I just wish these "free" continental quotas will be limited in the future, like establishing that the only will be awarded if three or more members from a continent with a current ranking compete in it.

Congratulations Canada

I think rather Venezuela qualified, isn't it?

And Venezuela gets the ticket for Tokyo Another missed oportunity for Chile after 2016.

A long shot, but can she actually earn points to keep the fight for an Olympic quota?

Surprisingly, Mexico forced the Dominican Republic to a fifth set, which was surprising in itself. Sadly, they drop the towel in the end. I'm curious about what they can do against Puerto Rico and Canada.

Wow, Venezuela upset the hosts 3 sets to 1. This could be an interesting tournament.

Happy New Year everyone May 2020 be a great year for each of you and Totallympics.

So if Norway won't do it, who qualifies?

I don't say it was bullshit, just explaining why some here might consider that a bullshit medal. As you say, I myself only blame Mexican riders for originally losing that race.

Because they originally won bronze after Mexico had two false starts in the bronze medal race

Well, Paul is most surely in Tokyo as Trinidad and Tobago in sprint is the first NOC not qualified for the team event, and they hold can't longer be pushed behind 7th place. They will likely get another spot in keirin, as they're currently in fifth position on the list.

It seems Njisane Phillip tested positive, so that substracts a gold and a silver for Trinidad and Tobago, not to mention this will really hurt their chances to qualify for Tokyo in team sprint. Also, Mexico got silver and Peru a bronze medal in men's team sprint, after both Trinidad and Tobago & Brazil got disqualied

I know it's quite early, but before I go help cooking, let me wish everyone here a Merry Christmas Here in Mexico, people get together tonight and dine, the menu is different according to the region, but tonight we're having onion soup and turkey with mashed potatos and vegetables this time.

I'm not from South America, but I can tell you the following are quite good: Bandeja Paisa Ceviche & Lomo Saltado Churrasco Chivito Asado, Milanesa & Cordero al Palo Chorrillana

No surprises as Elizabeth Cui wins the quota in women’s springboard and Domonic Bedggood winning the men’s platform competition by just 0.15 over fellow Aussie Sam Fricker

I don't think it's that bad... Lima also had its entire OC shuffled with less than two years to go and they delivered. Santiago should not be as problematic as it is a better planned city, unless the protests continue and violence scales.

Just the stream it appears.

First Day quotas go to Australia, with Shixin LI winning men's 3m springboard and Nikita Hains winning women's 10m platform.

I thought only Melissa Wu had won the quota in women's platform.

South Africa performed well here, but I still think Romania will move up.

This team quota and the one from North America are a complete joke... there should be a single team quota for the winner of the PanAm Games and no team quota at all for Oceania.

They are not hosted in Costa Rica, but in Panama City

Some news from ODECABE - CACSO: The first edition of the Central American and Caribbean Beach Games is going to be held in 2021, with Santa Marta being the only bidder so far. The "Centennial" edition of the Central American and Caribbean Games in 2026 is likely to be awarded to León ; they probably will use the velodrome in Aguascalientes for track cycling and held other distribute other disciplines in other cities, all located 2 hours or less from the main host; beach events are likely to be held in Puerto Vallarta or Manzanillo, which are the closest sites. Three more sports were added to the 2022 sports program of the Games: Bodybuilding , Surfing and Netball, which was likely the input of the English Caribbean countries.

Very nice improvement from Mexico... Dafne Navarro with small chances of winning a quota in women's and again a final in synchro, but this time by the men
