It looks like the page was corrected. Previuos version gave us only 1 quota for men singles.

Excuse me, how will be count points for OWG test event in OWG Qualification List? Is it will be like rules for any other WC stages or something special?

I don't think we will know until they publish something, so far nothing. We also don't know if all the russian (or AIN) athletes can qualify, or just one per event like in other sports. Hopefully they will tell us soon.

According to the qualification document, it's the same point system as the World Cup.

See post #30 above, there is a link to the rules.

Yeah I saw this document but I can't find answer on that. That document only show what starts are counting but there are no annexs with points

So if it is correct, than according to the rules, right now AIN have 2 quotas in the singles, because if I understand system correct, 7 countries with best athletes second ranks in OWGQL can entry 2 quotas.

 

So, in women's singles 7 best countries with 7 second ranks are Germany, Austria, Italy, Latvia, United States, Canada and then AIN in 7th place.

 

In men's singles 7 best countries are Austria, Latvia, Germany, Italy, Ukraine, United States and again AIN is seventh

For example they gave China two quotas in Women's singles. How?  Even best athlete from China have rank lower than second AIN's athlete

So you believe that AIN is an NOC, not individuals competing? You could be right, the FIL has published no communication or rules on how they are handling them. We will have to wait until they publish an Olympic qualifying standing to know for sure I suppose.

Yes because there are no special rules about AIN and FIL allowed to compete not only in qualification starts, they are allowed to compete in any FIL starts and moreover with 3 entries, not one. I think it's like in tennis - all rights and obligitations as NOC but without flag

The comparison to tennis is a good point.
