Which is the next olympics qualification tournament for any sport in which India has some chance?

The Weightlifting event in South Asian Games was a Silver event and could avail Olympic ranking points but it was stripped of the status.

The 49er class in Sailing qualification will start on 3 Dec and there's Indian participation. Although India is very unlikely to qualify from this event, it will help if any Asian nation qualifies. The Asian qualification will be in 2020

Just watched Rituparna loosing in the semis, almost embarrassing watching her, no backhand, no smash, very slow on court, couldn't believe she reached semis, if this is the standard of our ladies after Sindhu and Saina, I'm afraid there's not much light under the tunnel.

Sathiyan played really well in game 1 and won that game, post which his coach seemed to give him a lecture of 5 mins to assure him that he won that game by fluke and thus he needs to do a lot things differently from game 2(Timo Boll kept waiting for Sathiyan to come back to the table), definitely our coaches need psychological counselling, Tino Boll improved his game from game 2 and Sathiyan looked confused in taking decisions, anyway really appreciate Sathiyan he has done well here.

Saurabh reached finals...... Good effort by him

7000 points if he wins tomorrow and his least scoring tournament points will be deducted, assuming his score increases by 6000 points he will be very close to 16th(qualification) rank in Race to Tokyo, hope he wins tomorrow.

    • This season? It's a pity that we couldn't try fight for him, especially considering our problems in the sprints. 
    • Lara Malsinier and Alex Insam are junior World Championship medalists from a few years ago. Maybe it was possible to provide them with private teams then and now they could even fight for a single podium from time to time? I mean especially women because there, for example: Canada or France can be in the top, so why not us? Now Rodlauer from Austria has joined the Italian team but for now there is a huge gap to the top and only Sieff and Lara Malsinier are jumping well. There was success in the Summer Grand Prix but with a weak competition. Even 3rd place in a single competition in winter is worth more than winning the LGP with a terrible squad.   It remains to wait but I fear that the most we can count on is a dramatic fight with France and maybe Finland in the mixed competition at the World Championships. Bresadola probably won't return this season, so only the inconsistent Insam remains. 
    • When did Kim Min-Seok switch to Hungary?
    • Earlier today, Taiwan beat the USA    Of course it's car from the best US tram but it's still a big deal for Taiwanese baseball
    • And even here we lose to France? I really don't know what's the point of organizing the Olympics if you can't make progress in practically any sport. France has the Olympics in 2030 and there they will definitely prepare 100%, just like for Paris. We can't do that. It's obvious that in ski jumping we have no chance of winning medals, but decency dictates that we should at least win here with a France like that.
    • Finally the ski jumping season begins 11 teams in the (real) mixed team competition, no Switzerland.
    • Most of our athletes are constantly bothered by something: the pressure to qualify, the miss of pressure when they have already qualified, etc. It's the same in football: at the beginning of the season they are a poor form becouse of a little played and at the end of the season they are tired. They are always looking for excuses. A real champion always plays at a high level, like Sinner, and doesn`t look for 1000 excuses for his poor performance.
    • Think it is mentally difficult for the two teams with the Olympic place guaranteed and the pressure off, whereas everyone else is absolutely playing at 110%.  I'm sure things will be better once they get to Milan. 
    • There's no point in cheating, these were terrible European Championships for us. Retronaz out of form, Constantini with a huge number of big mistakes. Only illness can excuse it... We've probably lost the last 10 matches with Switzerland... It looks like Constantini had the tournament of her life in mixed doubles in 2022 in Beijing and she will never reach this level again.
