There won't be. The UCI rankings will be used to seed the runs.

No tripartie spots for wrestling

"If the athlete was not able to compete in the final and would have receive a diploma for their participation, they will receive that.
 
What a wonderful consolation...

This seems like a pretty impressive result: https://www.cbc.ca/sports/olympics/summer/aquatics/water-polo/canada-water-polo-world-super-league-final-preview-1.6065521 
 
Not sure if Russia sent their A team but they beat Canada when they met during the last World Championships. 
 
 

In judo we should have four ranked athletes out of the 6, with Valois Fortier just missing out due to injury. What this means is, all it takes is a 1-2 wins to make the quarterfinals and a guaranteed medal round bout. 

It seems like to me that in a few of the sports we are losing quotas the team is stronger this time round: Gymnastics, Judo, Triathlon, Beach Volleyball.

no surprise, they have to allocate the Wild Cards first. WKF still didn't even announce the Continental quotas yet, I was expecting that today though.
 
the deadline is 16 June. so two more days left. but keep in mind reallocated quotas are never a sure thing. I'm not even 100% sure about the Continental quotas I posted earlier. let alone reallocated Tripartite Committee quotas.
 
but I read the rules so many times and explained everything in details, I still think she will get the quota.
 
that part was interesting in his instagram, I like to see her reaction when/if she hears the news. after reading that post I really hope she does.
 
 

Now we know what kind of computer you use

Men's triathlon: all other Triathlon spots not distributed.

Linking to your local C-drive doesn't work very well outside of your computer  
 
Sad for Gajdosova though, losing your dream in the very last moments is a heartbreak situation  

Already dreading CBC coverage. This was posted the day after Haya was eliminated from Olympic contention

As predicted Canada will finish fourth in both events what a joke

That is good news for our Greek friend @Makedonas. Hopefully WKF will confirm it tomorrow.

Dq'd due to doping

Oh wow what an accomplishment!

Athletics simulation for Team Canada as of this moment, ofc trials will likely change some of these.

Total: 13, up to 20 can qualify atm. 
 
Women's track

Women's heptathlon: Georgia Ellenwood needs a first place finish at nationals and a PB to move into a rankings quota (just barely)
 
Total: 8, could be up to 11
 
Also Canada dropped out of the mixed relay today. Not sure if they will try for that. But if they do, they can name up to two more.
 
So as of this moment Canada has 50 athletes. Up to 69 athletes can qualify. Will be an intense last couple of weeks of qualification!

Canada was winning 3-3 (on Senshu) but received a penalty in last 3 seconds for stepping out. which annuls the Senshu. a draw was enough for the Netherlands to qualify. the match ended 3-3 draw and Netherlands qualified. (alongside KSA and Georgia)
 
they awarded the women's medals but then right before the award ceremony they called both of those guys to the Tatami telling them to fight those last 3 seconds again because Canada apparently made a protest and they found out the Canadian Karateka wasn't out of bound. Canada ended up winning 3-3 on Senshu.

That is correct. He hit 74.06... should give him a few more points in the rankings. He will need a bigger throw + nationals win with a throw over 75+ to qualify it looks like.

Am I wrong that I thought there was a Hammer Throw as part of the Harry Jerome Classic but happening in Kamloops yesterday? Does anyone know if Adam Keenan inched closer to the qualification spot? @intoronto

I will never watch Karate again.
