However, for those nations competing in the Zone Group round-robin format for at least three years of the four-year cycle the minimum nomination requirement is two occasions, as it is for players who have represented their nation 20 or more times. All players must be nominated at least once in 2015/16.

Really hope that Rybáriková will do it and increase our womens team to 3 athletes, also glad to see "Kližo" back in the ranking just pitty that this time most likely we will not have a mens double..

 

 

[Wanderer 1,738]

Well, drama and matches will be shorter in Rio. There will be played tie-break in every set (if needed) so the matches like Federer-Del Potro in London will be past

Men's singles final remains best of five match. Thirdset in mixed doubles will be played as match tie break.
