Just another disaster of an event.
Considering we already have so many athlete quotas I don't think our depth was deep enough to qualify 5-6 men or a 6th woman kayak athlete. It's a shame we couldn't get the men's C2 quota, but the C1 quota is a nice consolation prize.

What are the chances for Kaloyana Nalbantova to qualify for Women's singles?
She currently holds the last (non-continental) qualification spot, edging out Ireland's Darragh by 33 points. I don't know if either of them (or Hungary's Sandorhazi) are competing this week so it'll come to end. Additionally, she needs to hope New Zealand's Shaunna Li doesn't break into the top 250 (currently 259) or else she will get the continental quota (though if she did, New Zealand may decline the quota).
On the opposite side, Australia must select which two events between men's singles, women's singles, women's doubles and mixed doubles will get the continental quota, the others will be reallocated to the next highest ranked nation so even if Bulgaria gets passed she might get the quota if Australia doesn't choose women's singles.

The Olympic quota will be decided today, correct?
Unfortunately the result page isn't updating for me...

Badminton rankings will be finalized next week.

apparently the second quota in vault between IRN and AUS comes to this question, do they count the Pan-American quota winner in the World Cup ranking or not ?
Audrys Nin Reyes won a quota at the Pan-Am Games but from what I read that should be counted after the World Cup, which means he is still eligible for a World Cup quota and therefore his results should be counted in the ranking? in this case Olfati qualifies. but if they remove him from the ranking, then Bacueti wins the quota
any thoughts ?
It's a bit of a mess. The way the document is written makes it seems that each criteria should be given priority over the following criteria, but at the same time the document doesn't explicitly say so (and usually they do) which means the quotas are awarded chronologically without any priority.
In a perfect world I would say points should count at the World Cup, but I think it won't. I don't have the rankings available, would he qualify through the world cup if his points counted?

Great day for China and India after a poor first day. North Korea also picks up three quotas, but still stings about losing the -50kg quota. They'll have a chance at the final world qualifier.
So the overall women's quotas going into the final world qualifier are as follows
- 6
- 4
- 4
- 3
- 3
- 3
- 1
Relative to 2020, Kazakhstan hasn't had much luck so far while Mongolia may go from having a full team to half the size.
- Adriano and Roamingrover86

It's still unofficial, but it only makes 2020 that much better.

So going into the world qualifier the men's freestyle quotas for Asia are:
- 5
- 4
- 3
- 3
- 2
- 2
- 1
Currently no men's freestyle quotas for China and India. In 2020 they qualified in three events each.
- Roamingrover86 and Wumo

Not looking good for Australia.
Also a 90+14 goal in the Qatar/Jordan game (btw it was 2-1). Was there a lot of stoppage or were the refs waiting for Qatar to score

Bulgaria's best times in sports were at the turn of the 1980s and 1990s: in 1988 you won 35 medals, including 10 gold (I don`t count 1980 due to the boycott of many west countries). Later, until the beginning of the 21st century, you won a dozen or so medals in every games and suddenly there was a great crisis from Beijing 2008. Why? In theory, after joining the EU, the country should develop and become richer, which means there will also be more money for sports. The same problem concerned Romania but I see that they are slowly rising up, e.g. in rowing.
For nations like Bulgaria, sport investment in the 70s-90s was due to national pride and a rallying cry by the government to lower the amount of dissident despite not making the lives of the people much better.
When a country decides they want to invest in infrastructure and making the lives of the people better then luxury things like sport investment takes a hit. Once luxury can be affordable then sport investment goes up.
That's why you see countries that are actually developing tend to do poorly in sport rather than overcompensating and looking flashy.

I'm also surprised, qualified athletes actually made the trip to Brazil. If there was a World Cup event in Brazil in the coming weeks it would be one thing, but now they need to fly back to Europe for events in May (or back to their home nation). Flying to South America is quite expensive.
Seems like a waste of money considering they have two more World Cup events to practice before the Olympics.

qualifies in men's badminton singles
I think there are two more weeks before things are final.
With that said, I don't think Sri Lanka (along with El Salvador and Myanmar) will miss out.

The final ranking should be published on April 30th

Yup, you are rigth. That's what happens for trusting wikipedia Only 1 quota in ILCA.
Howewer, it should be two in IQFOIL, no? Cause I was trying to look how wikipedia could have put two there, and I found this part:
Since the woman's IQFoil in the African regatta and the men's one in the Oceanian one werent allocated... it should go to the Developing Nations Programe, no?
You are correct. However, does this adds another complexity, does the 49er, 49erFX & Nacra17 have eligible nations?
Going by this document they do, but they don't have athletes in the emerging nations program.
Hopefully, World Sailing provides more clarity soon.

And now, for Emerging Nations Programe.
If not qualified, the best placing in each event of the following NOCs would get a quota according to the qualification process:
I think there's only one quota in each event or has this changed?

If GB win only 13 Golds I will be shocked, and honestly same with Australia, I could see them near that target in just Swimming.
Yeah, unfortunately for these types of services, their model puts a lot of weight on the last world championships. For swimming so many people missed the 2024 edition (as expected) that the prediction is skewed. Since Australia depends on swimming for many of its medals, they are going to be severely underestimated in this model.
GraceNote would be better off to either combine the times of the last two championships or even disregard 2024 and only use 2023.

Iraq lost their opening match against Thailand so things aren't looking good for them.
South Korea and Japan struggled in their wins against UAE and China.
