    The alternate doesn't count unless they are activated

    That's because Sri Lanka by far has the highest participant rate of all tripartite nations. They have so far attempted to qualify in 100 events while second place among tripartite nations are Kuwait and Malta which are tied with 59 events each.

    What makes you so sure Guyana will get the spot? The three highest ranked tripartite nations are Men Women

    The Latin American qualifier begins tomorrow. There will be two stages for the singles. Stage 1: Single elimination, finalists qualify Stage 2: Losers are reseeded in a new single elimination bracket, men's finalist and women's winner qualify The mixed doubles will be a single elimination tournament with the winner qualifying Brazil is not allowed to compete in the singles event while Puerto Rico can qualify 1 woman (and 2 men). Both nations can participate in the mixed doubles qualifier.

    Unlikely, our highest ranked person is Kelly Fitzsimmons who is currently 68th, but she likely needs to break into the top 30 in order to have a chance.

    It makes sense in events where only 1 or 2 athletes reached the OQT standard, but it get tricky in events with more athletes. Especially when you consider that most of those OQT standards were done back in 2019. Then you have the whole choosing athletes for the relays.

    If I understand everything, the quota reallocations Archery (mixed team)- ( gets Mongolia's men's singles quota) Athletics (men and women's marathon) - N/A Boxing (women's flyweight) - Diving - Next best athlete at the 2021 World Cup Gymnastics (Women's Artistic) - Shooting (men and women's 10m air pistol) - Highest ranked nation without quotas Table Tennis (women's team) - Wrestling (women's -53kg) - & (women's -62kg) - (I think gets Ukraine's European quota)

    Maybe they are banking on that? Though that's a risky game to play on an athlete with a chance (albeit a slight one) for an Olympic medal.

    Did Oman sneak someone on their 49er boat on the second day, they essentially returned to their day 1 performances.

    Huge respect for Midana, I thought his age has finally caught up to him, but he proved me wrong and earned his spot by defeating decent opponents. Even though he's in an easier to qualify continent, four Olympics as a wrestler is very difficult to do
  11. JoshMartini007
    So Bhaker is a double starter in pistol allowing one quota to be transferred to the 50m rifle. Just wondering why Moudgil is in the mixed rifle event, does Chandela not want to participate?
  12. JoshMartini007
    Yeah, Oman really turned it around after a very poor first day.

    Hoping for to grab their first quota tomorrow, though looking at the brackets they will definitely have to earn it. In the -57kg Iuna may have to go through 3/4 2019 African Games medalists while in the -65kg Cumba likely faces the 2020 African Championship silver medalist as his first opponent (on the other hand, that top half bracket is quite weak). Their 2016 Olympians will also have a tough path.

    I just looked at the matches for tomorrow's women's freestyle. The only event to have a bracket (-53kg) literally has the gold and silver medalists of the 2019 African Games AND the 2020 African Championships facing off in the first round.
  15. JoshMartini007
    Nothing too surprising, the depth in Greco-Roman in Africa is more shallow than Freestyle
  16. JoshMartini007
    Maybe Speed + Combined Boulder/Lead to match with the 2024 Olympics?
  17. JoshMartini007
    The quota is based on the April Rankings so we technically need to wait...
  18. JoshMartini007
    The qualification document specifies "sprint" and "slalom" athletes in their respective documents so I'm leaning no. Are there athletes which compete in both disciplines (like we see in cycling)? ICF would be more receptive to the idea if athletes exist rather than trying to Trojan horse someone into the other discipline.
  19. JoshMartini007
    I know team sports claim to have minimum requirements, but the only sport I've seen to have done this is field hockey (Greece in 2004 and Brazil in 2016). Even handball let Australia compete in 2000. I guess we'll see how low their requirements are once a nation like Qatar hosts (especially on the women's side).
  20. JoshMartini007
    I'd give him a good chance at grabbing the tripartite quota
  21. JoshMartini007
    Besides basketball (which only gives two spots to Europe and Pan America) and football (which only does continental qualifiers) none of the other team sports gives more than 1 continental spot to each continent. Other than guaranteeing Europe more quotas, handball doesn't strike as a sport that needs to do that. The issue is handball is very Euro-centric which is why you see more European teams at the Olympics, when was the last time more than two non-European nations finished in the top 10 at the world championships?
  22. JoshMartini007
    Not really, we saw Bolivia and Peru newly attend while Colombia did not. The only reason it's on the Pan Am program is because of its Olympic status.
  23. JoshMartini007
    Shouldn't they give the Nacra 17 quota to the other Tunisian boat? They did win all eight races in which both boats participated.
  24. JoshMartini007
    Canoe slalom doesn't have much depth in Pan America. It was the last discipline to be added to the Pan American Games (in 2015).
  25. JoshMartini007
    Archery can have as many mixed team participants as they want because in the end it won't add any more time to the schedule. Only the top 16 from the qualification round advance to the actual tournament. For table tennis, additional matches would have to be played.
