We have 5 athletes ranked in the top 20 in the Olympic rankings, so the fact that none of them were able to qualify is definitely a failure in my opinion. I was definitely hoping we could qualify 1 or 2... Edited March 10 by Makedonas copravolley and Josh 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have people in non-Olympic weights moving around (more common in taekwondo) and the sport loves upsets so we are bound to see many great athletes staying home. Especially in a 16-person field.
