Please never stop making predictions :D

Well probably our three best athletes in the Olympic Ranking… so that’s Nicholas Hoefling in men’s -58kg, Marc-Andre Bergeron in men’s +80kg, and most importantly Ashley Kraayeveld in women’s -67kg. I don’t care if Kraayeveld didn’t win her weightclass at Trials, I would still select her regardless. She’s the clear #2 Pan American athlete in her weightclass, about 90 points ahead of the Chilean athlete in #3.
 
But maybe that’s just me

There is no team event at the qualifiers, I added the individual results together 

The coaching staff probably feel the men's eight is the best chance of qualifying/medalling which makes sense since none qualified. But no Trevor Jones makes 0 sense
 
Rowing Canada needs to let go of upper management asap. Last few cycles this has not worked.

The Canadian women shot together 1914 at the Olympic qualifiers, at last year's worlds it was 1830

I am sure at some point over the next few days a certain poster will be online saying that GB will not be sending a team to World Relays because of budget constraints at UK Athletics. I sincerely encourage you to ignore him. 

US withdraws from u20 world's in Lima, citing safety among other reasons.

Nice to see Abernathy  making the 1/8th Finals, even if she didn't make it any further.
 
D'Amour  through the QFs.

Canada has clinched a men’s 4x400m relay quota for the World Athletics Relays! 
 
With that, all five relays will be going to the Bahamas! (hopefully I’m not celebrating prematurely but the deadline is today and we’re still in 32nd so…)

Happy she was able to speak and tell her truth. Congrats on an amazing career!
