Men's Sprint and Keirin - My prediction So UCI hasn't released the quotas yet so I was thinking to do some prediction. As each event should have 30 spots so after the competition in Milton I would predict like that. MEN'S SPRINT Quotas from Team Sprint 2 quotas 2 quotas 2 quotas 2 quotas 2 quotas 2 quotas 2 quotas 2 quotas Olympic Ranking - 1 quota Quotas from Keirin - 1 quota MEN'S KEIRIN Quotas from Team Sprint 2 quotas 2 quotas 2 quotas 2 quotas 2 quotas 2 quotas 2 quotas 2 quotas Olympic Ranking - 1 quota Olympic Quotas from Sprint Another possibility probably goes to the sprint. It looks like and may not be able to take 2 quotas, but not sure about the other riders and whether these 2 will be able to take 2 quotas or not. If not and the reallocation may go through Sprint instead of Keirin, then it should be 2 of these 3- also not sure whether Colombia would take 2 quotas. If takes 2 quotas, then it goes to and . But they may not because of the regulations as each country may be allowed to take only 1 quota. I guess UCI may also make a decision based on ranking all 4 eligible countries in both events and take an average. In this option, surely may get it and then probably which is placed 16th and 17th when is placed 16th and 25th in the Olympic ranking. And if I add also :KAZ, their ranking is both events is 15th and 24th. I also checked your prediction guys above. If and get the quota, it means that it goes to the first country currently below the line in both sprint and keirin. is first below the line in Keirin and is first below the line in sprint. To summarize, based on the official document, it is surely mentioned and it will be reallocated to the highest ranked country that yet has not qualified. I think for other countries, it is a question whether and refuses the second quota and if so, in which event. Because their top athlete will surely participate in both events anyway 🙂 Now, I am hoping for to get the quota and their position is Olympic ranking is just a bit below the line in both events 😀😀

Thanks a lot. I have done exactly the same counting. I was checking..... surely have 2 eligible athletes, even though it is Nicolas Paul who has collected most of the points. Surely and will probably have to refuse the second quota or they "won't get it approved"? Anyways, how about, if you actually get two quotas by the same athlete who gets it in sprint and keirin and you want to take another athlete, but for example someone who has never competed in WC or WCH, maybe some national level. Are there any standards which the athlete they decide to qualify, must achieve? Any UCI points or someone who has participated in some certain events?

So I was checking wiki and the qualified athletes and I have some questions. Did not find the information but if one athlete gets a quota in sprint, it means he also has a quota for keirin. At the same time, can the same country get the quota for keirin, too? As the matter of fact, if you qualify a sprint team, you have up to 2 quotas in the individual sprint. But if you dont qualify a team but you get one quota in individual sprint and one in keirin, it means that you have also 2 quotas in both sprint and keirin, right? I am not so certain about this rule. But can you qualify 2 riders for these individual events you if you don't qualify a team? Thanks.

So if there is one player who will compete in team, singles and also mixed doubles, it's considered as 1 quota, right?

So those, who earned quota in mixed doubles but also have a high ranking in singles and they qualify through the ranking, their SINGLES QUOTA will be reallocated to the next highest ranked player in the singles ranking, right? Do I understand it right? 😁😁😁😁 If so, I guess there will be more reallocations? So I guess also the quota of Doo Hoi Kem will be reallocated to another highest ranked in womens singles. So as an example, if qualifies today, Robert Gardos and Sofia Polcanova are also high ranked in singles so their singles quota also would be reallocated to another highest ranked player, right? But how about those who for example have the same player based on team qualification and they all participate in singles and also earned quota in mixed doubles? It will mean another reallocation?

KO 1 Draw - 1/8 Finals 4:1 4:2 4:0 4:1 4:0 QUARTERFINALS vs. vs. vs. vs.

So there are 2 stages. There 4KO draws winner of each qualifies to Paris. The qualification process started and Olympic channel is broadcasting

Thanks for explaining. I understand now better. Sorry I overreacted. I was hoping so much she will win the game so I was trying to find some bugs but there were actually none. Well, the life goes on, I still believe she can make it in Turkey at the Olympic qualifier in May :-)

Sad that she did not make it. I believed in her so much. It was a tough game. Anyways, hoping she will earn the quota in May in Turkey. Fingers crossed ✊✊ Congrats to Poland on another quota 😊

Hi, is there any other live feed for the evening session? Thanks 😊

In WW57, Surprisingly, Sjoberg is out in the first round. Tough match for Hanzlickova defeating 6:3 Anghel who defeated Sjoberg and only one match to win the quota against Choluj. Hanzlickova #1, Choluj #7. Paper favourite is Hanzlickova but going to be surely a tough match. In Rio, she received invitational quota, did not make it to Tokyo so hoping she gets the quota to Paris. 3 medals from ECH, including bronze from this year. I believe she can make it this time as the direct qualification . Most wrestlers we had in Atlanta 1996, 3 in GR. 2004 was 2. Rest of the games only 1. This might be the first Games we have male and female and still hoping for a possible quota earning at the world qualification tournament by either Oldřich Varga GR 77kg or Marcel Albíni GR 130kg.

Damn it. Even live results are not there 😐

Guys, any live stream apart from the paid on uww website?

Well, team Klima is doing quite well. In past few years, nobody beated them at national champs so it's always his team to represent in the international events. Despite two members have changed since qualification tournament for Beijing 2022, they play quite consistent. Yeah, loss to is quite disappointing, but on the other hand, they play really good games against (almost won) and also good game against . Yeah, they won't make it to quarterfinals, but descent positions, probably in top 10 and acceptable for next worlds, as their goal is to manage direct qualification for Milano. Which also means, that next year, they really would have to make it to the quarterfinals 😀😀

Can you share link to live results, please??

Oh sorry, my bad. Probably I misread the regulations. I thought there might be 3 spots per gender for every country including the host country.

Nono, it should be 3 men and 3 women. It can be both either qualified through the Olympic ranking and use the Host quota. If France qualifies a weightlifter in a certain category through Olympic ranking, then I think it should be in the same category where the unused host quota should be reallocated to another country in the line.

I suppose that your federation will make the selection later. They can choose which category. And later those categories where French were not selected, will probably go as a reallocation to another country.

Don't underestimate them 😜😜

Rower PAVEL SVOJANOVSKÝ passed away suddenly during handing over the prices after competition. Olympic medalist from 1976, 1980. While getting of the podium, he missed a step, ascended into a void and bumped his head. Ambulance was there in 5 minutes but could not help him. Amazing person, involved in projects of developing Czech Olympic hopes and very well respected person in Czech sports field. Such a tragedy. R.I.P. Mr. SVOJANOVSKÝ 😭😭😭😭

Yes, 3 athletes will compete in the individual competition. My guess, the top three has been decided. Jiří Beran, Jakub Jurka, Martin Rubeš. 4th spot will be for the alternate. This time it was Čupr and I guess he will go or there may inner qualification event for them. Lately, Josef Balcar is also very good so I guess either Čupr or Balcar will be the alternate. So he will be a part of the team for the team event but won't participate in the individual competition. Would if there was an injury of one of other members.

Yeah, he was surely cheering in his hotel room for the team 😃😃😃😃 I think must be devastated as finishing 4th in the previous WC, 6th this time but none of them, including in the individual ranking, does not make it to Paris ...... I guess they have to rely on Bayard to make it there through the qualification event.

Yeah, thanks. He mentioned in media that this is his last season. And you can't have better moment than finishing your career at the Olympics. Just amazing.

Absolutely outstanding performance by and finally well deserved quota for Paris. I couldn't hold back tears 🥹🥹🥹

I cant believe what just happened. made it to the final and secured a team spot in Paris 🥹🥹🥹🥹. I shed a lot of happy tears for them.
