After a full year with no competition, the top class Karate is back! :cheer:

 

This week's Istanbul Premier League event, though, is just a confidence builder and it won't award any point in the Olympic Qualification Ranking, as opposed to the next round in Lisbon, which should be the final qualification event among the Premier League ones...

 

However, it's nice to see some of the strongest specialists back on the mat...

not sure what happened between Day 1 and Day 2 :p but after a very disappointing first day, Iranians won almost all of their matches today, 3 (out of 4) made to the Gold medal match.

 

good start for the sport of Karate after a long long break. :clap: hopefully they can continue other K1 events like this (specially that one in Portugal as the last ranking event)

taking a look at what's important today:

 

women's Kata: we already know who is qualified

:ESP Sandra Sanchez - 11452.5 Q

:ITA Viviana Bottaro - 7275 Q

:HKG Grace Lau - 6300 Q

:USA Sakura Kokumai - 5887.5 Q

 

men's 60kg: it's between Italy and Turkey, if Crescenzo scores big today (and Sunday) and widens the gap to more than 1000pts he can finish the job today but that's a bit unlikely. I assume that quota will go to the European Championship

:KAZ Darkhan Assadilov - 10387.5 Q

:ITA Angelo Crescenzo - 8100

:TUR Eray Samdan - 7342.5

 

women's 50kg, Bahmanyar has to keep the distance, if AUT or GER manage to cut it to less than 1000pts, they can make it by winning the gold in Euro.

:TUR Serap Ozcelik - 10792.5 Q

:IRI Sara Bahmanyar - 5647.5

:AUT Bettina Plank - 4507.5

:GER Shara Hubrich - 4267.5

 

men's 67kg, 2 non-European athletes are fighting for the quota. highly possible to know the name of the qualified athlete by the end of the day

:FRA Steven Dacosta - 7950 Q

:BRA Vinicius Figueira - 6832.5

:EGY Ali El-Sawy - 6472.5

 

women's 55kg, TPE has 1400pts lead, (while 1000pts will be enough) very likely to qualify today

:UKR Anzhelika Terliuga - 9022.5 Q

:TPE Wen Tzu-Yun - 7080

:GER Jana Messerschmidt - 5677.5

 

men's 75kg, Horuna's biggest opponent is non-European, Horuna can qualify today if he gets a better result than Scott.

:IRI Bahman Askari - 9262.5 Q

:ITA Luigi Busa - 6750 Q

:AZE Rafael Aghayev - 6255 Q

:UKR Stanislav Horuna - 5137.5

:USA Thomas Scott - 5047.5

:TUR Erman Eltemur - 3712.5

:HUN Gabor Harspataki - 3232.5

women's 50kg

Sara Bahmanyar made it to the bronze medal match while both Hubrich and Plank are out. which means :IRI Sara Bahmanyar is now secured a spot in Tokyo :clap:

 

this will be the 4th quota in Karate for Iran. we still have a slim chance for the 5th quota but I believe we will finish with 4 through the ranking. that's quite a good result considering how competitive is this sport around the world.
