I see a Refugee athlete in this category, so perhaps the mentioned quota will not be reallocated at all and we will have 16 wrestlers as in every other class ... who knows, maybe it was the "Bachplan" from the beginning :p

But in the end UWW will do what it feels it's right and we have no idea what it will be.

 

Actually we do, because the exact same thing happened in 2016 and 2020

 

they did the other way in 2016 which made a mess. giving this quota to guy A and than took A's quota and give it to B ... 

 

but since 2020 they changed it a little bit , add few more words to the qualification document "not yet qualified" to make things clear. 2024 will be exactly like 2020. 

 

I have some doubts though, but that's in other weights, 74kg FS is pretty clear (if Russia is not able to send someone else)

What weights? Should we add more alternatives to the table?

 

I do not think russians will be allowed to send substitutes. On the contrary, I expect some of the names on the current list of eligble wrestlers to be scratched.

 

According to their recent statements IOC started sending invitations directly to the athletes yesterday. Taekwondo confirmed that the decision is final. Cycling said that they had sent substitutes for confirmed riders and they were approved alltogether.

 

Mamiashvili declared that they will decide to take part in the Games on the 20th of June.

Why would she be excluded?

 

I don't believe there is any mechanism for the IOC to deny participation of an athlete with a :RUS or :BLR passport that is competing for another country (short of denying the change of sporting citizenship, obv)

She still have Russian citizenship, trains in Russia, in May she posted on instagram photo with Russian ministry of sport and as we all known corrupted judges unfairly give her the quota by lowering points to her main opponent.

Is Medvedev allowed to participate in Tennis? I saw 3 others that were not but his name is not on that list

Short answer )) : no decision by the IOC tennis players

 

According to russian sources, they sent request to ITF about all their players in TOP-100 and all of them are OK for ITF (it means nothing as we could see in wrestling and taekwondo).

 

Now they are working on their final entry. Medvedev is to be included according to the officials and he has intention to play.

 

That final entry will be sent to the IOC by ITF. And the IOC will give final decision.

 

That 3 others withdraw themselves. It is notable that withdraws activelt started after the decisions of wrestling and taeknowno. Looks like russians are trying to avoid of losing quotas - so they will keep in the list players with "clean records".

 

Anyway, ITF has to get entries from russia finalize general quota distribution to proceed.

I get that, but AFAIK the rules around having to maintain neutrality only applies for athletes that want neutral status, not for Russian citizens who also have other citizenships and who are competing for those countries. Maybe I'm wrong but I haven't seen anything indicating that.

TASS got a quote from the IOC press-officer: 

"The review process for wrestling, weightlifting and taekwondo is closed, as well as for trampolining and road cycling."

 

So no more AINs will get invitation in these sports. It means that reallocation will definitely happen.

Yes. We have some provisional calculations in the second post of this topic.

But they are not final even for these sports:

 

Belarussian NOC announced that it will decide whether to send those athletes invited by the IOC to the Games or not.

They mentioned that according to their position only the athlete who won license must go to the games. Thus quota in M74 freestyle can become free.

 

By the wat russians wrestlers have a meeting on the 19th of June to decide to go or not to go. And they mentioned that dealine in the 20th of June.

So we have to wait several days to find out if mor free quotas will be available.

    • Fewer people do do this sport compared to the 90s, less money is spent on it, etc. In the case of women, at some point this sport was almost abandoned because of the belief that it was impossible to beat Scandinavia ( the times of Norwegian domination with Bjoergen and Johaug at the forefront). Only in the last 2 years has Markus Cramer been hired, who is gradually rebuilding the men's and women's teams. Suffice it to say that the last medalist of the World Championships for Italy in the women's was Arianna Follis in 2011... I will also remind you that in 2022 Pellegrino and de Fabiani trained with the Russian team, because the rest of the Italian team was in such poor shape that they couldn`t train together 
    • Well that is a totally different question  I too have wondered what happened to Italian cross-country and how there is no one coming for so many years. But it shouldn't take away from the sports where progress has been made. 
    • Where to Watch guide.  Discovery plus in most of Europe       https://www.ucitrackchampionsleague.com/watch-the-races
    • Appetite grows with eating. Especially since it's not like we develop in every winter sport... For example, 20 years ago we were a powerhouse in cross-country skiing and now we have only 1 Pellegrino (34 age) and a few talented youngsters. And let's remember that our performance in Turin was objectively weak for us: only 11 medals in total. Now, when I hear that we will to win 2O+, some discipline must definitely add medals and also compensate for the losses in cross-country skiing, for example.
    • The problem is that this mixed team has never played together since then. There was talk of personal obstacles. I don't know how it`s now.
    • Well that explains why she is wearing more clothes with every passing day.   Nevertheless that team is still one of the best in the world and is a vast improvement on what Italy was doing 10-20 years ago. 
    • Any idea where a full schedule can be found yet? I remember last seasons the website was always godawful in terms of providing that basic kind of information..
    • Constantinis team have made huge improvements since 2022 even if they are not best yet. And Constantini never was world leading in mixed doubles before Beijing olympic either so it is not like she really have lost anything since 2022 either, except not being able to repeat that success.
    • She had health problems yesterday. Nevertheless, after the gold in mixed doubles with Mosaner in 2022, I counted a bit more on her development. I still think that the biggest chance for us in 2026 will be the mixed team, rather than our teams.
    • I don't know who Italy should field for the doubles? Sinner has the greatest individual strength but he probably doesn't train with anyone on the team. Last year Sinner played 2 doubles with Sonego in the Davis Cup (two wins) but this year Sonego isn`t in the squad. On the other hand the Bolelli-Vavassori doubles are well-coordinated, as is the Argentine one, but individually these players don't even mean as much as Sinner's 1 hand. For me the Sinner/Berettini option is possible but the question is: did they train together on last day?
