    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?

    For two reasons: 1, For internal fairness. Imagine you are the champion of 59kg left unselected, but your teammate 49kg is merely a silver medalist but selected. You will definitely feel unfair and it’s not good for the team atmosphere. Real champions should always prioritize the selection regardless of rivals’ attendance.
     
    2, You just never know if North Korea will successfully lobby IOC or IWF for a wild card, maybe only one category per gender. I personally think it possible. No one can guarantee anything until the OG begins.
  8. Thanks
    Pasolini reacted to Vic Liu in Weightlifting IWF World Cup 2024   
    This compulsory world cup will be served as Chinese internal trials. There is no clear quantitive method for trials but I personally sum up as follows. For men's side, whichever 3 categories winning the golds will go to OG, if winning 4 golds or less than 3 golds then comparing the winning/losing margin. For women's side, 81kg and 81kg+ will be (most probably) selected if winning the golds. For 49kg, 59kg and 71kg whichever winning over North Korea will be selected. If no categories or more than 2 categories winning over North Korea, then comparing the winning/losing margin.

    I was trying to figure out how the heats are going to look like in Teahupoo, with my friend @Pasolini. ISA has announced the seed chosen, but they aren't so clear about how this is going to work, especially about the competition format. So, I did this simulation using the same format used in Tokyo. For men, I am considering Bryan Perez, and for women Candelaria Resano as the selected surfers for universiality spots. It it changes, then the heats would change a little bit.

    1. Yes, it's valid (like Tsimanouskaya - we have this kind of experiance).
    2. She can start with our nationality abroad since 20 june (but she must be approved as you said but via WA meeting
     
    Then her mandatory waiting period to represent her new country ends

    The next step will be the decision of the special World Athletics panel responsible for changing the national colors. We don't know when he'll get back together. Of course, we will lobby on this matter and we will do everything to ensure that Maria can start in the Polish Championships at the end of June. If this is handled smoothly, we will see her at the Olympics in Paris. She already has the minimum - explains Tomasz Majewski, vice-president of the Polish Athletics Association and head of the Olympic mission.

    All these complaints but what if next time Italy/France etc. fails to qualify a team and the 2nd Italian/French fencer takes the spot from the 1st Greek or similar...in the above mentioned case for Rio 2016, a Swiss won the European QT, if the 2nd Italian, Navarria, had been allowed to take part there's a good chance she would have taken the spot. i bet that then that fencer would complain that the system hurts smaller fencing nations.
     
    Fencers and NFs knew that similar cases of top fencers missing the Games have happened and could have happened again, but noone in the last years made a reasonable proposal to change the qualification system- the only one that gained some support by other smaller countries was Sweden with their idiotic proposal of limiting team competition to 4 teams and individual competition to 1 fencer per NOC (and even the IOC said that proposal was shitty). In that case, a lot more of cases like the one of Georgiadou would happen. A small curiosity: the FIE Interim President and head of the working group in charge of proposing changes to the Olympic qualification system is Greek.

    Portugal lost its quota, as it was won by Vasileia Karachaliou. Probably Greece did not let her go.
     
    Therefore Finland got a quota from the 2023 World Championships and Israel got the quota from Finland.

    In judo,  Jessica Klimkait has won bronze medals at the last two World Championships in women’s 57kg, and is #2 in the OQR (approximately 2700 points ahead of #3 Gjakova) but due to the one judoka per NOC rule there’s a possibility that she might not even qualify. Right now, she’s in a fierce internal selection battle with Christa Deguchi, who’s the reigning World Champion, and current #1 in the OQR (approximately 1500 points ahead of #2 Klimkait)
     
    Judo Canada has yet to select their athlete though, so they could still pick Klimkait over Deguchi. 
     
    Judo Canada Olympic Selection Criteria
    Highest Finish at 2022 Worlds (1 pt) - Klimkait
    Highest Finish at 2023 Worlds (2 pts) - Deguchi
    Highest Finish at 2024 Worlds (2 pts) - TBD
    Olympic Ranking (2 pts) - likely will be Deguchi

    Pasolini reacted to Makedonas in Fencing Qualification to Summer Olympic Games Paris 2024   
    Our top two fencers are in the top 5 but our third girl is ranked 147 and then after that our next girl is 227. We are not a big fencing country, so it's actually a miracle that we have two girls somehow in the top 5. We have Kontochristopoulou in the women's foil ranked 86. No one else in any weapon or gender is top 100 (special shout out though to 18 yo Garyfallou who is ranked 102 in the women's foil ).
     
    The sport has grown since 2004 slowly I guess. I mean, I don't personally know anyone who has ever competed in fencing even at an amateur/recreational level unlike other sports, so I can't speak much about it, but since 2004 we had Vougiouka, Gkountoura, and Georgiadou all very successful, so the federation must be doing something right because for decades we won no medals and rarely qualified any fencers to the Olympics.
     
    As @phelps said, it is very hard to qualify as a European team.
     
    Our team made a serious effort the last few years and are ranked 12th which is much better than they were before this Olympic cycle but still they are very far from the top 5/6, and let's not forget this is without Russia who won gold at in Tokyo in the team event!
     
    Georgiadou seems like she will stay on until Los Angeles at least, she will be 37 yo. Gkountoura will be 31 so it's not a problem for her. The issue is finding a third fencer, though 15 yo Kourousi and 21 yo Mavrikaki have had some promising results (especially Kourousi for her age) so hopefully we can get a "decent" third sabre fencer and make a push to qualify for Los Angeles.
     
    I was saying for the past few years we should try to bring Vougiouka out of retirement, she was top 5 or so for some years and retired after Rio at 30 yo which is not that old in fencing, but it obviously never happened for Tokyo or Paris so I can't see it happening for Los Angeles, the more that time passes the less likely a comeback will be...
