No they are getting women's tripartite quota. The quota goes to Thailand in M1X

 

There's no confirmation that they are getting the tripartite quota and even if they are it won't prevent the M1X quota from going to Kuwait.

from my understanding, it will be something like this

 

Indonesia needs to select its quota. That earlier article was before they realized they may have an opportunity to send the LM2x boat. All that changes is South Korea will compete in the LW2x while Hong Kong will compete in the W1x.

It was an assumption but with men's getting I'm not sure 

Yeah, there aren't a lot of options. Here are the tripartite eligible nations which competed at the worlds, continental or final qualifier.

 

M1x - :HAI:HON:MAW:MON:SUD:TOG* :VAN

W1x - :BEN* :KUW* :MAW:NCA* :SUD

 

Nations with a * means they already qualified in a different event so chances of winning a tripartite quota is lower. If we exclude nations which have already have a quota in the W1x then we are only left with Malawi and Sudan so I think there's a good chance that either, one of the * nations get chosen, a nation which did not take part in any qualifier gets chosen (like Niger in 2012) or like in 2016, the quota gets reallocated.

Is there real chance that someone will decline the quota?

As such none. Maybe if some african nation like Benin decline to participate due to covid. Like it's kinda superstitious and with Japan improving daily in the 4th wave I don't know. Apart from that any injury with no reserve rower in the nation. It's more like creative writing now. Perhaps Natan may not make it at all.

    • North American rugby quotas ( and qualified automatically)    M: and W: and  
    • I remember Caroline Golubitsky. She competed with Vezzali for a while but not for long. Rita Konig, whom Vezzali defeated in the final of the Olympic Games in 2000, was more famous, as well as Sabine Bau and Anja Mueller. From what I remember, the Germans competed fiercely with us at some point, but they almost always lost.
    • Shemyakina won a bronze medal in 2014 Worlds and was one of our leader but leave the squad due to pregnancy (she has 2 daughters if I'm not mistaking, so she chose family instead of sport). And speaking of foil we have back in the day Sergiy Golubitskyi, who was Olympic silver medalist and won some medals in other competitions and coached his wife Caroline Golubitskyi - one of the German foil specialists. Even in women's foil we had medal in Women's foil at the European championship - it was Olha Leleiko, our current national coach. So no, we are pretty good fencing country, and depending on generations of our athletes some events are more "profitable" for us and some don't. 
    • Shemyakina that was a very strange story. She unexpectedly won the games but before and after she literally achieved nothing. After that success in 2012 she also completely disappeared. It's only in epee that such strange situations. That's why I've always preferred foil and sabre, because the top was more stable there, although that's changing now. The competition has grown a lot all over the world.
    • Sinner probably won't play in another edition of the Davis Cup. That shouldn't come as a surprise. Next season, Wimbledon and maybe Paris should be the goal.
    • No, our epee was good always, we have Shemyakina, who was Olympic Champion in 2012, Reizlin with bronze in 2020, medalists of Worlds like Kryvytska (who is our finisher today), Svichkar (who is our finisher in men's side) and Stankevych, European champion Kharkova, medals in other conpetitions from men's team epee who were one of the main contenders in Tokyo, but unfortunately failed to take a medal. 
    • Does Ukraine have good relations with Poland, or are they more cold, like, for example, Italy with France?
    • Until recently, Ukrainian fencing was just Kharlan and sabre. Maybe epee sometimes. I don't remember them ever was strong in foil. There was a time when Russia, Romania and Poland were strong in foil at that time when Italy dominated but I don't remember Ukraine anymore.   Hungarian women with Aida Mahomed were too strong for many years.
    • No surprise with Aaron Judge winning AL MVP and Shohei Ohtani winning NL MVP awards.   Ohtani is the second player in history to win MVP in both leagues. Frank Robinson (1961 Reds & 1966 Orioles) was the only one before.
