  1. I think that is in Kuwait. But Kazakhstan bought three naturalized three Canadian players so idk... But Slovakia omg
  2. Countries that earned a quota at the world championships cannot earn another quota here. However Canada will be allowed to qualify a team at the final qualification event in June.
  3. Oh wow! I thought you wrote earlier he is out (lol). Now two Canadian men have qualified for Rio.
  4. Canada will only have one male wrestler in Rio... Not a good sign considering everyone on the team is 30+ besides Gill! On thr other hand all 6 women have a chance to win a medal on any given day (but 1 or 2 would be nice)
  5. Diving is very specialized. You don't see athletes from.smaller countries competing. Taekwondo on the other hand is a sport a lot of these countries can be competetive in (Afgahnistan, Gabon, Mali etc)
  6. If 2 qualify it would meet Wrestling Canada's goal of 3 men in Rio.
  7. Garcia lost to Romania in Mongolia, and Romania lost to Slovenia. So it will be tough for him to qualify. Hopefully one of tagziev/gill/pineda qualify (or more)
  8. http://www.insidethegames.biz/articles/1037217/four-russian-olympic-champions-used-steroids-at-sochi-2014-whistleblower-alleges Coupled with Ahn's gold medal and Wild's two gold medals we are talking about more than half of Russia;s gold medals being from doping/bought athletes.
  9. Yea with the Ioc seeminingly moving towarda a gender neutral event (for.ez canoeing and rowing will have same amount of events in 2020) the pressure will be on sports like wrestling to follow suit. However for ex. Synchro is only for women so kinda hypocritical if you ask me...
  10. Lithuania has a small chance in the men's singles if a couple athletes withdraw (which has happened in the past)
  11. IMO wildcards in sports outside athletics and swimming should be given to the best eligible countries.
  12. Hopefully the situation is averted. Is the ISraeli good?
  13. They are really secretive about this. Thought Agenda 2020 was going to have transparency, but I guess not.
  14. Canada named its Olympic team Cynthia Meyer: Trap Lynda Kyjeko : 10 m air pistol/25 m pistol
  15. weird how an athlete who competed in the 58kg event in qualification is given a wildcard in the 68kg event. Afghanistan was robbed.
  16. World Junior Champion and Youth Olympic Gold medalist Mary Fay (Canada) has retired
  17. Lets hope they qualify: http://www.theguardian.com/sport/2016/mar/12/afghanistan-skiing-winter-olympics
