Can anyone clarify how many tennis player will go to tokyo from india?

I think Sania Mirza can use her protected ranking to get into WD. Apart from her, I don’t think anyone is close to qualification. But, in case a lot of players skip the Olympics, which is always a real possibility, then we may sneak in a couple of more players.

I don't fully understand the qualification for Doubles, but if preference is to given for doubles pairs till 24th rank then pair of Rohan Bopanna (40) and Divij Sharan (74) should qualify. Sania Mirza qualifies on virtue of protected ranking of 9 and she will most likely pair with Ankita Raina. Then need to check if combined ranking of Bopanna and Mirza is in top 15 for Mixed Doubles.

Till 24th rank, quotas will be allocated based on combined ranking, which puts singles and doubles ranking at par.. After that till quota of 86 athletes per gender is reached, same formula will be used. After that priority will be given to teams with players already qualified in Singles. 

 

Assuming that Bopanna/Sharan do qualify, don't think combined ranking of 49 would be enough to qualify for Mixed Doubles.

    • 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.
    • What good is it to us if we took 4th place and lost an important match? If Constantini was sick, I forgive her, but I'm afraid that the Italian team will not exceed a certain level. Yes, they have made progress since 2022, but they lack that one decisive step to become a class team. Here we lost all important matches with teams at our/higher level: Sui x2, Sco x2, Swe. We only won with the one we were supposed to win with. I don't believe in a medal for this team in Cortina. After 2022, it seemed that Constantini could dominate women's curling, but it didn't happen that way. After Sinner's recent successes, I opened my eyes a bit and started to demand more from our athletes, coaches, and officials. I have no intention of being satisfied with 4th place, because with this approach, you won't achieve anything great.
    • play their best, but only get 1, so  get bronze 6-4!  
    • Oh dear, once again a 50% shot from Constantini when she needed 100%.   blank the end & go into the 10th with the Hammer of Thor.  
    • Very quick end &  get 2 back to 6=3, but  have the hammer in ninth....
