    Some sports are quite lax about minimum requirements. Judo is another sport where athletes not even listed in the rankings can be selected to compete.
  2. JoshMartini007
    Basically there's a rule that to get a tripartite quota in sport climbing the athlete must have competed at the world championships. Since no one did the quotas will most likely be reallocated (or there will be a rule change).
  3. JoshMartini007
    Where did you find those?
  4. JoshMartini007
    We should still qualify, I mean if we can't beat Sweden then we don't deserve to go to the Olympics
  5. JoshMartini007
    .
  6. JoshMartini007
    The final qualification tournament will have an additional individual quota.
  7. JoshMartini007
    No the one that's suppose to be the South American qualification for laser, laser radial and finn.
  8. JoshMartini007
    Does anyone know the status of the 2019 Copa Brasil? I can't seem to find where the results will appear.
  9. JoshMartini007
    India will be allowed to qualify to the Olympics. Also there will be a separate event to determine the quotas so the performances here don't count.
  10. JoshMartini007
    The number of athletes trying to qualify is a lot larger than the number of athletes trying to win a medal. So I can see there being more pressure for officials to do shady stuff.
  11. JoshMartini007
    There's a lot of push back between the sport federations and South Africa's Olympic Committee over accepting/declining the quotas. I imagine the field hockey federation used FIH's top 20 rule as a way to show that their team had sufficient strength to compete.
  12. JoshMartini007
    The main site has it too.
  13. JoshMartini007
    Also shouldn't South Korea face Singapore? They were the second best team while Singapore should be the seventh placed team. Unless they ignore wins/points and only went with point differential.
  14. JoshMartini007
    Didn't think Afghanistan had it in them. Chinese Taipei is arguably the second weakest entrant (maybe Singapore), but I thought Afghanistan would be clearly weaker than everyone.
  15. JoshMartini007
    Looks like my Myanmar and Nepal prediction fell through, instead it's Tajikistan with a surprise first place finish. Sri Lanka and Bhutan are up there along with the five favourites. On the women's side, Bangladesh is the fifth seed, but will likely have to defeat at least one of India (currently suspended), Iran or Kazakhstan to qualify.
  16. JoshMartini007
    Yeah, ten Asian nations have already qualified. In terms of tripartite nations I would say and have better chances, but it would be nice to see them qualify in their national sport. The favourites seem to be three of but in archery anything could happen, the three previously mentioned tripartite nations plus could pull off the upset.
  17. JoshMartini007
    Sorry, for some reason I thought Kalai was Egyptian... Her only hope would be if Tunisia exchanges quotas.
  18. JoshMartini007
    It's not in their selection policy (to be fair nothing related to football is written on their website) In 2016, there were no additional performance based requirements in football.
  19. JoshMartini007
    No, an athlete qualifies their nation on the first event in which they qualify a quota. Charni can still however, compete in the 10m air pistol as a double starter. Only way for Kalai to compete will either be through the 10m air pistol (assuming she has the MQS) or for Egypt to transfer a quota from another event
  20. JoshMartini007
    Yeah, the rapid fire pistol was one of the events that had no African athletes with MQS
  21. JoshMartini007
    They are still the big favourite, over the past four Asia Sevens Series the only non-Japanese team they lost to was to South Korea in 2017 during the second leg. The nature of the sport and the fact the chasing pack isn't that much weaker means this isn't a near-lock, but Hong Kong would win more often than not.
  22. JoshMartini007
    They finished 9th, but a few stronger nations didn't attend (Philippines, Singapore). At the 2019 Asia Rugby Series they competed in the second division and finished seventh (top division has eight teams).
  23. JoshMartini007
    Hong Kong will be the favourites to qualify, though other nations (China, Sri Lanka and South Korea) all have a chance for an upset. Interesting to see Afghanistan competing. A bunch of teams ahead of them withdrew, but I guess they didn't want an 8-team tournament like they had for the women.
  24. JoshMartini007
    Looks like the men's 10m air pistol schedule has been changed to tomorrow. got the women's 25m pistol quota
  25. JoshMartini007
    Why is the junior world record higher than the world record? Different gun? Quickly looking at the Asian Championships and the Asian record is 252.8 yet the above world record is also shown. Both were set at World Cup events (though the Asian one was done in 2019).
