sharath has obviously lost to some degree on purpose  ...losing the last two sets consistently after wining three ... I think he is try  to go thru the second round ( asian )  ...where he will find it very difcciult but then will almost defintely get thru on the world ranking area ... This is his quote 

 

World No 61 Sharath, who’s Olympic ranking of 39 all but confirms his place in the extravaganza, concedes the regional development looks a tad messy on paper. “It’s confusing, but yeah, it’s just us. I’m not sure why other teams are not participating. Maybe they don’t want to spend money without a chance of returns. I should eventually qualify no matter what... it’s more like a formality. But if I qualify on the South Asia quota, then Ghosh will be hard pressed to accomplish a berth on the Asian continental quota,” he tells Express.

 

This makes it almost certain that we will have 2 member mens team ... In fact with a team ranking of 17 ... there is a reasonable possibility of a mens team to be there in the onlympics in men ???

Any clarification on tiebreaker for women's section? 

 

http://www.ittf.com/competitions/test/_groups_matches_draw1.asp?grp=1&Event_Type=WS1SA&Competition_ID=2633

 

As per this results page, Manika is given the top billing ahead of Shamini.. So I think H2H result will be the tiebreaker

Dipa Karmakar's  Rio Olympic test event is on 17th April , 2016

 

The Executive Committee of Gymnastics Federation of India headed by Shri Sudhakar Shetty (President) nominated Dipa for the 2016 Rio Olympics Test Event scheduled at Rio de Janeiro from 16th to 19th April 2016. This will be a golden opportunity for Dipa to qualify for the 2016 Rio Olympics. Dipa have earned this position through her performance and hard work. Good luck to her and hope for a first ever Olympic Qualification by an Indian Gymnast.

 

I hope I do not sound pedantic but India has had gymnasts in the olympics before .. I think we had 2 in the 1952 olympics and 3 at the 1956 olympics .....  but we have never had a better gymnast than Dipa ..... so more power to her

Mouma is really unlucky to get the korean....

There are 6 quotas to be won in second stage. 4 winners from each draw should qualify. Last 2 spots should go to repechage. Mouma has a realistic chance of winning a quota in that. By my calculations, Mouma is 5th highest ranked player in second stage (behind North Koreans and Thais)

    • North American rugby quotas ( and qualified automatically)    M: and W: and  
    • I remember Caroline Golubitsky. She competed with Vezzali for a while but not for long. Rita Konig, whom Vezzali defeated in the final of the Olympic Games in 2000, was more famous, as well as Sabine Bau and Anja Mueller. From what I remember, the Germans competed fiercely with us at some point, but they almost always lost.
    • Shemyakina won a bronze medal in 2014 Worlds and was one of our leader but leave the squad due to pregnancy (she has 2 daughters if I'm not mistaking, so she chose family instead of sport). And speaking of foil we have back in the day Sergiy Golubitskyi, who was Olympic silver medalist and won some medals in other competitions and coached his wife Caroline Golubitskyi - one of the German foil specialists. Even in women's foil we had medal in Women's foil at the European championship - it was Olha Leleiko, our current national coach. So no, we are pretty good fencing country, and depending on generations of our athletes some events are more "profitable" for us and some don't. 
    • Shemyakina that was a very strange story. She unexpectedly won the games but before and after she literally achieved nothing. After that success in 2012 she also completely disappeared. It's only in epee that such strange situations. That's why I've always preferred foil and sabre, because the top was more stable there, although that's changing now. The competition has grown a lot all over the world.
