Did we lose our men's singles quota for some reason? Gergely Krausz isn't listed on the site of the Hungarian Olympic Committee among the Olympic athletes (our female badminton athlete is there). 

Would guess that it's a matter of official confirmation. 

BWF states the following:
"Players presently shown in positions above 34 are subject to confirmation of the final number of Tripartite Commission positions and hosts positions, and also subject to final confirmation of the reallocation process for players in more than one event." 

Sarosi is no. 31 while Krausz is no. 38 meaning that his spot may be awaiting official confirmation.

Hm, okay, that makes sense. The only reason I got worried is that I think he might have been listed on the site earlier and got deleted. Or maybe I just remember him being on my own list here and I am just mixing things up in my head.

These are subject to change but the two Ukrainians are pretty much safe

@intoronto If I good remember you said somewhere that  Michał Rogalski (who is first underline) may qualify if someone else will withdrew, right? Will both  and  keep their quotas? When it will be officialy known? Or maybe all chances are gone already?

Not sure. BWF hasn't released anything

Iran Badminton Federation confirmed that Sorayya Aghaei is going to Tokyo. it seems some NOCs rejected quotas. (I assume NED and FIN)

 

she will be the first ever female badminton player from Iran at the Olympics. I wasn't sure if she is healthy and ready to play. she herself was out of competition for something like 2 years. had to go through two surgeries but it seems she is recovered now.

For what it's worth, Dutch singles players have to be in the top-20 of 15 June's 'BWF Race to Tokyo' ranking in order to be selected.

Clara Azurmendi  also made it

well to me that's a stupid policy but at least this time I have absolutely no problem with that any female athlete qualifying for the Olympics is a good news for me. even if she loses 21-2 21-3 or something like that.

 

I noticed the Dutch girl is also named "Soraya" so that's from one Soraya to another Soraya.
