The reallo atipn method is official The qualifying countries are a simulation.

That means the quotas will be taken by the NOC of the best ranked paddler of the continent in the World Rankings, which if stay the same until the end of the qualification period, are: C1 M: C1 W: K1 M: K1 W:

I think in this ocassion you’re closer than in previous ones Mexico hasn’t shown a great difference with any other team

49er : After 16 Races 101 pts - Q 125 pts 140 pts 49er FX: After 16 Races 113 pts - Q 145 pts 152 pts 172 Pts 181 pts 221 pts Nacra 17: After 16 Races 105 pts -Q 128 pts 142 pts 166 pts 230 pts 233 pts ——— 299 - Q

Well, since no one else comments on the results of the Championship proper, I'll do a quick review of the Qualification tournament, and my picks for the 3 quotas per gender. Women's Draw QF1: Dos Santos is probably the strongest shooter of the tournament and it will be a big surprise if she doesn't get the quota. Sadly for Argentina, their biggest chance for a spot (Leithold) is in this same key and had a little dissapointing performance today, but she can hope to the best loser amongst quarterfinalists, if only Brazilians and Canadians go into semifinals. QF2: The spot in the semis should be contested between Canetta and Rodriguez, the later being her country's best hope to be in Tokyo. QF3: On paper this is the weakest part of the draw, as none of the competitors has big results at the international stage. Edwards is on paper the top seeded competitor; if she avoids an upset from her rivals, particularly the Dominican Jerez, then her country will 99.9% compete in mixed doubles at the Olympics. QF4: Canadian Barret has shown good form all week and will either face her countrywoman Chenier or Brazil's Machado for a spot in semis, that will mostly go to her. Qualifying NOC's: 1) 2) 3) Outside chance: Men's Draw QF1: This section will be a bloodbath with some regrettable casualties. has all his archers in this key and either Aguilar or Soto should advance to semis. However, Jajarabilla is a dark horse if he repeats today's performance at the main tournament. QF2: This could be the best chance for archers to get their pride back after 3 or so years of mediocre performances, but unfortunately I don't think it will be the case. Either Pila or Franco are most likely to get their mind focused and go into semifinals. QF3: Very interesting draw here. Cuba's Stevens is way past his prime as so is Mexican Álvarez, but given their performances so far, the later should face another Cuban (Puentes) to decide who completes the last 4. QF4: Not surprisingly has two archers in this section and should be considered favorite to advance; D'Anour however could still have some powder in store and finish ahed both of them like in today's direct elimination rounds and give his NOC their first ticket to Tokyo. Qualifying NOC's: 1) 2) 3) Outside chance:

Group B 2 - 1 1 - 1 So now we have the semifinal matches for Sunday. Winners will be in Tokyo. v. v.

Oh I read about her win yesterday, too bad she couldn't win a point against Kerber, but this should keep her in contention for one of the Continental places at Tokyo.

If the second italian pair gets less than 102.86 in their segment they could alao be in, if I’m not mistaken

I’ve just view his score sheet Like we hoped he skate real clean and landed every jump.

So Mexico is in?

After 15 races in 49er FX 105 125 146 And as Ireland in 49er Belgium let go their opportunity to secure their pass today. The other NOC’s with crews in the gold fleet are now oficially out.

Group A 5 - 0 1 - 0 Now let’s wait for the outcome of Canada v Honduras, as I’m sure none of them would like to face the locals for the ticket

@Braulio PB and free program spot for Donovan Carrillo

This is the Pan American championship bracket. The Olympic qualification tournament, to be held on Friday and Saturday, brackets are here: Men's Women's

All 4 Mexican women into the final. Let's see if one of them can add enough points to add another quota.

Reallocatipn gors to non qualified NOC of the athlete with the highest MQS in that event.

49er : After 9 Races 31 pts 56 pts 65 pts -------- No longer in contention 91 pts 104 pts 110 pts 130 pts

Group B 0 - 0 1 - 1 The final match day can bring some interesting results and combinations. Of course, due to game schedule, Canada and Honduras could fix the match as a draw will qualify them both.

0 - 4 0 - 3 So Mexico and USA will play on wednesday for first place in the group, with the locals just needing a tie.

Beyond disgusting I think IOC should enforce a rule akin that of ICF: at least 3 NOC's to contest a continental place, especially since you're taking it from other more deserving crews.

Of course, there's always the "black horse"; but rankings in archery actually give a decent view about whocan qualify. This Argentinian guy, Jajarabilla, showed a good performance in Lima, but it's been almost two years since then, and no other "major" result is shown in his competition record. Along with Oscar Ticas , Martinez & D'Amour, he could throw out any of the favorites, but they'll need to be on their best day.

Very difficult, but not impossible. You have an archer ranked higher than some other countries, but experience and control play a great part in knock out matches. If he manages to surpass his performance from two years ago in Lima, then he might have a chance.

After 3 listening "rounds" I've come up with a "rank". Now that I can identify each song, I'm ready to make the first cuts during the week.

In women's should get one of the 3 quotas, the other two spots should be contested by & Men could be an authentic bloodbath. While should be amongst the qualified NOC's, the other two tickets are open to archers from & , but one can't discard either or

Happy birthday! Enjoy your celebration
