Which olympic events would have less than 21 NOCs "supporting" them?

- 3 weeks Olympics and more quotas - qualification systems in all sports mainly based on rankings of 2 years of "world cups" + world and continental championships. Top 8 athletes guaranteed to qualify with a limit of 4 per country. Heavy use of rankings also in team sports. Less knock out tournaments. - require every international federation to set a clear rulebook, "code of points", "example cases" to be admitted to the Olympics- there must be nearly always a consensus between officials on who is the winner, how an action should be judged, etc. In general: - less amateurism in running world-level competitions; - stricter antidoping rules for elite athletes

It's also official that Eszter Muhari is qualified in women's epee, replacing Anna Kun.

Fiorentina has unconsistent defenders and attackers who can't shoot, guys like Ikonè and Kouamè should have done track and field, not a sport with a ball involved.

Those who don't complain of robberies in boxing usually complain harder when it's one of their compatriot's turn.

Teodosiu. No announcements from him or Romanian Fencing so far.

Anna Bashta, women's sabre and Alexis Bayard, men's epee, also confirmed by the respective Fencing federations. Only 1 spot left. I suppose a universality spot given to a woman to keep gender balance

So men's foil has reached the maximum of 37 entries.

Leave it be, for many in NED we are either completely unorganized or run by the "maFFia", we're lucky when they choose the first option.

Laughable. Boyfriend and coach who was an elite fencer for many years (and certainly knows antidoping regulations) who, just after retiring, willingly purchased banned substance because why not, and then contaminated her through sex. Surely to make it more believable Thibus at least will break up with him and sue him for putting her at risk and causing moral and financial damage. . Otherwise someone might think that she convinced him to take the blame.

Arianna Bridi once again (as in 2021-22) not deemed fit to compete after the last medical checkup, due to heart problems...the spot in the 10km will be taken by another Italian.

A javelin thrower. Unlikely to win a medal.

Tested "over ten times" and acting like it's a huge number...given that a few of those are surely in-competition, that probably means she missed at least 30% of the out-of-competition ones, but that sounds much worse.

why? The only requirement I read is having 10 points in an event counting for the Olympic ranking. It doesn't say that the points must be obtained in Sprint/Keirin.

USA Fencing announced the full roster fo the Olympics

If you check the list of qualifiers on world archery website, France already got the quota at the World Championships (in women's by finishing top 3 so one more quota went to the final qualifiers, in men's as host by competing with 3 archers- this was the only requirement to be given the host quota after the WCh). So it's the same case of Korea.

Not empty at all, it's always at full capacity. The stand behind one of the goals is closed this season because they tore it down and just rebuilt it larger.

any news about this case?

Very good news, well done Wierer.

Camila Giorgi (tennis). No announcement but she declared herself retired to the International Tennis integrity Agency.

Confirmed as a serious injury - ruptured ACL.

Nah, it's only who did it first.

A very poor start list for the general classification...securing Pogacar's presence might have worked against the organizers since anyone else already knew they couldn't win barring incidents.
