Still clueless about those 20 wild cards... Don't get what's taking so long.

 

Maybe they are waiting for the other nations to confirm the quotas before announcing. Let’s see if we can make some educated guesses. In total there are 103 tripartite nations. Of those 35 qualified to the Olympics through the rankings, leaving us with 68. Only South Sudan doesn’t have a judo federation meaning the other 67 nations have a chance. I remember from 2012 that athletes which did not have an Olympic ranking were given a wild card so you can’t rule anyone out, but here’s a ranking list of nations with athletes which have a rankings (ordered by athlete with the most points). In total 29 nations have ranked athletes.

 

:MNE Montenegro – 541pts

:MON Monaco – 233pts

:AND Andorra – 133pts

:YEM Yemen – 125pts

:CPV Cape Verde – 67pts

:COD Congo DR – 56pts

:BDI Burundi – 52pts

:LIE Liechtenstein – 52pts

:PLE Palestine – 50pts

:AFG Afghanistan – 48pts

:GUI Guinea – 48pts

:CHA Chad – 44pts

:BOT Botswana – 30pts

:PAN Panama – 13pts

:SMR San Marino – 8pts

:DJI Djibouti – 6pts

:NEP Nepal – 6pts

:RWA Rwanda – 6pts

:SWZ Swaziland – 6pts

:MKD Macedonia – 4pts

:MAW Malawi – 4pts

:SYR Syria – 4pts

:LAO Laos – 2pts

:MLT Malta – 2pts

:NCA Nicaragua – 2pts

:PAR Paraguay – 2pts

:SUR Suriname – 2pts

:BAN Bangladesh – 1pt

Out of these nations eligible for the Tripartite Commission Invitation, only 18 of them will be awarded, as the places won by judokas from the Refugee Olympic Athletes have already taken.

 

On a worst case scenario, the IJF list might be published on a later date, as Russia and Uzbekistan have not yet completed the lineup of judokas for the Games. Some of the Russians across the majority of the Olympic sports were also alleged by a doping scandal amidst wake of the irrevocable Olympic ban for the nation's track and field athletes.

Nope, there will still be 20 tripartite quotas. Invitations for refugees cannot be counted as tripartite quotas (for one thing, refugee olympic team is not a tripartite nation). They will be counted as extra athletes, similarly to those women's quotas that were awarded to Saudi Arabia and Qatar in 2012...

Okay. Sounds fair though.

IJF interestingly says that 136 countries will compete (including wild card nations), but they don't say who got the wild cards. :wacko: All they say is that 114 countries qualified, 20 received wild cards, and there is a Refugee team + an extra athlete from Syria. That's how we finish on 136 countries.
