I have tried to calculate the number of events for each country. True, this is very difficult to do, so I just counted the events in which athletes achieved entry standards. I know there are some mist

:BRA is going to Tokyo with more or less 310 athletes.

 

This is the biggest delegation of our country in any olympic games (regardless the games as a host nation).

Which is a good sign that Rio was good for Brazilian sports.

Beijing 2008 was the most for Greece (156) not including the two times we hosted, and since then we went down every time (103 in London, 93 in Rio, 83 in Tokyo) so hopefully for Brazil's sake they wont suffer the same fate as us.

Hosting the Olympics should bring term effects not for just a cycle or two. I guess its harder in Summer Olympics to keep the momentum

Yeah, it is still a reflection of the amount of investment in sports for Rio... but, as @Makedonas said, the biggest concern is for Paris 2024.

 

Our delegation is big, but the real chances of medals are not too much different than from Rio. Actually I believe that we have the same expectation of medals mainly because of the inclusion of Surfing and Skateboarding...

Can I say that :GRE will have 73 athletes in Paris? :d

I think for us the problem was that we invested a lot for athletes to be in Athens and still had some of those leftover for Beijing, but by the time London came around so many of them had retired. Plus we had an economic crisis which began between Beijing and London so that obviously didn't help either. However it seemed like for some sports there was no vision after Athens. It was like we focused on Athens so much that we neglected the future after Athens. I'm not sure how much Brazil focused on the future after Rio. China and the UK seemed to do a much better job than Greece in that regard.

 

We also very well could've had 128 instead of 103 in London. We had two shock non-qualifications (men's basketball where we were ranked 4th in the world and women's water polo where we won the 2011 World Championships), so those two sports obviously played a role in our massive drop in team size from Beijing to London (we qualified both of those teams in Beijing).

 

 

And please don't say that we will have 73 athletes in Paris, I refuse to believe it :lol:

To be honest though I think in Paris we will go back to 100+. We have a very young team going to Tokyo so I expect many to return, plus we have a lot of good young athletes/teenagers in sports like athletics, swimming, rowing and a few others which gave us hope. Plus having France host might make it easier for us in some team sports, especially our men's and women's basketball team as there will be one more European spot.

      Wish I could say the same, for me it’s rare when there’s a day that there’s absolutely nothing on for me to watch There’s even stuff on Christmas (NBA and NFL), although usually in the days leading up to it there’s less sporting events going on.

      Gravel world championships     And ski jumping Summer Grand Prix, just finished catching up on an insane season of Red Bull Rookies Cup, still lots of NASCAR to catch up with and with this weekend being a bit of a slow one in terms of live sports (and the MotoGP/2/3 things being in Japan and so being done and dusted by 9am my time), it's so far been a weekend with lots of catching up

      Just finished watching the Gauff-Muchova final at the China Open, and I’ll be watching both the men’s and women’s finals at the GSOC HearingLife Tour Challenge, but here’s what else I’ll be watching (or at least trying to watch) the next two weeks.    BWF Denmark Open, ATP Shanghai Masters, WTA Wuhan/Ningbo Open, FIVB Elite 16 Joao Pessoa, FIFA U17 Women’s Football World Cup (lesser priority, the knockout stage matches are in late October to early November), European Table Tennis Championships (lesser priority), FIS Ski/Snowboard Big Air WC Chur, UCI Track Cycling World Championships, WA Swimming WC Shanghai, NBA/NFL/NHL, any semi big curling events that I can find streaming for, any club season volleyball matches that I can find streaming for (some are on VBTV which helps but this season my teams are Gas Sales Blunergy Piacenza, Vero Volley Monza, Vakıfbank, Eczacıbaşı, Asseco Resovia), 3X3 Basketball World Tour Amsterdam/Macau (lesser priority and no group stage matches, only knockout if I have time and I’m not feeling too fatigued)   Edit: There’s also the Archery and Triathlon WC Finals, damn there’s a lot going on.

      Short Track Speed Skating ISU World Tour 2024 - 2025

      By heywoodu · Posted

      To be fair, the only way to make the qualifying day shorter is by allowing fewer athletes and I really don't think that's a good trade-off for the sport. Qualifying day can be the biggest spectacle one can imagine, it's still not going to draw amazing viewing numbers anyway, since it's basically just laying the foundation for the weekend.   Ice resurfacing definitely takes a while if done properly, if pushing it they could maybe get it done just under 15 minutes or so. I'm a little afraid it goes the way of athletics, where things are pushed more and more into ever shorter formats. Shorttrack days and sessions can only realistically be made shorter if they spread a World Cup out over 4 instead of 3 days, but it's not like Thursday is going to be a massive audience day.
