GUAM with a quota 

The Egyptian girl was very close to upset Tunisia and maybe steal one of their quotas but well that was a nice throw at the end.
 
50kg quotas are now confirmed for

Live scores

I couldn't find a site with the live scores...
 
But from the live stream i'm watching:
 
Snatch:
Gold -  Nadezhda Nguen - 72 kg 
Silver -  Melisa Gunes - 68 kg
Bronze -  Anhelina Lomachynska - 67 kg
 

taking a look at the results:
 
50: looks safe, the 2nd quota is between and (much more chance for TUN)
53: direct semifinals: vs and vs . I think Cameroon and Tunisia are safe bets here
57: again direct semifinals: vs and vs , very good chance for Guinea and Tunisia
62: is 100% qualified, and will wrestle for the 2nd quota
68: and are in better position with 1 win. but that's still just one round. remember the 3rd place matters here in this weight because Nigeria most probably will get the World Championship quota.
76: is 99% safe with a fall win, the match between and will determine the 2nd quota.
 
Tunisia has a chance to qualify a full team.

Qualifying Event in Heidelberg
 
The following Athletes swam the national standards this morning in the preliminaries and are qualified for Tokyo, unless there will be two faster Germans in this event:
 
100m Breaststroke:
 
Fabian Schwingenschlögl  59,20
 
200m Butterfly:
 
David Thomasberger  1:55,51 (NR)
 
The event, which was originally planned for Würzburg, is FINA approved and the first of four German meetings in April, where German swimmers can get the standards.

Khadija Stuns Sambou, No quota for Senegal in women's wrestling. 

i sincerely hope that north korea will be present at the tokyo olympic games 2020, it would sadden me a lot

Tomorrows prediction 
 
50kg -  , 
 
53kg - , /  (51:49)
 
57kg -  
 
62kg -  - both athlethes capable of Olympic Medal, Marwa trying for her 2nd Olympic medal at Tokyo. 
Outside chance for Cameroon 
 
68kg - ,  
Small Outside chance for Tunisia 
 
 
76kg  - , 
 
Small chance for Ivory Coast too. 
 
Such a shame that Yvette Zie of Burkina Faso isn't here, could have been an easy qualification. 
 
 

We don't know yet.
 
Probably FINA is desperately trying to find a replacement host, so that the competition may take place early June at the latest.
 
All I can think now, as most European, Asian & North American countries still have lockdowns and Mexico is vetoed from hosting aquatics competition after that shameful 2017 decision, is Russia; but again, IOC would not encourage that decision unless strictly necessary.

I have my vacation during the Olympics

I just don't have a job  (well, still hoping to have when we get to summer, but we'll see)

Fina now aims to find another venue for the World Cup competition at a later date.

@Benolympique French women's team is likely going to Tokyo 

it's really hard to judge based on the current ranking, it can change big time after just one event. but Kingue-Matam looks good. most guys above him are from China, Indonesia and Uzbekistan. he can even qualify in top 8. if not he can be the best from Europe
 
the same goes to the French girl at 49. most weightlifters above her will be removed from the list. and the other girl at 81 is already in the qualification zone as the best European. I believe all 3 of them will qualify at the end but nothing is guaranteed.
 
btw it's highly possible that North Korea withdraws from the Asian Championship and therefore none of their athletes will be eligible to qualify. that will make it even easier for the French weightlifters.

in 3 weights with 2 groups of 3 wrestlers, we know the semifinals
 
60: vs /// vs
77: vs /// vs
87: vs /// vs
 
--
67: looks very safe, the second quota is between and
97: 100% qualified, 99%
130: looks safe, it will be between and

It's about the weight they lift, not about the competition's name. not about their ranking in the competition. only the weight matters and they will receive points based on that. they have a formula to count points based on the result.
 
and no Euro is not the last event on the calendar. beside other continental championships, there is an event in Colombia scheduled for 10-14 May open to athletes from the other continents. (I know a cancellation is possible but as of now that's still on the calendar)
 
the qualification is done when it's done everywhere, that's when we can take a look at the ranking. and the date for that is 31 May

looking at the Greco brackets, there is no direct elimination because there are max 6 wrestlers in each weight which means luck doesn't matter here and they have to actually beat the rest to qualify.
 
60: easy to say and . but TUN can do something. the MAR guy is also a former olympian but no chance really.
67: without Egypt who is already qualified I say and .
77: it will be between MAR, EGY and ALG. the Morocco guy is quite experienced but old, if he is fit I would say and
87: again between TUN, EGY and ALG. I say and
97: once again TUN, EGY and ALG. I pick and
130: is a sure thing. the other 3 are more or less in the same level I go with
 
no chance for other countries unless they have some naturalized wrestlers I'm not aware of.

*already qualified to the Olympic Games via previous events/NF decision

Not only in diving, probably one of the few disciplines where the country is expected to medal, but also it would meant suspension for the Mexican artistic swimmers and the 1-3 hopefuls in swimming.

There is a separate thread for that African/Oceania event. I will write something about it there but I think Egypt, Tunisia and Algeria will collect everything. Morocco also has a chance for 77kg. no chance for the rest.

Egypt and  Tunisia will win the most quotas followed by Algeria . Even South Africa can have a couple. Keep an eye on the American Samoa wrestlers just in case some suprise happens, not likely, but it's round robin followed by semis . Since it's Greco Roman of course it's not that likely still would be nice to watch them wrestle tomorrow in around 9 hours from now. 
 
P. S : Olympic Quota for Namibia in 60kg and Morocco in 77kg possible .

is doing very good job, they started vaccination just 5 days ago and they already vaccinated almost 50% of their population!
