It seems that teams ranked 5th to 8th at the test event are not guaranteed of a spot at the Olympics - they need to have an all-arounder in qualifying position, and then the quota is allocated to the NOC (which can choose any athlete to go to the Games). Well I think they're mostly safe now, with weaker nations to come (JAM, IRL, NZL) and already ahead of other 5 NOC's that have no reserved place (Algeria does), then I assume they're safe, but just barely... pity for Argentina and Puerto Rico, who are almost out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OlympicsFan 783 Posted April 16, 2016 #112 Share Posted April 16, 2016 (edited) France and Germany should be safe, Spain should be out. I think Ukraine also will qualify. The 4th spot should be between Romania and the Netherlands. My money is on the dutch team here. Is there a live stream for this event and if yes did someone watch the german team? I almost cant believe our score. Hambüchen should bring us about 3.5 points (2 at high bar, 0.5 at floor, 0.5 at parallel bars and 0.5 at rings), so we might have the potential for at least 354 points if those scores were really "fair". The key today was pommel horse, where we scored 3 or 4 points more than we normally do.

dcro 10,179 Posted April 16, 2016 #113 Share Posted April 16, 2016 If Netherlands qualifies men's team they will end 88 years long drought, the last time they had a team was in 1928. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's gonna be very close against Romania..

heywoodu 13,559 Posted April 16, 2016 #115 Share Posted April 16, 2016 (edited) We have to be 2.224 points better than our score at the World Championships to beat Romania and take the 4th spot. This is how it is so far, compared with Glasgow 2015: Pommel horse: +1.867 Rings: -1.400 (logical, without Van Gelder) Vault: +0.334 Parallel bars: +0.534 Total: +1.335 Meaning we have to make up let's say half a point on average on high bar and floor. Zonderland should be able to clearly improve his 14.300 on the high bar in Glasgow, but I wonder how much risk he will take..

heywoodu 13,559 Posted April 16, 2016 #116 Share Posted April 16, 2016 Holy....Wammes going from 13.966 in Glasgow to 14.666 here and Deurloo from 14.000 in Glasgow to 14.925 here Those could be the scores that seal the deal for the team...if Zonderland does a normal job and if they do a normal job on floor..
