Any information about Ukrainian (ski jumping) team? 

 

Nothing new yet... I don't think they have achieved enough MERs in competitions, so probably their only chance to keep the team is 5.1 clause of the qualification system...

Aaaand it's over. :( Dittmann got 62% today, meaning South Africa loses their dressage team qualification. Really sad. First they miss out on Rio 2016 by 0.02% (!!!), and now they qualify and then (just) miss out on MER. :cry:

 

'Congrats' to Austria and France for their parasitic qualification (unless Belgians collectivelly score like 90% tomorrow lol)...

 

This also means no qualification for Palestine...

So, after today, Austria and France are 99.9% qualified. The only way for one of them to miss out is if :BEL Roos and :BEL Verliefden both score over 85% tomorrow.

 

Additionally, Luxembourg is now guaranteed to take an individual Group B quota. It will be their Olympic debut in equestrian.

Why is it in theory? Any possibility it doesn't go through?

 

Well, yes, she should be okay. I just find it curious how she scored most of her points in these small Villeneuve-Loubet competitions. But nevertheless, all those competitions are listed as 'D' category events, and as such they should give her plenty of points.

 

Apparently she got another 4th place today, what probably puts her out of reach for the Thai rider too. Hong Kong is all washed up with nobody competing anymore.

Onto the Group F for jumping. Virtual standings look like this...

 

:SYR Ahmad Saber Hamcho - 871

:JOR Ibrahim Hani Bisharat - 824

:KSA Ramzy Al Duhami - 684

 

Syria and Jordan have no competition, but one of them could miss out if Qatar fails to keep its team... Saudi Arabia failed to qualify for the second Olympics in a row. Really weird, considering they won a team bronze medal in 2012! :wacko:

 

Interestingly, all those Damascus competitions could prove very costly for Syria, as Bisharat might be able to overtake Hamcho on December 30th (of all days). :p But then again, even winning both remaining Damascus competition might not be enough (if too few athletes are entered).
