Badminton at the Summer Olympic Games Paris 2024


Recommended Posts

What a mistake by BWF in MS. Seed 4 is in a group of 3 and has a bye in Rd of 16, while Seed 2 is in group of 4 with bye in Rd of 16 and Seed 3 is in group of 4 with no bye in Rd of 16. Seed 4 getting better advantage than Seed 2 is ridiculous. There was a better way of doing it. Seeds 2/3 should have been in group of 4 with byes  in Rd of 16. Top seed should have been in group of 3 with bye while 4th seed should have been in group of 3 without a bye.

The whole format in singles with 13 groups is just really weird in general.

Add just one more quota, you can have 14 groups of three with byes for seeds 1 and 2. Much more intuitive.

Now that the draw has been revealed, how soon might we expect them to reveal which matches are allocated to each session?

They are still busy with the MD draw :p

The thing is BWF wants to have a group stage (unlike other racket sports) and they can't fix the number of groups in because of the variable number of players in singles.

 

What they can fix is the grouping conditions such as giving group of fours to lowest seeded players or making the bye positions flexible.

    • Actually, it seems Wicklow Irish Pub is an actual small chain in the city of Queretaro in  
    • But it seems to us that Norway wasn't as strong in Lillehammer 1994 as it was later? And not just in women's events. Generally, until 2000, Norway was much weaker in women's biathlon and women`s cross-country skiing. I remember in the 1990s, Italy's biggest rivals, Belmondo and di Centa, were Russia, when Norway somewhere further back and only in the classic style. Bente Martinsen- Skari, this is their first really strong girl in cross country, just about 2000, just like Liv Grete Skielbreid- Pioree in women`s biathlon at similar times.   Do you think, that is there any hope that thanks to the popularity of Haaland and football in general in Norway in recent years, winter sports such as biathlon or cross-country skiing will lose a little bit, becouse that?

    • This suggestion  @Dnl  made some months ago has also been implemented.   In each club, I have added a "Milano Cortina 2026 Qualification Tracker" record which takes the content from the Qualification by Nation tracker of that NOC.   People who see it can not edit the content, but it will be automatically updated once @Matej will update the record, and if you notice any mistake feel free to report it to Matej or in the record itself.   Club's admins can now edit the name of the section into their own language or change the spelling, I have used "Milano Cortina 2026 Qualification Tracker" for all the clubs. To do so, go inside the section, then click on "Manage Club"-"Edit this database Record" and change the name of the section:     By the way, if you are not a club's admin but you would like to edit things inside the club just let me know and I will give you the rights to do so. There can be more "admins" inside the club with the rights to edit and organize the sections, and that's not a role that require time or commitment.   Let's try to make all the clubs active during MiCo and when the LA28 qualifications will start!
