Athletics Qualification to Tokyo 2020 Summer Olympic Games

That’s essentially the point I’m making. My posts were just to point out flaws with the current qualification system.

The current qualification system with high qualifying marks and World Rankings are fine in my opinion. But I feel World Athletics didn't manage the qualifying system properly during the coronavirus pandemic. 

Due to the coronavirus pandemic, many competitions got cancelled or had travel restrictions. Hence most of the top competitions were held in Europe & North America and athletes from Asia and Africa couldn't participate. To remedy this, World Athletics could have held region wise tournament and assigned a category of C or D which offers enough ranking points. Hence it would be fair for African and Asian athletes not having the pressure to attain qualifying mark but garner enough ranking points.

I can't see too. I check number and filter in men's 100

It's weird. When you open the Road To Tokyo page, the filter shows 'men's 100 m', while it is the women's 100 m list that is being displayed automatically.

 

To display the men's 100 m list, you need to choose another event on the filter, and then choose men's 100 m again...

 

I seriously believe this could be a case of forced gender equality creating a software bug...

Well, from the theee girls with the exact standar and the +2.0 wind she's the only one in qualyfing ranking place. It's not heartbreaking, is just convinient she's the one that gets the wind adjusted ;)

I checked the long jump ranking and at the moment, Veiga is out of qualification spots. And that's despite Thiam not using her quota, Iapichino's withdrawal and Sokolova not being selected for ROC. There are two universality qualifiers that might have bumped her out. She will need two more withdrawals/rejections of invitations to make it, as she is ranked 34th, with only 32 available spots.

    • Hello everyone, and yes, on the road to LA28! I’m sure there will be some great discussions here.   I made a profile here four years ago and now I’ve finally become active   Better late than never.

    • Yes  you can be both ,... i never watch Russian media 
    • Sometimes it is really funny to read - beeing called jew and nazi at the same time. Just what russian propaganda says
    • Today the voice is a little bit different!        
    • Ukraine hates anyone works with Russia , like if they were the center of this planet ....revolte against Zelinsky (the jew)  is the only solution to stop this war    Life becomes expensive because of you , Russian products were cheap   
    • For those who think Hungary started to poison things with Ukraine!           
    • It's really funny - the VO has had a constitutional majority for 16 years and someone always blocked him from fulfilling its brilliant plan Without these hostile actions, Hungary would probably have been at the level of Switzerland in terms of GDP a long time ago Btw., in sports, Hungary probably also had better results in the 90s and early 2000s than during the VO era? I mean in the summer, because in the winter, apart from the episode with the Liu brothers - now China in short track, it's probably always been pretty poor level.
    • Some new members for us to welcome      @MichiganGold  nice to have you here on the road to LA       @Learphollach welcome in! Great to have a fellow Irish on here .

Glad to have you     @Nashorn88 great to see another active member from Finland! We hope you stay and enjoy participating in the threads        
    • For me is aimed at domestic consumption. BTW, Brussels and Ukraine is happening at the same time as far as constructed "enemies" are concerned. Does anyone still fall for this? Maybe someone over 80 years for sure.  A couple of years ago (but after the war broke out) an old man (in his own admission he was 82) in a local bar tried to convince me that without Don Vittorio in the government, I would be already fighting in Eastern Ukraine  Needless to say, he was unsuccessful.
