Karate Qualification to Tokyo 2020 Summer Olympic Games


Recommended Posts

By cancelling the European Championships, WKF will count 2019 results which means the current ranking will remain the same, even though it's really hard to imagine they can have that last K1 event in Madrid but I still consider that as a possibility, this is how ranking looks like and this is the list of 100% qualified athletes.

 

Men's Kata

:ESP Damian Quintero - 10117.5 Q

:TUR Ali Sofuoglu - 6892.5 Q

:VEN Antonio Diaz - 5205 Q

:ITA Mattia Busato - 4650 Q

 

 

Men's 60kg

:KAZ Darkhan Assadilov - 10387.5 Q

:ITA Angelo Crescenzo - 8850

:TUR Eray Samdan - 7912.5

 

Crescenzo is 100% qualified if less than 32 athletes register which is really possible considering the situation, Samdan needs to win the gold, Creszenzo losing the first round and also needs at least 33 athletes in the draw. looks almost impossible

 

 

Men's 67kg

:FRA Steven Dacosta - 8940 Q

:BRA Vinicius Figueira - 6832.5

:EGY Ali El-Sawy - 6472.5

 

 

Men's 75kg

:IRI Bahman Askari - 9262.5 Q

:ITA Luigi Busa - 7740 Q

:AZE Rafael Aghayev - 7005 Q

:UKR Stanislav Horuna - 5707.5

:USA Thomas Scott - 5047.5

 

 

Men's 84kg

:TUR Ugur Aktas - 10372.5 Q

:IRI Zabihollah Poursheib - 9225

:CRO Ivan Kvesic - 7087.5

 

 

Men's +84kg

:IRI Sajjad Ganjzadeh - 8617.5

:GER Jonathan Horne - 8062.5

:GEO Gogita Arkania - 7080

 

Horne only has to participate in Madrid to qualify, even not participating most probably won't hurt him. but if Horne makes up for almost 600pts difference with Ganjzadeh that will change so many things. Kevsic and Arkania can't do anything themselves, their fates depend on Horne and Ganjzadeh.

 

 

Women's Kata

:ESP Sandra Sanchez - 12322.5 Q

:ITA Viviana Bottaro - 7275 Q

:HKG Grace Lau - 6300 Q

:USA Sakura Kokumai - 5887.5 Q

 

 

Women's 50kg

:TUR Serap Ozcelik - 11302.5 Q

:IRI Sara Bahmanyar - 5647.5

:AUT Bettina Plank - 5197.5

 

 

Women's 55kg

:UKR Anzhelika Terliuga - 9472.5 Q

:TPE Wen Tzu-Yun - 7080 Q

 

 

Women's 61kg

:CHN Yin Xiaoyan - 10545 Q

:EGY Giana Lotfy - 7710 Q

:TUR Merva Coban - 7027.5 Q

:SRB Jovana Prekovic - 5482.5

:CAN Haya Jumaa - 5137.5

:IRI Rozita Alipour - 5107.5

:FRA Gwendoline Philippe - 4890

:FRA Leila Heurtault - 4515

 

 

Women's 68kg

:AZE Irina Zaretska - 9247.5 Q

:SUI Elena Quirici - 6525

:CHN Gong Li - 6412.5

:EGY Feryal Abdelaziz - 6075

:ITA Silvia Semeraro - 5730

 

 

Women's +68kg

:IRI Hamideh Abbasali - 6997.5 Q

:TUR Meltem Hocaoglu - 5677.5

:GRE Eleni Chatziliadou - 5655

:KAZ Sofya Berultseva - 5467.5

:ITA Clio Ferracuti - 5017.5

 

-----------------

 

so in short I can say 2 athletes qualified tonight with this decision

:TPE Wen Tzu-Yun

:TUR Merva Coban

Another Announcemente from WKF, replied by Brazilian Karate Federation

 

Dear WKF National Federations,

 

We have received today an official communication of the Madrid PL host, the Spanish Karate Federation, informing us that the Madrid PL has to be cancelled in the actual circumstances derived from Covid-19 pandemia, which are well known to all.

 

Consequently, the WKF cancel the Madrid PL with immediate effect and no further registrations will be accepted.

 

Regards,


Antonio Espinós

President

 

Is that means the qualification period is finished?

and this is how continental quotas stand for now

 

Men's Kata:

Men's 67kg: :EGY:LAT

Men's 75kg: :AUS:USA

Men's +75kg: :KAZ:USA

Women's Kata: :NZL

Women's 55kg: :AUT

Women's 61kg: :PER:MAR

Women's +61kg: :EGY:CHN

 

 

here is the detailed list, only athletes in bold are qualified right now. others are next in line

 

Oceania - Men

:AUS Tsuneari Yahiro (75kg)

 

Oceania - Women

:NZL Alexandra Anacan (Kata)

:AUS Kristina Mah (61kg)

 

Africa - Men

:EGY Ali El-Sawy (67kg)

:EGY Abdalla Abdelaziz (75kg)

:EGY Ahmed Shawky (Kata)

:MAR Adnane El-Hakimi (Kata)

 

Africa - Women

:EGY Feryal Abdelaziz (+61kg)

:EGY Radwa Sayed (55kg)

:MAR Btissam Sadini (61kg)

:EGY Sarah Sayed (Kata)

 

America - Men

:USA Thomas Scott (75kg)

:USA Brian Irr (+75kg)

:VEN Andres Madera (67kg)

:CHI Joaquin Gonzalez (67kg)

:CAN Daniel Gaysinsky (+75kg)

 

America - Women

:PER Alexandra Grande (61kg)

:BRA Valeria Kumizaki (55kg)

:DOM Tanya Rodriguez (+61kg)

:DOM Maria Dmitrova (Kata)

 

Asia - Men

:KAZ Daniyar Yuldashev (+75kg)

:KAZ Yermek Ainazarov (75kg)

:UZB Dastonbek Otabolaev (75kg)

:UZB Sadriddin Saymatov (67kg)

 

Asia - Women

:CHN Gong Li (+61kg)

:IRI Rozita Alipour (61kg)

:KAZ Sofya Berultseva (+61kg)

:CHN Li Ranran (55kg)

:IRI Fatemeh Sadeghi (Kata)

 

Europe - Men

:LAT Kalvis Kalnins (67kg)

:AZE Asiman Gurbanli (+75kg)

:AZE Firdovsi Farzaliyev (67kg)

:MNE Mario Hodzic (67kg)

 

Europe - Women

:ITA Silvia Semeraro (+61kg)

:AUT Bettina Plank (55kg)

:UKR Anita Serogina (61kg)

:ESP Laura Palacio (+61kg)

:BUL Ivet Goranova (55kg)

 

 

------------------------------

 

from the list above only the following athletes are 100% guaranteed a spot even if they fail to qualify directly . for the rest anything is possible. if anybody in that list qualifies directly that changes the order completely. for example if Egypt qualifies at 67kg, the African quota goes to 75kg and that will ruin USA's chance at this weight.

 

:AUS Men's 75kg

:NZL Women's Kata

:EGY Men's 67kg

:EGY Women's +61kg

 

 

another example, if Gong Li qualifies directly, Asian quota goes to Alipour (61kg) , European quota goes to Italy instead of Austria. then the 3rd African quota will go to a male athlete from Morocco in Kata therefore the last American quota will be a female which will be Brazil. that was an example to show one athlete can makes change for 4 more !

There're even doubts about having international Olympic tournament in Paris so if it will be cancelled as well they are going to qualify 6 athletes Per each category and it should be with athletes that gained continental quota that's per a member in Egyptian federation

personally I think if they can't have the last OQT in France (or anywhere else) that means the situation is still very bad in May and I don't think we will have the Olympics in July. and if they postpone the Olympics itself, there will be enough time to have all these qualifiers.

 

but in case they want to count the ranking to qualify 3 more athletes per weight, this will be the list of qualifiers

 

it will be good for Egypt, Turkey and Kazakhstan, interestingly Turkey will have a full 8 member team ! :yikes:

 

Men's Kata: :ESP:TUR:VEN:ITA:USA:GER:EGY + :MAR

Men's 67kg: :KAZ:FRA:ITA:BRA:TUR:EGY:RUS + :UZB:LAT

Men's 75kg: :IRI:ITA:AZE:UKR:USA:TUR:KAZ + :AUS:EGY

Men's +75kg: :TUR:IRI:GER:CRO:GEO:KAZ:UKR + :USA

Women's Kata: :ESP:ITA:HKG:USA:TUR:NZL:DOM

Women's 55kg: :TUR:UKR:TPE:IRI:GER:AUT:CHN + :EGY:BRA

WKF announced the list of Qualified athletes so far

https://www.wkf.net/news-center-new/meet-karates-first-qualified-athletes-for-tokyo-2020/1256

 

while we knew it already, the most interesting part is the Japanese names. all high ranked Japanese athletes in each category are qualified . not sure if it was mandatory by WKF or that was Japan's selection criteria.

    • Here's the Official Olympics Page - as you can see, both  &  are on the TBC list   Where to Watch the Olympic Games Live | Milano Cortina 2026
    • We don’t even have a broadcaster or streaming platform for the games ! IOC couldn’t get any deal for the Indian viewers and we can’t watch this games live ! 
    • 2028 Team Size Projection – Jan 2026 Update   Here’s an update to my 2028 Team Size Projection. While I touch upon major events changes may occur due to results in smaller events. Additionally, several sports released their qualification document so there may be cases where I have to update the projection. I will only include sports where there is an update.   Here is the link to the updated sheet.     Aquatics (Water Polo) The Men’s European Championships saw take gold. The victory moved Serbia up a few places between European nations. With that said, no one fell out of Olympic qualification with the likes of France and Romania still on the outside looking in. remains on the edge.   Athletics (Marathon) Both the Xiamen and Osaka marathons were held this month along with a few other smaller events. While there were a few changes in the rankings, in terms of Olympic projections gains an athlete in the men’s marathon at the expense of   Badminton Major tournaments include the Malaysia Open and India Open. New updates which affected projections include the women’s doubles where overtook . As Polina Buhrova is also scheduled to compete in the singles event, an additional spot has been open. Other changes in the women’s singles was loses one of their quotas. and benefit from those losses.   Indonesia’s loss on the women’s side is offset by gaining a second player in the men’s singles. This puts   on the outside.   Canoeing The qualification document for both Slalom and Sprint were released/updated. No significant changes were found in the Sprint update. Slalom had significant changes relative to 2024 where the initial quotas will be decided by rankings and kayak cross will now have significant quotas being allocated. After adjustment, the following nations lost a quota; Andorra, Chinese Taipei, Ireland, New Zealand, North Macedonia, Slovakia, and Sweden. The following nations gained a quota; Canada, China, France, Italy, South Africa, Spain, and Tunisia.   Cricket The Women’s T20 World Cup Qualifier was held. No changes to the projection.   Equestrian (Dressage & Jumping) Various World Cup events were held. No changes to the projections were made.   Fencing We had two Grand Prix this month, one for epee and the other for sabre. In men’s epee, overtakes . On the women’s side, the United States moved into the top 4 in the team ranking, pushing Estonia down to fifth. This pushed out of Olympic qualification while takes the Americas quota. This caused a downstream effect on the individual side as Ukraine takes an individual quota and Canada relinquishes their quota, additionally, gained a quota while lost one.   In men’s sabre, now takes the Asian team quota pushing down to just an individual quota. No changes were found in women’s sabre.   Handball Four men’s continental championships were held this month. finished top in Africa while a couple of upsets were saw in South America and Asia where and won over and respectively. Despite their wins, they currently haven’t leapfrogged into being projected to qualify. We’ll see how they perform at the World Championships.   Europe saw finish fourth. This was enough to push it into Olympic qualification projection. They pushed out.   Rowing The qualification document was released. There was a change in boat allocation relative to 2024 and the continental qualifier was slightly different than what I projected. Additionally, I assumed coastal rowing would allow 2 men and 2 women to compete in its three events, but the max is 1 man and 1 woman. This has caused significant changes to the projections.   Overall, the United States lost four quotas. Canada, France, Germany, Ireland, Lithuania, New Zealand, Norway, and Spain lost two quotas and Algeria, Argentina, Croatia, Cuba, Egypt, Kazakhstan, Netherlands, Portugal, Tunisia lost one quota.   The following nations have gained two athletes; Japan, Morocco while the following nations gained one athlete; Angola, Austria, Belgium, Chile, Chinese Taipei, Cote d’Ivoire, Denmark, Estonia, Kuwait, Latvia, Mexico, Romania, Philippines, Paraguay, Puerto Rico, South Africa, South Korea, Switzerland, Togo, Uzbekistan, Vanuatu   Rugby Sevens Fixing a couple of mistakes. First on the men, actually has the Asian quota over and in the women as is essentially shutting down the program, I think it is only right to remove them until they decide to compete again. This means is also projected to qualify.   As for new updates, we saw the third tier SVNS compete, which brought no new updates and the Singapore SVNS. I also didn’t add the Dubai or Cape Town SVNS in my calculations. For both, while there was some shuffling no one ultimately fell out.   Shooting The Asian Shotgun Championships were held this month. A few top shooters were missing. The only change to the projection is is set to qualify in women’s trap, pushing out   Squash The Tournament of Champions was held this month. Additionally, the qualification document was released. There was some restriction as to how many nations can send two players and this sport will offer universality quotas.   The following nations lost an athlete quota; Colombia, France, Great Britain, Hong Kong, Malaysia, and New Zealand. The following nations gained an athlete quota; Canada, Pakistan, Spain (x2), Switzerland, Ukraine   Triathlon The qualification document was released. There are a few changes relative to 2024. Projection changes include: Losses to Hong Kong and Slovenia and gains for Austria and China.   Weightlifting The qualification document was released. One change to be made was the reallocation process for host nation quotas. Due to this, El Salvador Iraq, Palau, Sri Lanka, Tuvalu, and Vanuatu lost quotas while Australia, China, Dominican Republic, Iran, and Samoa (x2) gained quotas.   Wrestling The qualification document was released. There were some significant changes to the qualification process including using the world rankings and the final qualifier only consisting of non-qualified nations. The projection changes are as follows; losses to Belarus, Bulgaria, China, Georgia, Germany, Hungary, Japan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Mongolia, Russia, South Korea, Sweden, and Turkey.   Belgium and Lithuania gained 2 quotas while American Samoa, Austria, Estonia, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Latvia, Madagascar, Spain, and Turkmenistan gained 1 quota.
    • Looks like we in the Philippines are in the same situation. No news yet on whether we’ll be able to watch the Games 
    • Cricket is any day in a better position than Baseball, Modern Pentathlon or Rowing 8s globally
    • http://i.imgur.com/gLJZbix.jpg   Honestly football is just on another level. For other sports, an expanded field or creating multiple host cities likely only works with baseball, cricket and maybe basketball, and only in very specific countries.
    • No streaming for the games in India. I contacted IOC they just sent me a list where the games will be shown live.    Last games we had the Olympic channel and YouTube showing the live coverage for regions with no media rights. This time sadly no such schedule.   So much about making the games accessible to all...
    • What revealed those files of Epstein !!!! thousands of scandals , horrible diguisting things mixing politic criminalities , robbery , scam , manipulation...etc    all those celebrities of shht that you love   
    • I wonder if instead of having flexibility around what sport to add there should be one or two team sports per game with an expanded field (of 16 or 32 or w/e) where the host gets to pick which which team sports (if any) has an expanded field.
