I'm not sure, the way the qualification document was written doesn't explain what happens. We'll have to wait and see what World Archery says. Asia was smart as they held the team qualifier before the individual qualifier.
 
Either the next highest ranked athlete will qualify or the quota will be reallocated to the final qualification tournament.

yeah Leithold lost 9-8 shootofg against Ane Marcelle dos Santos  last cycle. Still thinking about that.

injured

Leithold threw away a quota in a shoot-off as well for Tokyo I believe.
 
 
If there is a shoot-off, sudden death, golden point, whatever in these tense individual sports always expect the  to drop the ball.

cant believe it, same as the shooting quota last week, another 6

No. Team events will only be at the Pan American Championships from April 9-14 (there’ll also be individual events in compound and recurve featuring Valencia and Almeida), although both this and the Pan American Championships will be at the same venue. FYI this is the Pan American Olympic Qualifier, only for individual events.

It will be a debut for Uruguay in taekwondo.

another tournament with no small nations! despair

Nicaraguan guy in -80kg kicked the guy from Suriname in the nuts 
 

I dont know nothing about that participation.

Not true, there was representation in 1988.

Not sure sorry, I don’t follow taekwondo. 

Tough match, Mario lost the final of the South American Championships a week ago against Enriquez

You must add the  to Argentina, never an argentinian qualify to the olympic games in this sport.

Nice to see Abernathy  making the 1/8th Finals, even if she didn't make it any further.
 
D'Amour  through the QFs.

Is this event being streamed anywhere?

QUOTA!!!!!!!!!  

Perez Maurice injury forfeit. I think this is the definitve end of her career, she un-retired only for this I believe.

I just rewatched the point and it was totally absurd.
 
Not speaking as a Brazilian, but as someone with a bit of knowledge on fencing.
 
Several mistakes here (Zhang's knee in front of the foot, very poorly executed flèche... and he not only falls during the touch, but his back feet also lands first, so he does not reverse correctly...) 
 
He could even get a 2nd yellow card for that which would give the point to Camargo.
 
I think it is impossible for Zhang to lose its quota, but hopefully FIE would acknowledge the referee mistake, the same way they did with Kharlan at WC last year and guarantee Camargo an extra quota.

That seems like a manageable group but ofc we'll end up bringing a trash team that will finish last thanks to greedy european clubs.

I just learned tonight of the big incidents from last year for the US men's epee team.

Mexico is going to have a fencer, at least.
Another sport that we’ll be present @Braulio

Last quota of the day, and yes another bout that went to sudden death:
Mariana Pistoia wins the women's foil quota
Hard fought last bout, and a big comeback from after injuring herself early in the bout.
 
To summarize, the following countries got quotas:
got a men's sabre quota
got a men's épée quota
got a women's foil quota
