2028 Team Size Projection – Feb 2026 Update Here’s an update to my 2028 Team Size Projection. Only February events were considered for this update. Sorry for the late update, I was quite busy in my personal life. While I touch upon major events changes may occur due to results in smaller events. Additionally, several sports released their qualification document so there may be cases where I have to update the projection. I will only include sports where there is an update. Here is the link to the updated sheet. Aquatics (Artistic Swimming, Diving, Water Polo) World Cup events were held for artistic swimming and diving. is now projected to qualify in artistic swimming over . Diving saw some changes with gains going to (4) (2) and losses going to (2) . Water polo had the European Championships. No changes to Olympic projections. Athletics (Marathon & Race Walking) The Tokyo Marathon and a gold level race walking tour event in Taicang were held. In the men’s marathon and are now in a qualifying position at the expense of and . On the women’s side; (2) have moved into a qualifying position while are out. In the men’s 20km walk, gained two quotas at the expense of and . For the women’s 20km walk it is who are in position while are out. Badminton The African and Oceania championships took place along with other minor tournaments. The only change relative to last month was in the men’s doubles where overtook for the final spot Baseball/Softball The qualification document was released. While a slight change occurred, no changes to the teams qualified were made. Basketball A set of men’s World Cup qualifiers were held this month. Angola’s loss to Mali is something to consider, but given how close it was I still consider Angola to still be the favourite to qualify. On the other hand, Argentina’s loss to Uruguay is enough to consider a change. After some shuffling around is now on the inside while is out. Cycling (BMX Racing, Road & Track) Major events held this month include various continental championships. In BMX Racing, gained a quota over in the men’s while is in a qualifying position over for the women. In road cycling, on the men’s side; gained one quota over respectively. On the women’s side; gained one quota over Track cycling see changes in the men’s individual sprint/keirin ( gain over ), men’s Madison ( gain over ), men’s omnium ( and gain over and ), women’s team sprint ( gain over ) and women’s individual sprint/keirin ( x2 over and ). Equestrian (Dressage & Jumping) Several World Cup events were held this month. In Dressage; :ARG :IRL :TUR :MDA :NZL gained an individual quota over :VEN :FIN :LTU :ITA :JPN respectively. While in Jumping the team quota saw gains for :MEX :ESP over :COL :POR inversely, Colombia and Portugal will gain an individual quota, replacing the vacated Mexico and Spain. Additionally there are gains for :POL over :GRE Fencing (Foil) The Turin Grand Prix was held this month among other events. No changes in any of the foil events.

No changes on the men’s side while on the women’s side there was some shuffling, but ultimately no one fell off. Argentina did make a case by winning the SVNS 2 tournament while Brazil finished 6th which included a 28-17 win for Argentina. While a good start, I don’t think it’s quite enough to make the swab just yet. Shooting The Asian Rifle/Pistol Championships were held this month. No updates to the qualification projection. Sport Climbing The Oceania Speed World Championships were held this month. No updates to the projection. Squash The Windy City Open among other events were held this month. On the men’s side :GER is now in a qualification position over :QAT . No changes on the women’s side. Surfing The qualification document was released. There is now less emphasis on the World Surf League and the priority for the continental qualifiers have changed. This has caused some changes to the projections.

Table Tennis The qualification document was released along with the Singapore Smash. Relative to my estimations a few changes occurred. Quota changes include :AUT :CAN :SVK :SVK losing men’s quotas. They are replaced by :ALG :CZE :ITA :MDA. On the women’s side, :ARG :CUB :CZE :GUA :GUA :MEX :MEX :TUN are replaced by :ALG :COD :IRI :LUX :POL :RUS :SRB :SUI . -
I saw that was the tie-breaker in group play, but it said only for games played against each other (Canada and PR didn't play Venezuela). Looking at the 2023 WBC, they ranked "lost in quarterfinal" teams by record (but Australia and PR "tied" for 6th with the same record). Then it groups them by placings in their groups (all 3rd place teams together, ranked by final record, all 4th place teams together ranked by final record,etc.). That's what made me hopeful that Canada would place higher than the other two since they won their group. However, they have Venezuela in the same grouping as AUS, PR, and ITA (lost in quaterfinals) even though they won their division. Anyway, just have to hope for a Canada win or a close defensive loss, I guess. And some help elsewhere. -

I believe it's that runs allowed over defensive outs calculation So right now it's > > We'll have to hope Italy's high offense shows up again while being defensive against the United States -

Help me understand the tie-breaker if all of Canada, PR, and Venezuela lose their playoff games. They'd all be 3-2, but would Canada be ranked higher for winning their group? If not, what is the next tie breaker since Canada/PR did not play Venezuela?
