Taekwondo Discussion | Qualification to Summer Olympic Games Los Angeles 2028 Road to LA 2028

Is this our first confirmed 2028 qualification pathway confirmed?

 

[World Taekwondo] World Taekwondo Changes Olympic Ranking Points Cycle

 

I think we were already aware that there would be a change to ranking system for LA. It's now confirmed that World Taekwondo are switching to a 2-year ranking cycle. 

 

The first ranking period runs from July'24 - June'26 with the second period running from July'26 to June'28. Ranking points from the first phase will be used to determine entry and seeding for Grand Prix events in the second phase. Only the points acquired from July'26-June'28 will count towards Olympic qualification. 

 

As per previous cycles, the top five athletes in each of the relevant weight categories based on the Olympic rankings published in January'28 will automatically qualify for the LA Olympics. 

 

Another qualification criteria confirmed relates to the Grand Slam Champion Series. In previous qualification pathways, if the top ranked athlete in the Grand Slam merit points was also qualified through the Olympic rankings, the quota was reallocated to the next highest ranked Olympic athlete. For Los Angeles, this quota would be reallocated to the athlete ranked No. 2 in Grand Slam merit points.

 

If this athlete is also within the top-5 in the Olympic rankings, the quota will be given to the next highest ranked athlete in the Olympic rankings.

Idk if that's actually true, but in volleyball there are a sort of established system of qualification to LA, where Top-3 from WCh, continental champions and top-3 from World Rankings will participate at the next Olympics

actually it was published already last year in May. and the new ranking system is already running. 
 

Here You can find a ppt document which explains how qualification to various events works and how you can gain points. 
 

still open is continental qualification, but I guess it’s still the same.

Is there a way on the WT website to see the 'bracket' view for the draws, or do they just have a list of the matches in order?

 

(Edit: I found it in the Results tab as a PDF, but looks like there's no live bracket during the comp.  I guess BWF and WTT have spoiled me being able to see a bracket.) :)

:USA was also 4th in Men's...a 17 year old at that!  Took down the #1 seed from :TUN to make it to the SF.  In the GM match with :USA vs. :KOR , the :KOR athlete looked like he got hurt in the 1st round unfortunately.
