So going into the world qualifier the men's freestyle quotas for Asia are:
 
 - 5
 - 4
 - 3
 - 3
 - 2
 - 2
 - 1
 
Currently no men's freestyle quotas for China and India. In 2020 they qualified in three events each.

here are the quotas, max 2 quotas for everybody
 
57: 
65: 
74: 
86: 
97: 
125: 

and gotta tell you...I did it again!
 
I won my Fantasy NHL League for the second time in a row  
 
it's been a difficult season, but thanks to a well balanced team on offense (mention of honor, "my" Kirill Kaprizov and the good oldies Evgeni "Gino" Malkin and Steve Stamkos) and defense (Quinn Hughes a star, Victor Hedman always a guarantee, Gia Forsling rock solid in the +/- stat) and, above all, thanks to Sergey Bobrovsky superstar, Vezina edition between the pipes, finally I took it home once again
 
time to party, now!  

Chinese Olympic trials begins tomorrow. The rules is to choose the any best result of 3 events to compare:
 
1: 2023 WCH individual event finals and meeting OG standard A
2: 2024 WCH individual event finals and meeting OG standard A
3: 2024 trials individual event finals and meeting OG standard A
 
So based on the past 2023 and 2024 WCH, following swimmers already have eligible results and green parts are almost safe enough to guarantee the tickets before the trials. For relay swimmers, mainly considering trials results.

Hi everyone! 
 
A bit of a family emergency is going on right now (my dad isn’t doing too well, he’s on his way to the hospital as I type this), which may explain my lack of inactivity on Totallympics and updating all of the various sporting events 
 
If anyone wants to post any of them that’ll be appreciated, and if not then I’ll post them when I’m fully back! 
 
Actually, it might even be within a few days. I’ve just thought about it, and when I’m not busy visiting him at the hospital, I might choose to watch/share results of some sports. Bit of a confusing response I know, but to explain my thought process, watching (along with playing, but irrelevant point) sports and sharing results on Totallympics are two of my favourite things to do. Trying to not worry too much when personal problems is hard for me, and it might be what I need to not freak out and have mental breakdowns every couple of minutes. But we’ll see.

Disappointing week for Greece in Europe Group I, finished second in our group (beat Sweden 2-1 and Norway 3-0 but lost 2-1 to Serbia where Sakkari only played doubles...), then advanced to the next group where we needed to beat Latvia and Denmark to get promoted. Got the job done 3-0 against Latvia (Ostapenko only played doubles), and then lost 2-1 to Denmark (without Wozniacki).
 
Pretty disappointing in the end. Tauson played an incredible match to beat Sakkari, and Grammatikopoulou lost to Svendsen who is ranked in the 500s. I am not sure why Papamichail didn't play in such an important match instead of Grammatikopoulou who was mediocre all week, and also Papamichail is more stable but congrats to the Danish girls for pulling off big upsets in both singles matches @Wumo@Agger

So I just totted up what I think are the totals for the OQT for USA, AUS, GBR, Japan, Italy, China and France, using the FINA LCM rankings from 1st March 23 to today.
 
Those were the countries I thought might have a chance of being near the top of a list like this. There are other countries which are strong in part (Canadian & Dutch women) but less so collectively. I could be doing them a disservice not including them, but I was already looking at enough to fry my brain anyway
 
Russia would likely be somewhere in there, but with their uncertain status about things, I've not included in these figures.
 
USA - Men 83, Women 98 = 181 total
Aus - Men 34, Women 60 = 94 total
Japan - Men 38, Women 27 = 65 total
China - Men 25, Women 39 = 64 total
GBR - Men 34, Women 25 = 59 total
Italy - Men 33, Women 14 = 47 total
France - Men 25, Women 14 = 39 total
 
These are qualified swims, not swimmers. So Duncan Scott - for example - is in the GBR quota 3 times (100m fr, 200m fr, 200m IM). It would take me a lot longer to work that out, at least for countries that are not GBR. GBR is 37 total swimmers with an OQT - 23 men and 14 women.

20.  Argentina: 1 (1 W),  Aruba: 1 (1 M),  Bosnia and Herzegovina: 1 (1 W),  Cayman Islands: 1 (1 M),  Egypt: 1 (1 W),  Finland: 1 (1 M),  Iceland: 1 (1 M),  Kyrgyzstan: 1 (1 M),  Serbia: 1 (1 M),  Slovenia: 1 (1 W),  Taiwan: 1 (1 M),  Trinidad and Tobago: 1 (1 M),  Venezuela: 1 (1 M),  Vietnam: 1 (1 M)
 
As of April 15th. Keep in mind that  Italy,  Japan,  South Korea,  Great Britain,  South Africa,  Hungary,  New Zealand, and  Denmark have all had their Olympic Trials/National Championships already so their numbers could be inflated. I'll post this again after the qualification period is over.

I have done a simulation of the possible entry lists for Paris 2024.
 
This simulation is based on the latest OQR from IWF (published March 4th).
 
12 entries per weight. Maximum 3 lifters per NOC per gender. Host country (France) using all their 3 quotas across both genders (6 in total). Universality places are distrubuted accordingly to follow the mentioned criteria before. 
 
Green = Qualified/Selected
Red = Not selected due to exceeding NOC's maximum quotas per gender
Yellow = Already selected for another weightclass
 
Women's
