@heywoodu Kuworge just lifted 411kg (his new PB) in total to beat two Iranian weightlifters for the gold in world juniors :d

 

with that result he will take that Israeli weightlifter. he will be in 24th position and with a bit of luck he will qualify for the Olympics. I believe he has a good chance.

Does Litvanov the Israeli has a chance?

When will we know?

 

And now I hope there's not some internal limit which would restrict him..

Dutch NOC makes it difficult, as per usual. For 'layer 1' of the international qualifying pathway, there are no additional requirements. For layer 2, there is an additional requirement of having to lift at least equal the total weight of the 8th placed competitor at the 2019 world championships (424kg in this case).

 

The question is, what exactly is layer 1, what is layer 2, and in which layer would he qualify?

we will have the final list in 2 weeks apparently but we will probably have a better idea when IWF publishes the updated list (after removing ineligible weightlifters) on 3 or 4 June.

 

This is the ranking if we remove "obvious" ineligible weightlifters.

if all those weightlifters expected to not participate doesn't get selected, CZE and HUN will be in top 8 and Kuworge will take the European quota. but even if none of this happens. he still has a good chance to take the re-allocated African quota.

 

this will be stupid to deny him a chance. he is the World Junior Champion with a brilliant future.

 

:GEO

:ARM good chance not be selected

:BLR good chance not be selected

:IRI

:BRA

:SYR

:TKM

:ALG

-----------------------------------TOP8

:RUS Won't be selected 99%

:AUT 109kg weightlifter but has a chance to play dirty and qualify here

:CZE

:KOR won't be selected most probably

:JPN won't be selected most probably

:HUN

:USA

:NED

Anyone with an updated list of suspended countries in weightlifting for the Tokyo Olympics and NOCs with limited quota? Is the one in wikipedia correct?

this is the last updated list, Vietnam is likely to be added too. and Romania.

    • 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.
