Rowing Qualification for Summer Olympic Games 2016


Recommended Posts

"Brazil! Brazil! Brazil! Cuba! Chile! Chile! Chile! Chile! Brazil! Brazil! Brazil! Cuba! Cuba!" :d

 

Brazil, Mexico and Cuba qualify in men's doubles. Brazil and Mexico will already have to choose. Venezuela/Ecuador and Venezuela/Paraguay are looking for reallocations. Venezuela is guaranteed to receive one of them, whatever happens. Also one of Ecuador/Paraguay will qualify, but not both.

Brazil, Cuba and Chile in women's doubles, but all of them will have to choose. El Salvador/Argentina/Uruguay in doubles and Argentina/Paraguay/Peru in singles have a chance for reallocation (ARG can't get both, of course, but they are the only one of these that is guaranteed a quota).

I think that all will choose LW2x. Probably no chance for El Salvador.

That would be so sad. :cry: Perhaps Escobar was too tired in this race after competing in single sculls too. What a stupid decision to compete in both events.

Assuming nations pick the higher ranked boat it looks like all three women's single sculls boats will be reallocated (poor El Salvador). For the men's things get complicated, with this assumption Brazil will pick their lightweight double sculls and the single sculls spot will go to Venezuela while Mexico will take its single sculls spot thus giving the lightweight double sculls spot to Chile. Chile however, finished fourth in both the single and lightweight double sculls boats.

 

Should Paraguay somehow fail to get one of the reallocation spots they will be the very heavy favourite to one of the tripartite spots. Should Paraguay qualify normally the tripartite spot will become more open with Honduras becoming the favourite in this region (Bolivia, Nicaragua and St. Vincent and the Grenadines are the only other eligible boats which competed here).

    • This is going to have an effect on very likely 0 athletes, possibly 1 or 2 we don't really know about yet. It's really mostly the cheapest possible way for them to make a sort of political statement, without having any significant backlash since it won't really affect anyone at the top level of international sports.   Edit: worded a bit wrong, I was thrown off by everywhere 'trans women' being mentioned as the target of this. Of course there is also the somewhat larger category of DSD and the likes, which will certainly affect a few athletes - unfortunately they are often thrown under the bus or mentioned as 'not really women anyway' or something like that, despite, you know, being.
    • Mary Rand has died aged 86. The first British woman to win a Gold in track and field at the 1964 Tokyo Games (where she also took home a further two medals in the Women’s 4x100m relay and Pentathlon).
    • Athing Mu competed in the USA trials in 2024 and 2025 post the 2023 rule changes. She also won Gold in 2022 and Bronze in 2023.    Jelimo the jury is out. She doesn’t look male like the other two do.   
    • People focus on trans people because it's easier to pinpoint the affected athletes. Meanwhile it's the athletes with (suspected) DSDs that will have tougher time to convince the authorities and the public opinion that they belong to women's sports.
    • badminton queen Carolina Marin announced that she can't take part into the home Europeans in the upcoming weeks because of her injured knee and calls it a career 😭  
    • yes, there are (or there was, at least) don't forget that the women's 800m had world and olympic champions like Semenya, Jelimo and Nyonsaba...basically, it was 10 years of DSD winners only the same Athing Mu was suspected to be DSD (never confirmed, but somehow she totally disappeared after Tokyo) then, there were the 2 girls from Namibia (1 won a medal over 200m in Tokyo) in Italy we have the living scandal Valentina Petrillo (a paralympian!!!), who's actually a real man not to mention the weightlifter from who took part into the Tokyo Games so, it's a real problem all around the globe, not just a US crusade against a few woke idiots  
    • First big meet ofthe Outdoor Tour is the Maury Plant from Melbourne tomorrow morning.  Good few people from Poland last weekend have made the long plane trip to Oz.   https://worldathletics.org/competitions/world-athletics-continental-tour/news/world-olympic-stars-maurie-plant-melbourne
