There's the archery world cup in Colombia from May 11, but the B-teams have been sent in recurve. Most top compound archers are still there...

I will put that in Non Rio Events since our main recurve archers are not there

 

Meanwhile I will add Seoul Challenger too where Paes is playing to improve his rankings

Its actually a pretty complicated situation. UKR and BLR actually qualified at the European qualifier but then tested positive. However, their b-samples are yet to be tested and the hearing process is pending...As a result, UKR and BLR both competed in the 2nd world qualifier in Turkey as well (with different wrestlers) and both qualified once again...

 

So, 2 quotas have to most definitely be re-allocated in 125 kg because UKR and BLR ain't gonna be sending 2 wrestlers in the same category. As to who will get those quotas, there are a lot of complications. The best case scenario for Hitender is actually if the UKR and BLR athletes who competed in the Eur champs come out clean, as that would mean their quotas earned at Eur champs would be valid, thus UKR and BLR would become ineligible to win quotas in Turkey and thus those quotas would get awarded to the Bronze medalists at Turkey - IND and ROU..
