It looks like Greece's time they set at the Acropolis Grand Prix at the end of May is no longer showing in the Fina Swim World Rankings. @Makedonas have you heard anything about this?

I was always a tad suspicious of 1/100 of a second on home soil. That may be unfair on my part but it didnt smell right

This is the first I hear of it. Are we still listed for the 4 x 100 mixed medley relay? We also got our qualifying time at the Acropolis Grand Prix for that event...

 

Edit-Just checked and we aren't listed there either. Does anyone know if we were originally on the list for these relays and them removed? The mixed medley relay seemed more realistic as it put us in 15th and not 16th...

 

And for the men's medley relay we qualified in Rio too so it didn't seem suspicious to me. Gkolomeev, Christou, Vazaios are all top European swimmers. Only Meretsolias (breaststroke) isn't.

I think Greece is never on the list not removed from the list. I am also confused why it didn’t submit the result to FINA in time or it have no such plan at all.

 

I am also confused that some countries’ results showed as club’s such as Hungary and Korea. I am not if they will be counted. Hope FINA release the official list soon don’t confuse us any longer.

They all celebrated qualifying in both relays and the swimmers gave interviews about it and there were articles and social media posts about them qualifying for Tokyo...what a mess it would be if they miss out due to some error in not reporting the results :facepalm:

I can't claim credit for finding this. It was sent to me by the American based Brazilian swimming coach Alex Pusseildi

I think the Athens' meet wasn't approved as a qualifying event because of some issues with the doping tests after the races...

 

it's the most probable explaination for that meet not being taken into consideration...

We also had a swimmer qualify in the men's 800 freestyle from that event and it looks like that's no longer the case either. So it wasn't just the relays but the whole meet.

    • I have reported this again and they said it should be fixed now, please let me know if you are still facing issues.
    • more countries added to the list of US ban    you can't travel to USA if you are from : burkina faso , niger , Laos , South sudan , mali , sierra leon ...
    • Yes, but what I mean for Serbia is that everything changed there (unfortunately for us ). 2022 was an unbelievable mess, that's not the case anymore now with just one athlete who has really gone for it and made it, so I'm 99% sure they'll accept it this time.   Who knows though. Plus there's always 1-2 bigger countries here or there who reject something, but it's not gonna be 16 places I'm afraid   
    • Doping by Event Type When we look at which events have the most doping cases, a few categories stand out from recent sanction records: Long Distance (3,000m and above): 32% of cases Sprints (400m or less): 24% of cases Jumps: 12% of cases Javelin: 8% of cases Middle Distance (800m–1,500m): 8% of cases Hammer: 8% of cases Steeplechase (3,000m SC): 4% of cases
    • From 2020 to 2025    These three countries alone make up almost two-thirds (61.9%) of all current doping violations in athletics worldwide. It’s worth noting that 199 of World Athletics’ 214 member federations have no athletes on the current ban list. This means the problem is really concentrated in a small number of places. Here’s a look at the top countries: Rank Country Total Violations Percentage Region 1 Kenya 119 24.74% Africa 2 India 108 22.45% Asia 3 Russia 73 15.18% Europe 4 China 26 5.40% Asia 5 Turkey 20 4.16% Europe 6 Italy 18 3.74% Europe 7 South Africa 18 3.74% Africa 8 Ukraine 17 3.53% Europe 9 United States 16 3.33% North America 10 Morocco 15 3.12% Africa
    • Here's my calculations of the quotas. I believe you are correct about Italy having 3 quotas in men's singles.   Men's Singles   3 Quotas: 2 Quotas: 1 Quota:   data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAPABAP///wAAACH5BAEKAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAICRAEAOw==   Women's Singles   3 Quotas: 2 Quotas: 1 Quota:     Men's Doubles   2 Quotas: 1 Quota:     Women's Doubles   1 Quota:
