The women's team:

No real surprises - Pitman and Healey are world class (if a little inconsistent). No place for Jaspreet Sagoo though which is disappointing given she was part of the gold medal winning team from last year's European Games.

The men's short list:

This is an absolute 'mare of a list - only 3 of the top 6 are on GB Archery's podium squad. James Woodgate and Monty Orton were both in the World Championship team last year (and were GB's highest placed qualifiers) but have failed to make the cut for selection. Think we can say goodbye to team quota for the men unfortunately.

Men's quota always seemed unlikely tbh. Frankly, just getting a male in to be sure of a mixed pair will be a relief.

Final 4 for the international team selection confirmed:

Obviously, Pitman and Healey are world class - I think I am right in saying that they have both been world number 1 within the last couple of years - but Rogers is ranked 560 whilst Havers doesn't even have a world ranking from what I can see. I'm not sure that's a recipe for an Olympic quota but I hope to be proved wrong.

Men's final 4:

Huston is world 49, Tom Hall is 54 with Alex Wise at 89. Despite Conor Hall being the top scorer in this qualifying competition, his world ranking is a lowly 234 - so not exactly the makings of a world beating team. Maybe this will be a case of the collective team being stronger than the sum of the individual members.

Encouraging result for :GBR men as they take silver behind Italy at the Kahraman Bagatir Spring Arrows Tournament in Turkey. Team was Conor Hall, Tom Hall and Alex Wise. 

 

In qualifying, they comfortably outscored the 1932 achieved by the team at last year's world championship. Indeed, if they had scored 1991 in Berlin they would have finished 3rd in qualifying. However, this was a much higher scoring event - France topped qualifying with 2041 - so GB's improvement was broadly in line with what the other teams achieved. 

 

En-route to the final, they took out Uzbekistan in the first round and defeated Egypt in the semi-finals. Probably their most impressive win was in the quarterfinal when they defeated top-seed France. 

 

In a reversal of usual fortunes, the women have had a pretty mediocre tournament. The women's team of Bryony Pitman, Penny Healey and Megan Havers finished n 9th place. GB finished qualifying in 6th place but, unlike most of their competition, GB were unable to outscore their qualifying from Berlin. They then lost their first-round match to Australia.

Noticed there is no women's team for the European qualifiers starting soon. Hoping it's a mistake but does seem strange.

No mistake - GB women cannot compete at the European Continental qualifier because Penny Healey won the individual quota at last year's European Games. 

 

The women's team will be competing for the team quota at the European Championships which take place next week.

Archery European Continental Qualifier:

 

Conor Hall scores 659 to finish qualifying in 7th place. Alex Wise ended up in 8th place with a score of 657. After a bit of a dodgy start, Tom Hall had a better second half, scoring 645 for 21st place (at one point he was down in 44th so this is a pretty good recovery)

 

Alex Wise and Conor Hall are advanced directly to the round of 16. Tom Hall will enter the competition in the round of 24.

    • I think they incorrectly translated Ukrainian word "nahorody" - it is not a full synonym of "medal". Its cocrrect translation is "award". Meanwhile russian tennis playes switched for Potapova ->  Rakhimova ->   
    • Ukrainian diver Lyskun switches allegiance to Russia, loses all medals | Olympics News | Al Jazeera   'loses all medals'   I would assume Al Jazeera could have been a bit clearer and mention this would presumably only be national medals. I mean, it's not like the Ukrainian federation, or any single federation for that matter, has the power to strip her of her world and European championships medals I hope (not for her sake, but because that would be a super weird precedent)

    • Confirmation about the broadcasting rights.   If I'm reading it right, for most of Europe it will now be exclusive to Discovery/Eurosport or whatever brand they use.     For outside Europe, it's on YouTube. For Planet VPN....well, let us know if you find out.   fil-taker-list-25-26-winterberg-1.pdf   Also, should have mentioned above that the Nations Cup races today are just over one leg, whereas there are two runs in each of the World Cup races.

They were in contact and despite of full funding from  the girl decided to become the star of russian propaganda.  As I saw in X: "It took the Russians four years of war to find a relatively well-known sports personality to carry out such a propaganda operation."
