this competition will decide the selection for the olympics in the team, in men  Reuveney need 8th place to overcome yoav omer for the place in the team 

 

in women the race between Kantor Tibi and Spichakov is interesting, but overall what is heppening is that Spichakov needs to finish 2 places above the other 2, if not the one ahead from Tibi and Kantor will be selected, it is also interesting becose all of the team but  Spichakov are training in as a team under shahar tzuberi (olympic bronze medalist from 2008)

we have never had close to this size and quality of a team in any sport in the country (not to mention all of the team is in the top 16 which is crazy), we have a whatsapp group for following olympic sports and usually when there is judo we only talk judo, today we allmost ignored the judo to do simulations for who will be in the olympics

Quotas aside, Mariana Aguilar from Mexico finished top 10 for the second year in a row 😃

 

I hope she can also be in the medal race at the Olympics.

By the looks of it she could get to qtr finals even semi final at the Olympics in my opinion

We still don't have any sailors qualified for Paris which is crazy considering we had 8 in Tokyo, 7 in Rio, 11 in London, 12 in Beijing, 18 in Athens (host), 11 in Sydney, 14 in Atlanta, 9 in Barcelona, 8 in Seoul, 7 in Los Angeles...

 

We will definitely have the lowest amount of sailors on our Olympic team in many decades, but Tsortanidis coming so close here (and also a decent showing from Kokkalanis) gives me hope that we can still qualify a few sailors for Paris.

 

Of course all the category changes since Tokyo did not help us. We were in 6 events in Tokyo and the only one which stayed the same was women's laser radial, and our athlete there is now competing for Portugal...
