Equestrian Qualification to Tokyo 2020 Summer Olympic Games


Recommended Posts

After missing Olympic qualification by exactly one place at both Rio qualifiers, the Irish show jumping team has again missed it by one place. That's absolutely incredible. And ridiculous. And therefore everyone who dares to use term "bad luck" on this forum will get a stern look from me. :spank:

 

Meanwhile, this is how Group G team jumping qualification event for Rio 2016 looked like. Two quotas were on offer - Japan and Australia qualified. This time we have 2 quotas on offer again, but with a twist lying in a fact that both Japan and Australia are already qualified! Absolutely ridiculuos. One of these teams needs to avoid elimination and the joke is real!!

There’s no New Zealand in jumping group G?

 

There is, but they didn't bother to send a team last time. I guess they will this time seeing how they went in Tryon.

 

Still, that leaves a spot for one rather undeserving team...

FEi has published the updated qualification systems, and it looks like they are just another federation not familiar with its own rules...

They didn't put Australia for Group G.

Lol. Also for Pan Am Games they put PUR qualified in jumping, even though that appeared wrong.

Maybe the place would be obtained if they were in top 6 and then the 7th came into the WEG quota? Just thinking - haven't we seen enough stupidity in all those qualification systems?

I don't think so. It's the same Group G formula that was used for Rio.

    • Yea I only used transit besides this Uber / bus to the airport and back. All the venues were at the end of the line, so it allowed you to speak with other fans/volunteers etc. I even met Corrine Stoddard's mom after the first session of short track on the way back, and told her to remember our conversation if she won a medal later in the Olympics. We know how that ended up... 
    • I used public transit the entire time I was in Milan.   My first day was a doozy, because I had to two flights to reach Malpensa, and then the train into town was delayed, and then I got confused a station and boarded a tram instead of the metro, proceeded to travel in the wrong direction, got off, walked back to the station, found the metro, got off a station early, walked around a kilometer to my hotel, and checked in.   My colleagues mostly took cabs upon arrival, but I deduced to take the frugal approach. That said, I was a true public transit professional by the time I left Milan.   I actually enjoyed my rides to and from venues, because I'd just chat up fans and volunteers from different countries. It helped me learn more about the city too.   
    • It's the olympics, sleep is for the weak!    The first day i got there i was on a 12 hour flight from l.a to rome (flight that left mid day), lay over, another flight to milan, uber to hotel, then right away to speed skating (1500m men), then after uber to hockey venue for women's gold final, then after the celebrations uber to the hotel, i ended up being awake about 36 hours that day, the next morning i thought to go sightseeing in the center of milan, but ended up sleeping until like 2pm..... and had speed skating/short track that night 
    • I tried to get onto the metro multiple times and gave up    I had just arrived the day of from Bangkok (12 hr flight) and was just exhausted and wanted to sleep 
    • Plus, you missed out on a potential metro ride with me, which is quite priceless in my opinion 
    • My hotel was very close to Rho so was easy to get there, but it was so far from the hockey venue that after the women's gold medal match it was so expensive to get back, and also the next day after the usa slovakia semis it took forever, the asshole driver took the city and not the freeway  
    • Uber cost me $224 CAD to get back to the hotel from the OC. It basically prevented me from buying tickets to a speed skating session 
    • Romania's national team coach, Mircea Lucescu, has died half an hour ago He was in hospital since March 30th, just before the friendly match against Slovakia. Unbelievable how the life can have such turns...in March 26th he was in Istanbul playing the WC qualifying play-off vs Turkiye and now he died.    Thank you very much for every moments you bring us in your huge career (he's on 3rd place in a most trophies won in career, after Ferguson and Guardiola) and may your soul rest in peace, Mr. Lucescu.
