Favourites for each of the women’s weightclasses? I know Canada has some quality names, but not sure how likely it is for us to qualify with the draw. 

Linda Morais is good but having a bad draw in 68kg with Hristova and Feng in same half

Women's Wrestling 

 

50kg   is the favourite in top half.  can challenge but as seen at Asian OQ she gets tired towards end. Stadnik also lost in dying seconds at EOQ. could be a dark horse.

 

Bottom half Genesis is favourite but Blayvas is good too.

 

I go with 

 

53: Very difficult to call. Orsus looked out of form in EOQ so I go with . Bottom half is complicated but I pickle Annika Wendle  and Prevolarki.

 

57: Top half is hard 

 should go through with  as one to look out. Bottom half easy one for .

 

62. Very difficult top half

Incze is the best wrestler in the field and should go through. are also in the same half but I predict  to go through (a little bias).  should go through in bottom half with  wrestler with some chance though weight cut will be her issue.

 

68 Two good wrestlers Hristova and Zhou  are in same half at bottom both should go.Nisha is the best in the top half with  able to challenge her.

 

76 Syzdykova and  Axente are good in the former and I expect both to qualify.  takes on  in 1st match winner of this will win quota probably and the other has chance through Repechage I prefer the former to win quota directly.

Wait so if I’ve got this right, if  Prevolarki wins her semifinal match, then  Godinez will have a second chance through repechage? 

[MHSN 3,785]

one of my problems with women's wrestling is some of them keep changing their name  sometimes even 2-3 times during their careers

 

why Alina Hrushina is competing under her old name Akobiia ? is she divorced Mr Hrushyn already or just an administration mistake ? (that's still Hrushyna on back of her singlet)

Yes and if she can beat her it's an easy half. Godinez looked good

 is out. Alina Hrushina-Akobiia won by fall

[Fly_like_a_don 1,147]

Jong In Sun loses that's some result 

 

AG: She almost beat WC Sakurai losing 6-7 in final

 

AOQ: Lead 8-0 before losing by fall

 

WOQ: Not in best form, suffered an injury, lost.

The Asian Qualifiers being held less than 20 days ago can take a toll. It helps other continent wrestlers.
