  1. Here is the canoe sprint qualification system (April 2019) You'll need a PhD to understand it, but the European Games are not a qualification event (the African Games are though)
  2. Yeah, certain injuries are more common on different surfaces in tennis. There's a reason why Federer avoided the French Open for a few years while others try to limit their play on hard courts.
  3. I've never understood the big deal for artificial turf. In tennis they play on different surfaces, you just have to change your game.
  4. It's not too bad. The bigger problem is when they change the rules because what they wrote and what they meant were two different things.
  5. That's what happens when you only have 10 athletes per event, but still want to guarantee continental representation. Combat sports should have a minimum of 16 athletes per event.
  6. Here is a list published by IWF of nations with reductions to the maximum quota and how many doping violations they have (As of May 31st). 1 Male and 1 Female - 31 - 30 - 28 - 23 2 Male and 2 Female - 19 - 16 - 16 - 16 - 15 - 13 - 13 - 12 - 12 - 11 - 10 - 10
  7. Yes, but we won't know who gets it until after the world rankings are published and the qualification tournament has concluded, but basically one man and one woman will qualify to the Olympics from the European Games with priority going to the gold medalist with the highest world ranking.
  8. Correct, the only direct qualifiers for the European Games are archery, karate, shooting and table tennis
  9. Heart break for Japan as Scotland beats them at the last minute. They can still make it to the quarterfinals, but New Zealand needs to crush France by more than 28 points.
  10. Yeah, XV is better if you know what's going on and like strategy, sevens is better if you don't know how the game is played.
  11. I think they've been having funding issues (they didn't participate in the pre-Olympic qualification tournament), add in that nations like Chile, Paraguay and Peru are catching up and there's a realistic chance that Colombia may not even make it to the final qualifier.
  12. Pool A: Pool B: Winner goes to the Olympics, second and third goes to final qualification tournament and the highest rank eligible nation goes to the 2019 Pan American Games (anyone that's not Argentina, Brazil or Peru).
  13. It helps that the world champs are in September-October.
  14. Yeah, I think the European Championship model (bunch of sports all occurring at the same time) is more likely to be successful.
  15. Update, removed above listed nations in athletics and Romania in shooting.
  16. That's usually what happens. Which is why we have Brazil and the United States together. Still don't know how Canada and Colombia ended up in the same group since they are the weakest teams in terms of World Rankings
  17. So that means the Olympic quotas went to
  18. She's quite young, apparently she broke the world junior record.
  19. I imagine they got a great deal on the venue too, since they are essentially guaranteeing the hotel a bunch of booked rooms.
  20. Fencing is one of those sports that you can host it anywhere.
  21. So now China has full quotas in 6/12 individual events and has no quotas only in men's skeet.
  22. Ukraine choked with two below average shots and is eliminated. So China gets double quota (and is eligible to compete in the mixed team event)
  23. Their past stance was not to compete at the games (or be part of the African Union), so I imagine some kind deal was reached between all parties.
