Fly_like_a_don 950 Posted May 19, 2021 #11 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Magnificent performance by Mexico Alejandra Valencia 670, while Ana Vazquez and Valentina Vazquez at 667 in the ranking taking 4th, 5th, 6th position. I guess if they repeat the same performance next month they'll get easy matches and qualify and more importantly Aida Roman shouldn't join this team. @mrv86 Am I right mrv86 and Braulio 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

France can get 1 but definitely not giving a quota to Italy Dont understand this...Just because there were not much archery matches happening and they are up in the rankings dont make Bangladesh a world class team.

There's always a surprise during the final qualifier. So there will be some team definitely unexpected makes it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fly_like_a_don 950 Posted May 19, 2021 #14 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Mauro Nespoli as I expected loses though he went beyond my expectations in reaching quarters. A great victory for Nicholas of US Virgin Islands @Olympian1010 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t want to jinx anything for him, so I’ll just leave it at that. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

She’s been very inconsistent after Rio, often hitting 7 & 6, which of course left her last in consideration for making the team. I was also impressed and proud with the other girls, and I hope Valencia can serve as a mentor to the other two girls. Right now it seems Mexican women are a shoe in for a team spot.

heywoodu 13,570 Posted May 20, 2021 #18 Share Posted May 20, 2021 Could anyone who watches archery nowadays confirm/deny this is a correct photo of Van der Ven? He looks so....completely different than at the previous Olympics I mean, so different that I can't see any resemblence and seriously doubt if this photo is correct If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

I don't know why Aida is still on the team, with other ladies like our 2012 olympic bronze medalist they have never had any consideration and has been put out of the team but Aida have not produced any notable result since Rio where she bombed miserably and her press interviews and words were just awful and so full of ego that made me lost all the respect I had for her. If Mexico gets the team spot for the Games I pray we don't have Roman in the team or we will suffer big time at the Olympics. I think that for 2 straight games our women's archery team have deserved that elusive medal and failed most in part thanks to low scoring arrows from who?

Without her the current squad could win should win an Olympic medal in team ,quite confident about that. We do have a few missing teams though but without tournament practice I don't know what to say. They have made a Tokyo like field in their respective countries while Korea could be safe to win medal, not necessarily gold, competing with themselves and others is surely different. So that's something exciting to watch. I haven't seen much of Jang Minhee at the world circuit so now that she's selected I wonder about her nerves during Tokyo and her performance might decide where Korean Team stands at Olympics.
