Gerassimenko (KAZ)

Kenjaev (UZB)

No. Alamian (IRN)

Achanta (IND)

Tanviriyavechaku (THA)

I really hope that Germany will win two medals. That's not unrealistic.

2 medals would be almost disappointing. We have the 2nd best mens team and the 3rd best womens team. On the womens side only China and Japan are stronger and we won 1 match against Japan at the world championships. I expect silver on the mens side and at least bronze on the womens side. In mens single Ovtcharov should at least win the bronze medal, he could also reach the final if he has to play against Zhang Jike in the semifinal. I think on the womens side Solja is our best option for a medal, she can beat anyone except the 2 chinese girls. 2 medals would be ok, 3 medals would be good, 4 medals would be amazing.

according to this document solja and han are qualified, but i guess the final word is with german federation

http://www.ittf.com//Ol_Qual/2016EU/2016%20EOSQ%20Annex%201.pdf

and i giess we have tomorrow 3 quotas available

I think there is no way that Shan Xiaona will play, unless Solja or Ying get injured. Both are better in world ranking and both have a better record at big competitions.

Pitty to loose to all those Chinese bought athletes... Anyway, we shuold have one player through rankings anyway.

Just out of curiousity, which of the Chinese-born players (or players with a Chinese name) actually are "bought"? Because 100% sure not all of them are.

Well, it's not really a question of buying. Olympics are simply becoming Chinese championships (especially women's division). None of the other Olympic sports is as one-sided as table tennis, in terms of nations good enough to win.

 

Sure that most of these Chinese players weren't bought... But everything has a limit for a "good taste", even something like this.

Women's cross-country skiing is more boring in terms of which nation wins :p 

 

I prefer to look at it in a different way. For example, Dutch Britt Eerland is learning incredibly much from constantly playing with Li Jiao and Li Jie, a ton of things she would have never learned if she would have played in a team with only "real" Dutch players.

Arguably men's Curling would be as bad if top Canadian teams started going abroad (nearly happened too - Jason Gunnlaugson, Justin Richter and Tyler Forrest had originally planed on competing for Russia at the Sochi games and I'm interested in knowing where Qatar got it's curling team). The Canadian Olympic trials are by some margin the most competitive event in that sport.

    • Trump will attack Iran soon , maybe tonight   
    • Yep, that was really unfortunate, but well, such things happens. Anyway this amount of lugers is really impressive.   Congrats and good luck at the Games
    • Yeah, Qualifying a team for the summer olympics is completely out of the question. Not going to happen for a long time. In Sydney 2000 we had 3 teams W Basketball, M Football & M Water Polo, it was already insane and this was even in a totally different era. Nowadays it is just Utopian. We have none to be at a high level in Europe to aspire for a qualification to the Olympics.   W Handball is really the most obvious chance in a long shot. The U17 girls showed last summer that it is possible, who knows maybe in Brisbane if the planets allign well.    Paris 2024 was a nightmare I do not want to remember. The worst games I experienced in my life. point.
    • Khm, do we know the fate of the  license in pairs? I did not see confirmation of their entry.   If they fail  must get full license (team + individual) and one more place for team event will be available, am I correct?
    • Honestly, we did not expect more than 8. 2 additional places happened just becaues your double could not grab it due to the injury(?).
    • Vivat Slovakia    But in all seriousness, it's been repeatedly stated how important it is to qualify in a team event for the next Summer Olympics. However, I have no idea if we even have a realistic chance.   We only have one fewer individual athlete competing this year than we did in Paris, so individual quota spots aren't the main issue. Where can we find a competitive team, like we do in hockey? Maybe the women's handball team could start something big, but that's still far in the future, very likely unachievable in just two years.   And to be clear, as horrific as our medal tally from Paris looked, those were some of the unluckiest Olympics for Slovakia I have ever seen. Finishing in the top six seven times (!) is absolutely insane.
    • Biathlon (6 - 2W; 4M)   Anastasia Tolmacheva Andreea Mezdrea (our media put her in)   George Buta Raul Flore Dmitri Shamaev George Coltea   Bobsleigh (4M + 1 reserve)   Constantin Dinescu George Iordache Mihai Păcioianu Mihai Tentea     Figure Skating (1W)   Julia Sauter - flag bearer       Luge (7 - 3W; 4M)   Corina Buzatoiu Carmen Manolescu Raluca Stramaturaru   Denis Serban Marian Gîtlan Eduard Craciun Valentin Cretu     Ski Jumping (4 - 2W; 2M)   Delia Floea Daniela Haralambie   Daniel Cacina Mihnea Spulber   Alpine skiing (2 - 1W; 1M)   Sofia Moldovan   Alexandru Stefanescu   Nordic skiing (3 - 1W; 2M)   Delia Reit   Paul Pepene Gabriel Cojocaru   Snowboard (2W)   Kata Mandel Henrietta Bartalis   For me it’s a very special edition because two of my friends (Edi Craciun and Gabi Cojocaru) made it. So fingers crossed for them and for the whole delegation.   We don’t expect to much as usual in winter games (1-2 top 10 - luge team, women’s doubles luge, 2man bobsleigh, and maybe Julia Sauter if she will skate clean both programs)
