Glenn Howard, one of the greatest curler in history (though some users on this forum might know him better as the brother of 2006 Olympic gold medalist Russ Howard) has announced his retirement. Glenn is a seventeen time Ontario champion, a four time Canadian champion, a four time World champion and was the runner-up at the 2009 Olympic trials.

actually was very close to qualifying in women's basketball last Olympics, so there is definitively a foundation there that just doesn't exist in handball.

Maybe she can represent in LA? She does have close connections to the country, being married to a very famous Moldovan Olympic athlete.

And the women's quota will be between and

are in deep, deep trouble against

If this her best opportunity to attack the government she’s gonna get demolished in 2027 xD

Jennifer Jones is a great person, by all accounts, and for my money the greatest curling player of her generation on the women's side. Really extraordinary career.

Probably still a bit tipsy from all the Champagne. (I really don't know how much the Canadian sprint team cares about the results this week-end now that they all qualified for the Olympics tbh)

will have a full track cycling team!

Can we have a disqualification at some point? This - race is tedious xD

That part isn’t really relevant, Canada was guaranteed to finish above France by virtue of losing to and having a walkover over

Bit of an anti-climax but gets the last women’s team sprint quota after withdraws due to an injury.

He cannot compete in the singles event unless he qualifies in single. If he qualifies from the East Asian qualifier then his athlete quota from mixed doubles gets re-allocated to the singles world ranking. If he qualifies from the singles world ranking then his mixed doubles athlete quota gets re-allocated to the singles world ranking. can qualify up to two men's singles athletes, if they qualify two men's singles athletes and none of them are Wong then Hong Kong simply has two men's singles athletes and a different male athlete in the mixed doubles.

An NOC with a qualified team and a qualified mixed doubles pair must use a member of their team in the mixed doubles. So for example, qualifying in mixed doubles will cause a men's and women's singles quota to be re-allocated. The system seems designed to have most of the mixed doubles athlete quotas get re-allocated to the singles draw, the only scenario where they aren't is when a player only plays in mixed doubles.

It gets re-allocated to the singles world ranking. Mixed doubles field is capped at 16.
