Does anyone know if got a travel restriction exception and thus could compete at the Olympics? Seems weird that they are sending a big team if they aren't going to compete at the Olympics?

no, they didn't take part in the last World Champs (nor in the events of the 1st stint of the OQP), so they can't be in Paris (luckily)

That's what I mean, athletes/nations can apply for an exception which included travel bans. North Korea effectively banned their athletes from traveling until the Asian Games so they could argue that they should be given an exception.

 

The IWF may not accept it since the rule was in place in cases where the host nation prevented a traveling nation from entering rather than a self-imposed restriction.

in this case, it's not about the travel ban...it's about the 4 years without a single doping test for the North Korean athletes

 

all the National Federations have been lobbying hard for what basically is a hidden doping ban against  (because it's obvious that the lifters that are destroying record after record, in the past 4 years have been built with God knows what kind of practice)

This compulsory world cup will be served as Chinese internal trials. There is no clear quantitive method for trials but I personally sum up as follows. For men's side, whichever 3 categories winning the golds will go to OG, if winning 4 golds or less than 3 golds then comparing the winning/losing margin. For women's side, 81kg and 81kg+ will be (most probably) selected if winning the golds. For 49kg, 59kg and 71kg whichever winning over North Korea will be selected. If no categories or more than 2 categories winning over North Korea, then comparing the winning/losing margin.

women's -49kg

 

Gold:  Ri Song Gum (total: 221kg WR*)

Silver:  Hou Zhihui** (total: 217kg)

Bronze:  Jiang Huihua (total: 208kg)

 

** Snatch World Record @ 97kg (same lift of  Ri, but the North Korean lifted after the Chinese woman)

 

Group A Full Table

so, this result leaves the door open for the  girls @ 59kg and @ 71kg, should they win gold here in  

 

however, I don't understand why they take  as a comparison, when they already know the Koreans won't be in Paris...I mean, without , the Gold medal is pretty safe in this class, more than in the -59kg and the -71kg, it doesn't matter if they win or not Gold here @Vic Liu

 

 

for what concerns , Giulia Imperio once again bombed out and leaves herself out of the top 10 of the OQR, even if she could still make the Olympics sneaking back in from the window after the top Nations make their choice (especially should  leave the -49kg class out)

 

 

for what concerns the overall OQR, Today's big winner is  Fang Wan Ling, who lifted a total of 192kg and breaks into the top 10 (9th useful place)

 

at the same time,  Katherin Oriana Echandia Zarate improves by 3 kilos her total (now she's @ 193kg, 8th useful place in the OQR) and keeps herself in qualifying position

 

the unlucky woman of the day, instead, is  Rosegie Ramos, not capable of improving her total of 191kg and dropping down to the 11th useful place in the OQR (which in any case might prove more than OK, after all the final allocations)
