Apparently Greece is waiting for the decision on the Colombians because then we would get the quota in men's 96 because any changes after the deadline go to the next weightlifter in the rankings and not by continental quota. At least that is what I read.

So with Oman getting a wildcard in men’s -81kg I think that means no quota for Ireland after all?

@Makedonas

Yeah I had mentioned that a few weeks ago that she would be suspended. Our man in 96kg apparently has a chance to get in if Colombia gets banned. So we'll see. Otherwise it will be the first time since 1964 that no Greek is in weightlifting at the Olympics. Sad, but somehow maybe better to not be involved in this mess of a sport...

Enzo Kuworge officially qualified in men +109kg 

 

[MHSN 3,777]

IWF awarded 3  unused host quotas to

 

61kg: Rojas

73kg: Al-Humayd

+109kg: Kuworge

 

so they indeed gave those quotas to the next best NOC in each weight without a single quota.

 

@heywoodu any chance the Netherlands accepts the quota?
