+ he's got 8.20 (+2.0) at the Sunshine Invitational on May 2 but I can't find the official results.

The 8.20 was a mistake. It was actually 7.20. The ppl at the event had an error in input.

Who is the alternate? I'm curious because if the US wins a medal at the team event, the alternate will be given a medal as well. 

Alternates are not given medals...

Vanuatu

Brazil Qatar qualify in men's 

$10 Qatar's team is made up of Brazilians or someone born outside the country.

How did you know that Canada decline the RS:X (both men and women) and 49er quotas? ISAF has not published the updated qualification list for weeks.

Both facebook/Instagram pages of the athletes who qualified the original quota confirmed this. Idk about 49er...

Canada also declined men's RS:X quota. Who is next in line?

This decision seems strange, but in Canada results speak. If you send an athlete and they finish so low, your funding will suffer. In events with less boats, the athletes have a chance of placing in top 20. For ex. finishing 19/20 in an event is better than 37/50 (even though you were much further away from last). 

I honestly hope after 2020 this sport is dropped from the Olympics. With 120 quotas you can add squash and make baseball and softball at 8 teams each...

Canada received an additional quota in the men's platform. Still awaiting news for the men's springboard.

Nepal: Men's archery + Men's Judo 

Bangladesh: Women's archery 

Group B

That's what bugging me too. Hard to believe that Greece got 2 in men's weightlifting.

Maybe he fell out of the top 15? Or he failed a doping test. Who knows lol

Thanks for sharing! This covers the withdrawn quotas + unused individual quotas.

 

Some seem a bit random though, for example Uruguay in women's.

 

@konig like we said, there is always a hope for doping reallocation in weightlifting.

And Greece got a men's spot (even though their athlete is in the top 15 ?)

This also removes a lot of wild card countries and also increases the chances the chances of countries like Bangladesh to get one.

Africa: KEN (M) / MAR (W) MRI (W)
Asia: QAT (M) SRI (M) / IRQ (W) UAE (W)
Europe: GRE (M) ISR (M) / FIN (W) LAT (W) SWE (W)
Oceania: NRU (M) / SOL (W)
Pan-America: CHI (M) GUA (M) / ARG (W) PER (W) URU (W)

These are the countries receiving reallocated quotas (via the IWF)

" If the NOC qualified through the 2014 and 2015 IWF World Championships, the quota place will be reallocated to the best ranked NOC at the 2014 and 2015 IWF World Championships, not yet qualified."

- So we are looking at:

Men:

+1

 Israel

Austria

Belgium 

Nauru

Libya

Mongolia 

+2 more (as more than 2 are tied on 0 points).

Completely unfair as they modified the qualification criteria after they were published... originally players (including tripartite places) were supossed to compete in at least 3 tournaments to be able to play in Rio.

Yea, the BWF wrote not eligible beside his name (then updated it ).
