The UK withdrew in the women's 4x200. Brazil goes to the Olympics as a subistitute

Looks like Poland withdrew as well, Denmark is the replacement.

Gregorio Paltrinieri got mononucleosis...   most likely, he's going to miss the Olympics, but even if he pulls out a miracle and recovers in time, he will be chanceless in terms of medals...

To whom it may concern, (and for the first time in a while I write this sentence not to start a cover letter), here is a very brief recap of swimming qualification after some events took place. Please

Any reasons why?

Too many relay races with too many teams?

 

Poland for example qualified 6 relays, and like none of them has a chance of making the final? IMO, both swimming relays and synchronized diving events should have 12 teams. Or at the very least 14 and 10.

Not sure, at the Polish Open Polanska and Kossakowska are listed as qualifying for the relays. Maybe one of them got injured?

 

Poland also doesn't have a lot of individual qualifiers and since "relay only" athletes must have reached the OST in the event, maybe Poland was unable to make a proper team. Like they may have to use Laura Bernat as one of the 4x200m free members...

The reason GB withdrew was scheduling with two other events taking place in the same session which would have involved women who would have swum in the relay. Given that it was the weakest of the seven GB relay teams it was decided to give priority to the individual events. Similar factors may have played into Poland's decision.

In GB's case, in particular, I think they believe Abbie Wood has a real medal shot at 200IM. Freya Anderson is a hell of a relay swimmer, but she's not currently an individual medal prospect. Still seems a pity not to bring Tamsyn and Holly Hibbott, add in Lucy Hope and Aimee Wilmott and at least let them have a crack.

In Anderson's case I think it's more concern about her overall workload with 100 Free, 200 Free, 4x100 Free, 4x100 Medley and Mixed Medley.

Poland has only 2 swimmers with standard B,  (or 3 minimum of Fina - Klimek). We don't have 4 swimmer. 

Wasick is going to start only 50 freestyle, Bernat is a diffrent style.

Agreed, 12 relays per event would be more than enough. Overall the relays aren’t really competitive, especially on the women’s side where there will be 4 medal contenders at best in all events.

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

      I love that it is more straightforward in relation to the number of quotas and does not allow possible problems as it was in Tokyo and Paris.

      I love the judo qualification system, for me is the best in all disciplines. It combines a strong circuit, and it allows 100 or so countries to participate in.   So, maybe, if UWW does its job properly, it will be a good thing.

      The strength of the UK is that they are 100% focused on the track, while Italy must to navigate between the track and the road: the line-up is different for practically every event, etc. Paternoster should focus 100% on the track; she won't win anything big on the road anymore. As it is, she's weak both there and there. The situation is different with Balsamo, as she's also having significant success on the road and likely earns the most money there.

      Discovery+ in the UK have also got their schedule up now.     I notice that only thing listed as being in UHD is the Opening Ceremony though....

      The problem over the last few years was that no-one was able to keep pace with the big Katie Archibald turns. Looks to be sorted now.

      The women's top 50 is so crammed with athletes from the same five nations that it is not inconceivable they are unable to fill the full quota from the top 50, in which case a third double spot would open up between USA/BEL/GBR

      That women's pursuit team looks brutally fast. Batter you over the head into submission brutal, perhaps not seen since the early Trott-Rowsell days The 4 minute barrier could be on borrowed time.   The two British women sprinters Finucane and Caldwell also look pretty ominous, indeed the whole women's sprint team looks in some shape and with some depth to get that result without Finucane   Work to do for the British men's teams, but they won't be unhappy either, not to mention Joe Truman's unexpected Kilo win.

      How Many Medals do You Expect from Your Nation at the Winter Olympic Games Milano Cortina 2026？

      By JockCartier · Posted

      I prefer to do mine like this guy (https://app.podiumsport.it/) does his "Projected Medals" as probability based rather than straight medal picking... all things being equal, conversion rates should be about the same and the outliers come out in the wash. Unfortunately most people just like medal picking, and think any other approach is weird

Final Qualification Tournament: One of the above in World Rankings    and one of  (most likely) or  seem safe with two quotas. The other will be favourites if a third team gets allocated two.    Women Oceania: Europe: One of Americas:  /  if US is ineligible due to their host quota, if the host quota gets reallocated then Canada will be in contention in the rankings Africa:   Asia: One of   Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (x1?)  (x1/2)  (x1/2), whichever doesn’t qualify out of  / ,  and  ?
