What are the quota expectations here? I have no idea if we have a chance here or not. I don't expect anything from Láng for example, this will her first big senior competition. 

Lang has a decent PB though (granted, from her home event).

 

Still, should be the only chance for Hungary here in Stockholm.

Ladies singles:

  • :RUS:JPN should qualify 3 skaters each. Anything else would be a surprise.
  • :USA should qualify 2-3, :KOR should qualify 2.
  • :CAN 1-2. May profit from the ridiculous loopholes and wound up with 2 even with some average performances.
  • And then we get to the part where individual Top 10 equals two spots (basically, one athlete earning more than one spot for the Olympics, only possible in figure skating). :EST Kiibus, :AZE Ryabova, :SUI Paganini, :POL Kurakova, :BEL Hendrickx, :CHN Chen are the candidates for this (definitely NOT all of them though).

 

Pairs:

  • :CHN:RUS should qualify 3 pairs each.
  • :CAN should get 2-3, :ITA:USA are looking at 2 spots each. :FRA could get lucky 2.
  • :AUT:GER may get the second spot by virtue of having an individual pair in the Top 10.

Yeah, just to confirm, :CAN Canada would qualify two skaters for the ladies' singles even in case their athletes placed 12th and 24th.

 

But then again, Canadian skating is in such deep crisis, that even this seems like a tall order...

Canadian figure skating is definitively in... lets call it rebuilding mode.

 

I’d be a little surprised if Canada can even medal at the team event in 2022 at this point. Very different from where the team was during the last decade, that’s for sure.

Yea, never seen a country loose this much depth, ever in this sport. Thankfully OTP has realized investing only in current potential is not the best way of going, so maybe we should see a rebound in 2026 and onward (sustainably).

:CAN Shizas leads, but it appears the other Canadian will struggle to qualify for the free skate. This would mean that Shizas needs Top 10 to keep two spots for Canada.

    • I'll post significant changes periodically. I'll start with the recently added/updated documents.   Archery The addition of mixed compound (12M & 12W) forced a reduction on the recurve side. The mixed compound quotas are distributed as follows   Host - 1 World Championships - 3 Continental Games - 5 World Ranking List - 2 Final Qualifier - 1   To compensate the team events will now only have 8 nations. 2 quotas were removed from the World Ranking List and 2 were removed from the Final Qualifier.   Individual recurve and mixed recurve distribution is the same
    • In Rome, it would be useful to roof the swimming pool complex at Foro Italico, possibly with the option of retracting the roof and covering the tennis court complex. Overall, there's a lot to do, for example, compared to Budapest, but unfortunately, this is Italy How many years has Roma been building their new stadium, and they keep pushing back the completion date- now I read it's 2030? and it should be ready. The same goes for Milan- there should be a modern complex of indoor swimming pools with 50 meters pools, etc., but there's a problem with one stupid football stadium, which will only be built after an ultimatum from UEFA

    • We call it beauty skating, if we're using the literal translation.

    • impossible, there are not enough venues in both towns and I mean, Milan doesn't have an Olympic Stadium, a decent Tennis Complex and a big Swimming Complex (not to mention the sea) Rome, on the other hand, doesn't have a Rowing/Canoeing Basin nor arenas and stadiums for the team sports beyond football and rugby there's no chance that all those venues would be built from scratch, meanwhile if we use both cities we already have almost everything we need, especially the most expensive and controversial sites

    • https://nypost.com/2026/01/31/sports/team-canada-skeleton-coach-joe-cecchini-speaks-out-after-american-katie-uhlaender-manipulation-claim/   Oh the drama....   Cecchini: “I don’t really wanna speak negatively about Katie, but Katie was not on the World Cup team. She wasn’t a top-tier athlete in that program anymore. She was at the end of her career. I would personally would rather race against Katie. She’s not as competitive as the other athletes,” he said. “It’s probably really unfair to say and not really where I want to go with this but that’s where we are with that.”   Uhlaender: “If I were Canada, I would be concerned in how this coach is representing the Olympic values for his country,” Uhlaender told Fox News Digital. “He hurt a whole field of athletes, all with dreams, and this sends the message that they don’t matter unless they are number one. All athletes matter, and we all deserve to compete fairly, with integrity, and respect. He did not respect anyone in that field. “This is not about my resume or how good the athletes were in the race. This is about the fact that he intentionally manipulated the competition to hurt myself and 13 other countries because he felt it necessary to eliminate all possibility. That is against the spirit of sport and not what the Olympic movement represents.”   Isn't it great when other people's dirty laundry is aired?  /sarcasm     (I was a little surprised to see NPR pick this up, but per this article, Uhlaender preemptively recorded the phone call after receiving a text from Cecchini that said he had 'bad news' for her.)
