Someone on a Dutch forum has made a list of current combined rankings for specific possible mixed double teams (the goal being of course to see whether or not Rojer/Bertens could be in). The question and the part where Totallympics comes in: does anyone know whether or not these nations have extra standards for selecting their players? Also, have some of these players already said they're not going to play mixed doubles?

 

1. Spain
Nadal - Muguruza (6)
More options possible, with Suarez Navarro being the only other possibility on the women's side.

2. Switzerland
Federer - Hingis (4)
More options when throwing Wawrinka and Bencic in the mix.

3. Great-Britain
A. Murray - Konta (18)
J. Murray - Konta (18)
Only possible with Konta on the women's side.

4. Serbia
Djokovic - Jankovic/Ivanovic (25 or 26)
Only possible with Djokovic on the men's side.

5. Czech Republic
Berdych - Kvitova/Pliskova/Safarova/Hradecka/Hlavackova
Only possible with Berdych on the men's side.

6. France
A ton of options: Gasquest/Tsonga/Monfils/Simon/Mahut/Herbert - Garcia/Mladenovic

7. USA
Several options: Bryan/Bryan/Socks- Williams/Williams/Keys/Stephens/Mattek-Sands/Atawo/Spears/Vandewege

8. Australia
Peers - Stosur (26)
Stosur is needed.

9. Germany
Kohlschreiber - Kerber (30)
Only option

10. Romania
Tecau - Halep (11)
Mergea - Halep (16)
Tecau - Begu (34)
Tecau - Niculescu (31)

11. India

Only option

12. Poland
Matkowski - A Radwanska (24)
Kubot - A Radwanska (25)
Only possible with A Radwanska.

France:

 

Tsonga allready annouced he is not going to play the mixed double. Mladenovic announced she will play with Herbert (they playd together at RG), and Mahut more or less said he was going to pair with Garcia :)

I guess either Melo or Soares will pair up with Pereira. Host nation has one secured place, as far as I know.

I think you're right, if we have a place Pereira will play with Melo or Soares (probably Soares, who has a good record in Mixed Doubles).

 

Brazilian tennis confederation has entered a total of 7 athletes for the Olympics Games. Except for Melo/Soares in Doubles, and Bellucci/Pereira in Singles, others will depend on invites and/or withdrawals. They are (and possible events):

 

Thomaz Belluci: Men's Singles/Doubles (with Sá)
Bruno Soares: Men's Doubles and Mixed Doubles* (with Pereira)
Marcelo Melo: Men's Doubles and Mixed Doubles* (with Pereira)
Teliana Pereira: Women's Singles/Doubles (with Gonçalves) and Mixed Doubles* (with Melo or Soares)

 

Not yet guaranteed:

Rogério Dutra Silva: Men's Singles
Paula Gonçalves: Women's Doubles
André Sá: Men's Doubles

We won't get to know mixed doubles EL before the Olympics tournament begin, as only those who are on the site already will be eligible to play mixed.

    • Italy will boycott the Azeri stage for protest against the international federation.
    • Likely for Tannheimer, quite unlikely for Galmace Paulin. She's far from being assured to even start in the WC before turning 20. Basically she'd have to get a spot this season, which could actually happen if she takes the extra-ticket at the JWCH. Anyway I don't see her making her way to gold in Oslo. Tänglander has a few seasons to do it, we'll see.       Quite surprisingly so, indeed. Barring her horrendous finish Richard would have made it 2 in one go. We should have some more names in the list in 2025.
    • There are some of Slovakia's finest young squads at the World Juniors in recent years
    • Alpine skiing also we have a lot of problems: the men's team is very weak and has been winning a few podiums a season for several years and the our best skier- Dominik Paris is 35. We still have a strong women's team but 3 of the 4 leaders are over 30 (Goggia, Brignone, Curtoni) and Bassino is 28. Another 2 years and we will have the same problem as the men's. There is basically no cross-country skiing without Pellegrino for many years, biathlon is based on 2 individuals with one of them has a 35 years. Vittozzi's injury was enough and we haven`t a single podium this season after 3 stages of the World Cup. As for 1 year to the home games the situation isn`t optimistic.
    • Hail to the Reds... Commanders. First time since 1991 Washington QB has thrown 5 TD passes in a game (which isn't all that improbable in the modern game alas Dan Snyder...)    
    • Italy is much better in alpine skiing, in The end all Nations have a Limited Talent Pool. Norway is far better than Sweden/Finland in Cross-Country skiing, alpine skiing and Biathlon, but Sweden/Finland are far better in ice Hockey.  Great Britain wins far more medals than Germany At Summer olympics, but GB is also inexistant in Winter Sports and Most popular Team Sports (Volleyball, Handball, Basketball, Ich Hockey).  
    • Thanks, great stat! Tannheimer wont turn 20 until August 2025, so she has The whole Season To Join Kristiansen and Neuner. Too Bad that she was ill this week. I think Galmace Paulin and Tänglander could also do it. I think Grotian (born 2004) is The First female Biathlete born after 1999 To make a World Cup Podium. On The Mens side multiple Athletes (Perrot, Giacomel, Uldal) have already done it.   E. Öberg was 22 and a half when she First won.  Dahlmeier was 21 and a half.   Edit: Grotian only narrowly missed The Podium in The Individual at The 2024 World Championships when she was still  19 year old.
