Exactly, athletes quotas is the main concern, IOC wants to cap the entries but keeping unversality. my personal feeling that IOC doesn't care so much, revenue is important of course but just feeling bad for athletes in other sports who deserve to be olympians

When I am looking at the Olympic program I have a lot of questions regarding medal distribution between sports. As an example: Rowing has 14 medals, Canoeing 16 and sailing 10 (this group altogether 40 medals) While some other sports are having much less medals (Modern Pentathlon 2, Triathlon 3, and something like Weightlifting the quotas reduced to 10 medals only now) On the other hand some popular sports are fighting to get included each cycle like Cricket, squash, Karate and Baseball. Would it be more fair for wider audience to get some reasonable cuts from existing sports and include couple more as permanent By the way I don’t have any problems with Rowing, sailing etc, but I feel the allocated medal are a bit excessive compared to others.

Two Egyptians and two Australians qualified to paris via African & Oceania Championships 🏆 Malak Ismail 🇪🇬 Ahmed ElGendy 🇪🇬 Genevieve van Rensburg🇦🇺 Rhys Lanskey 🇦🇺

As usual, no media or any pages following up the results of this direct qualification tournment ..if someone can find out a link or live score tool that would be great. UIPM website and app not covering Egyptian PM and UIPM facebook page no mention at all Oceania website just some news about the participants

also 9 to 15 Sep is the african qualification tournment in

Some general observations: still showing determined performance and still one of the top teams men and women great women team but the men team needs huge boosting just unlucky this tournament, still favourable for future world and Olympic medals the strongest men team so far, epic laser run between three team mates, women team is average no longer strong team, they will be in olympics but not that strong anymore a big question mark, very bad performance from great names, needs huge improvement and they have 1 year till the Olympics seems average team, can’t see them on the Olympic podium men team needs more fencing quality, women team is average very strong women team but consistency between displines needs improvement, men team is average not this Olympic I presume maybe the next one if MP still there 😉 very good team men and women, Mariana put too much effort in the first 800m laser run and she paid it in a hard way, still dangerous team if they keep their fencing performance up one of the strongest men and women teams, but if they are not 1st or 2nd before laser run they will not make the podium what do you reckon?

I think 9 qoutas now to olympic ranking, host nation quota already allocated whem Marie Oteiza qualified

great laser run for Kerenza ..the two italians were amazing too ..feeling bad for Mariana ...last shooting was horrible

seems like the good ones are relatively good compared to the disaster ones ..all rides have penalties till now

in women competition I have more than 6 to go for, very difficult: Elena Micheli Laura Asadauskaite Mariana Arceo Michelle Gulyas Jessica Varley Ilke Ozyuksel I can add more Actually would be much easier to predict who wouldn't win this competion, much shorter list

we will see very tight Men's final, Equistrian will decide the winner for sure. my guess would go for: Woongtae Jo Choong Mo ElGendy with potential challenges from: Emiliano Hernandez Ahmed ElGendy Martin Vlach

Three Egyptians to the final .. do you expect to see any on the podium if Equestrian rounds are ok I am expecting at least one

Seems you are right mate .. I like her career and would be a very sad end 😢

You remember our discussion earlier my friend.. Elodie did a horrible laser run and got eliminated from semifinal despite she was 1st .. Maria also the same .. french team needs a huge boost before Olympics

makes sense ...means that IOC day by day full schedule requires some updates as it mis-leading : the following are qquoted from the day by day schedule: 8th Aug : Modern pentathlon: 1100-1730: M/W fencing ranking round 9th Aug: Modern pentathlon: 1300-1900: M swimming, fencing bonus round, riding 10th Aug: Modern pentathlon: 0930-1530: W swimming, fencing bonus round, riding; 1730-2000: M laser run final 11th Aug: Modern pentathlon: 1100-1330: W laser run final very badly written

anybody knows what would be the format for Olympics? this is the schedule Date Event Time (ET) August 8 Men's Fencing Ranking Round Women's Fencing Ranking Round 5a-11:30a August 9 Men's Semifinal 7a-1p August 10 Women's Semifinals Men's Final 3:30a-9:30a 11a-1:30p August 11 Women's Final 5a-7:30a but Men semi final on IOC website is Fencing bonus round, swimming and riding ...(doesn't say if 18th would qualify to final or all 36) then final is Laser Run the day after!! ..how come this would help with the 90 min easy follow format ?? ..am I missing something?

Thanks Mate .... seems like the WCH format is different from WCup format then ..much appreicated.

Today is the women african nation championship final between & in the final for the first time since 2003 and beat host nation (the champion in last 3 editions) however there is no direct qualification as african champion but it will add boosting points to nation ranking till now 22 while 34

You maybe right my friend, last W CH there are no riding events in semi finals, however in the recent world cups and world cup final there was riding, don't know which format they will adopt this time I agree with you Malak and Salama are the most complete athletes for ..Haydy usually had troubles in laser run, she improved her run a little bit but still her shooting is too slow

Exactly same tactic, Jakob was focusing on beating world record and didn't prepare well for a tactic race

my guess for the final: 3X 2X 1 X & could qualify only if the made good fencing round sorry of course Equestrian can change everything up side down

I think was a bug or mistake, Ismail qualified while Amira Kandil failed to qualify from team

Rumors linked Salah with Ittahad, let’s wait and see. Personally I hope not

Men Relay Results 1- 1467 Points 2- 1463 Points 3- 1462 Points Epic finish from the Egyptians, Moutaz Mohamed & Ahmed Hamed, Moutaz had a great final 200 m sprint to claim gold Sam Curry and Guy Anderson finished 8th with 1382 Points
