Only James Guy booked a ticket tonight, so we have 19 guaranteed athletes. Luke Greenbank is also now on priority 5 with his 200m Backstroke. Let's say those 4 will be included and we would have a team of 23 (except Tobias Robinson). They could easily say "we're done" but it would be a bit odd I guess. I still believe they will take both relays, or at least ask them to do a tryout. If they decide to take 30, those are my bet for the 7 extra, kind-of-on-order I think there are 4 safer bets because either they won their races, or they would form relays Kieran Bird - M 400m Freestyle (OQT), not only he has an OQT and won the event, he could be a relay option, with his 6th on 4x200m Freestyle Angharad Evans W 100m Breaststroke (OQT), not only she won but she could form the 4x100m medley Eva Okaro - W 4x100m Freestyle (2nd- relay not qualified) Freya Anderson - W 4x100m Freestyle (3rd- relay not qualified) she could easily compete at W 100m Freestyle, W 200m Freestyle and she was injured Then I guess they could take these 3 to be options for relays, and 2 of them are big names James Wilby - M 100m Breaststroke (he could even participate in the individual with his OQT and would be a back-up for 4x100m medley) Jacob Whittle - M 4x100m 5th Swimmer? Jack McMillan - M 400m Freestyle (OQT), and he also would be a great option to swim in the heats for 4x200m Freestyle

Do you think is there any chance they will forfait their medley or freestyle quota?

tbf it would probably not have made any difference... USA would still be behind Venezuela (by far) and as Venezuela was not top4 they would not get the quota.

I just rewatched the point and it was totally absurd. Not speaking as a Brazilian, but as someone with a bit of knowledge on fencing. Several mistakes here (Zhang's knee in front of the foot, very poorly executed flèche... and he not only falls during the touch, but his back feet also lands first, so he does not reverse correctly...) He could even get a 2nd yellow card for that which would give the point to Camargo. I think it is impossible for Zhang to lose its quota, but hopefully FIE would acknowledge the referee mistake, the same way they did with Kharlan at WC last year and guarantee Camargo an extra quota.

yeah, but if the Frenchwomen opts for 81 (which will probably happen), then France will have quotas on 59 and 81, right? The 2 Host Nation quotas would be then at 71 and either 59/81 (IWF will choose) and Universality quotas would go to 49, +81 and 59/81. I think so, at least lol

Not official, but from my calculations LIAO Guifang Olivia Lynn REEVES Angie Paola PALACIOS DAJOMES Loredana-Elena TOMA Vanessa SARNO PALOMAR Neama Said Fahmi SAID Mari Leivis SANCHEZ PERINAN CHEN Wen-Huei ()Siuzanna VALODZKA Marie Josephe FEGUE Jacqueline NICHELE As Fegue will probably get the quota on 86 (or even as Host Nation quota), the 11th would get the quota. Joy Ogobonne EZE did an amazing job on Group C to lift 239kg total. On the waiting list, both with 238kg. I think China will not accept this one in the end Amanda DA COSTA SCHOTT Yeniuska MIRABAL FERIA and then, with 236kg (but I guess she can not get an universality quota, because this category will be a HN, right?)

North Macedonia could have its first Olympic quota!

For now Oceania has 4 men and 2 women with the quota, but New Zealand has a good shot of qualifying the women directly so would get a 5th male quota. Therefore, women from Oceania, come!!! (or not, because it could help Brazil to go with an extra athlete hahaha) We will have a Tahiti Open, I imagine many pacific countries will show up and get the 10 quotas

But wait, is the 49kg quota good? I tried to find anything in the Documents regarding that but could not find it

So sad to see the Dutch Monk out https://olympics.com/en/news/tyrone-sterkenburg-buddhist-monk-model-wrestling-influencer

That's where I'm not fully clear. Let's say that France has a quota on 59kg and 81kg. They will choose a host nation of 71kg most probably. If I'm not mistaken So I think @MHSNis right because IWF would have to choose which category between 81 and 59 to give a ranking quota and which to give universality. Do you think they would look at who would get the rankings quota and who would get the Universality quota (Malta or Lebanon?) and decide?

So, in the 59kg, the 11th athlete (Taylor Wilkins) would get the quota, right?

to put in objective terms, universality quotas are for countries with less than an average of 8 athletes in individual sports on the last 2 Olympics.

So, please walk me through the French case. They currently have one athlete in the 59kg and Fegue who now would qualify both in 71kg and 81kg. 2 French participated in 59kg, Vicky Graillot is slotted for 71kg and Fegue is going to compete in 76kg. First of all, Fegue has to choose, right? I guess she would go to 81kg so Vicky Graillot can be selected on 71kg, along someone from 59kg. If my thinking proves correct, then French would use HC from 59kg and 71kg and Universality would go to 49kg, 81kg and +81kg? by the way, the universality slots would go to the eligible athletes with higher ranking or not necessariy? thanks

no Universality quotas???

Swimswam released a list with 9 men and 3 women. Besided the 10 listed above (albeit the number 9 on the title lol) it includes Kim Jihoon (M) and Hur Yeonkyng (W for the mixed relay) Not really sure why they would not take a 4th to the 4x200m freestyle (KIM Younghyeon). Who would be the 4th?

hey guys, I'm pretty sure Portugal lost its dinghy quota, according to the World Sailing document!

I don't think it was posted here, but last year World Triathlon announced some of the first qualifiers. Matt Hauser Manoel Messias Csongor Lehmann Alex Yee (video) Beth Potter Lasse Luhrs Laura Lindemann (video) Lisa Tertsch Nina Eim Tim Hellwig Rachel Klamer Morgan Pearson Taylor Knibb (video)

I wonder if there would be anything preventing from 3 (or even 2) athletes from the same country

thank you so much! i'm assuming on the 58 is ? or one could be ?

yeah and officially they were not supposed to be a part of the team, unless they were officially changed before... at list in Tokyo was like that! but some countries competed with 4 athletes, so i don't know much hahaha

but can she get a minimum while she was competing for another country and transfer to Poland? And her change of nationality needs to be approved on the june (or july?) EC-IOC meeting right?

yeah... the main issue now for fencing, I guess, is to allow officially 4 fencers per team as they had during the rotation system - glad it's over, obviously. Based on Tokyo results, the 4th athlete CAN in fact join the team, but somehow they are not treated officially as Olympians as I understand (I'm not entirely sure on that!). We could obviously envision one competition with 48 athletes on the draw, but not sure how that's realistic.

Have no idea why they are identified as EUROPE, but as far as I know both live in Mexico
