The Latin American qualifier begins tomorrow.

 

There will be two stages for the singles.

 

Stage 1: Single elimination, finalists qualify

Stage 2: Losers are reseeded in a new single elimination bracket, men's finalist and women's winner qualify

 

The mixed doubles will be a single elimination tournament with the winner qualifying

 

Brazil is not allowed to compete in the singles event while Puerto Rico can qualify 1 woman (and 2 men). Both nations can participate in the mixed doubles qualifier.

I’ll post my predictions later tonight.

 

As @intoronto said, :PAR‘s Aguirre is a favorite in men’s, but this is probably one of the most contested tournaments.

let me take a look at the first draws and could let you all know my thoughts.

Surely Guyana already submitted their Tripartite request...? For me, they are the frontrunners in table tennis.

What makes you so sure Guyana will get the spot?

 

The three highest ranked tripartite nations are

 

Men :TOG:VAN:COD

Women :VAN:SRI:COD

:SRI seems to have an athlete eligible in every sport for a tripartie spot lmao

That's because Sri Lanka by far has the highest participant rate of all tripartite nations. They have so far attempted to qualify in 100 events while second place among tripartite nations are Kuwait and Malta which are tied with 59 events each.

    • Maybe small but this is our worst performance at the European Championships since the post-Covid period and that's a fact. Germany and Norway surprised with their form here. However, only in Italy are things like this possible, such as changing the head coach of the team with less than two years to go before the home games...
    • In my opinion we can lose to Argentina, if it's 0-1 in a moment. This Davis Cup format is a lottery, especially with the shortened doubles. It's no coincidence that all the favorites can/will can be eliminated in the quarter-finals. The second thing is that Argentina has a very solid team: 2 players in the top 30 + a strong doubles. If you sure to will win with them, you would have to have 2 Sinners in great shape.
    • Both Edin and Retornaz at 6-3 just like rank 2 and 3. Just very small margins on h2h and DSC
    • Godun has been training in Italy and Hungary for over 2 years. It's strange that she didn't take a Hungarian passport. Our predecures are so long that it probably wouldn't make sense.
    • Our worst European Men's Championship in this cycle: no promotion to the 1/2. Retronaz has been in poor form since the beginning of the season. The change of the head coach in the Italian team last spring may have had an impact. Unfortunately, the closer to the games, the worse it gets for us and it should be better because we are the organizers.

    • Daniel Huber picked up a kee injury during training at Lillehammer.   Piotr Żyła will skip the season opener because of a knee injury too.
    • Agree with you on this. The only missed category was Long Track Speed Skating where Cornelius Kersten and Ellia Smeding have done a good job getting us involved in this event again after many years absence. He won a Bronze medal at 2023 worlds but both are realistically fringe contenders and main goal is to grow the sport here.   As for our general chances by British standards we tend to do well at the various world championships before a Winter Olympics to raise hopes and then several dont quite deliver when its time. Would prefer the reverse to happen where we save our best for 2026 and help boost our Winter sports growth.
