Probably, unless some tripartite nation withdraws. UWW and IOC are in a tough spot, might as well take the easier route and give 1 extra quota to wrestling. Besides, in tennis they already will compete with more than what they were given. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcro 10,192 Posted July 14, 2016 #490 Share Posted July 14, 2016 (edited) Yes, our wrestling federation has confirmed that we have received an unused host quota, meaning that we can expect 3 more nations to qualify.
