:NED van Zundert is now guaranteed a top 16. Hopefully it’s enough for her no fun allowed NOC to accept the dang quota.

I tried to find the Dutch selection criteria, but I had no luck.

Looks about 30~ countries should qualify for Beijing here. Not bad (32 competed in PyeongChang). 

 

If we use this tournament to allocate the Nebelhorn Trophy results, a further 3 would qualify, :AUS, :TPE and :TUR  

Great, although there's going to be some quota rejections as per usual.

Lithuania will end up rejecting their ice dance quota due citizenship laws

Netherlands are likely to reject their ladies quota 

etc.

Netherlands would have the dumbest NOC ever should they decline that quota.

 

2005 skater entered Top 16 and became the first Dutch to qualify since 1976.

 

No way they decline that.

Figure skating is the only sport for which the Dutch NOC has not published their internal selection criteria yet.

 

There's a very realistic chance they won't accept the quota yet though, as the philosophy is that every athlete that will go to Beijing has to prove that they have a realistic chance of finishing top 8 in Beijing. I don't think a top 16 here is sufficient. :wall:

I am quite frustrated at how vaguely the qualification system is written tbh.

Well, tell me about that. I don't know what to say ..... I think ISU also confused themselves. Anyways, official quota will be released by ISU by April 11 latest. So let's wait till that date and see.

I wish the German federation would take the same approach.

Slightly off-topic: Is that you in your profile pic?

    • Linn Gestblom (previously Persson) Will miss all season. Not recovered after surgery.
    • Greece and Portugal also have winter sports centres - but of course these are not homologated routes for World Cup competitions I have never been to Albania personally, so I don't know the country at all. I have been in southern Croatia, though, and there are mountains there but you definitely can't ski there (I was there in the summer, but it's also impossible in the winter). World cup taking place there only in Zagreb.    In general the case of Colturi and Kostelic is completely different: Colturi has no ties to Albania and Janica Kostelic was Croatian and didn't left their country even though at the beginning of her carrier (and also her brother Ivica) her father had to pay for everything and the federation's support was zero. This only changed later. I imagine that the Kostelic family had offers from other countries (Austria, Switzerland, Italy?) to compete for them, which were much richer (at the beginning of the 21st century Croatia was a very poor country and devastated by war). All the more respect for them because they were true Croatian patriots until the end. I can imagine the Colturi family in a similar situation... Her mother would probably negotiate with half of Alpine Europe for Lara to compete for them Which of course doesn't change the fact that the Italian federation completely gave a shit in this situation. They let such talent go in a situation where they hasn`t a single female athlete on the podium of the World Cup in slalom for a dozen or so years. In the giant slalom it's not much better either, only there the older athletes cloud the picture: Brignone and Bassino. However, behind these two there is absolutely nothing...
    • Atalanta is probably playing the most beautiful football in Europe right now: spectacular and effective. It's nice to watch and they don't have to spend a lot of money for it.   Inter is playing very economically. It's not impressive but it's consistently collecting points. It's also the only team in the Champions League that hasn't conceded a goal this season.   Milan played very poorly yesterday but they won. They have 9 points and are close to qualifying for the play-offs.
    • You can do the  same thing with trump:   Trum , Trumpet ,Trumeau ,Trauma ....
