are doing poorly, everyone else is either doing just as or better than expected. dullard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s mostly for this smaller nation with 1 or 2 relays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
