:GRE :(:(:(

All four of our athletes were 2nd or 3rd seeded, and none of them managed to even make the semifinals :facepalm:

 

I know taekwondo often has surprises but still it's very disappointing that we will have no one in Tokyo. 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...

yes this taekwondo tournament is a real failure for the favorites. Will Russia and Belarus participate with these conditions?

You didn't mention :GRE in women's -67 kg, who I think was probably our most likely to qualify :cry:

Qualifying in taekwondo is brutal, especially for Europe and Asia. 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.

    • It’s not just that. It’s part of the whole cutting numbers to raise standards policy. 
    • I'm guessing most of the big teams have been told to watch the numbers.
    • Something that Germany desperately needed, because they're getting destroyed by Norway and France. Sweden is also moving ahead with capable athletes like the Oebergs, Samuelsson, Ponsi and new Swedish improvements like Halvarsson, Heijdenberg, plus it's probable that Andersson comes through next year as well.   With the level that Norwegian men and French women have, I don't really see Germany being ready to challenge next year.    Have a feeling it's gonna be Perrot, Giacomel and a handful of Norwegians battling it out next year.    As for the women, I think it looks like a French year, with Jeanmonnot + Michelon and Richard getting more time to get better, it's tough to see who could be consistent enough to challenge. Although, I would love for the Oeberg sisters to have a season where they're both healthy throughout. It's also uncertain what kind of Vittozzi we're getting, if Grotian has enough time to become a challenger and in what kind of form will Preuss come back to, after her first ever season with no health issues.
    • Really a storming run from Lara Gut, Brignone could do nothing about it.
    • Team England has set a limit of about 50 for Atheltics. Down from the 75-100+ the last few have had, 
    • In the autumn there will be 3x missed World Cups in a row for us and we can dissolve this entire federation, league, and clubs where, for example, no one Italian plays in the first team in Milan
