Looks like they are playing catch-up after a horrible Asian qualifier.

The refugee team has qualified its first athlete, Kimia Alizadeh in taekwondo (women's -57kg)

In women's cycling both a Russian and Belarussian will compete so I imagine it's fine.

I think Germany is good at this bobsleigh thing

Mostly karate and table tennis You can see the schedule here

There's a good chance all or almost all of the events at the Oceania qualifier will be reallocated, especially with New Zealand not contributing. At the Pacific Games, they barely had enough competitors and that's without the athlete limitation. Even at a best case scenario, the following nations competed at the Pacific Games: On paper all of the events could be eligible if the nations work together. In reality, the Pacific nations will probably want to avoid Australia as much as possible so we could have a situation where Australia's chosen events are not eligible while the other events are full of Pacific nations. That's probably the opposite of what World Taekwondo wanted. As mentioned before, it's not difficult to figure out 3/4 events Australia will choose (unless they decide to play mind games and participate in weaker events so that they can qualify).

for the men's skeet quota

Isn't Josefa Rodriguez still eligible or did they do the shoot-out? Edit: Looks like she didn't make the final

Tennis was always going to allow them to compete if they were allowed to do so.

It's a step in the right direction, but needing to be in the top 6 is quite a high bar. Of course, if I had my way, I'd bump taekwondo (and boxing and wrestling for that matter) to 24 athletes per event.

Taekwondo needs to remove the 2 men/2 women limit and just make it 1 athlete per event. You shouldn't be competing against athletes from different events in order to qualify to the Olympics. It's the same thing for weightlifting.

I think tennis is the only direct qualifier, the others just provide world ranking points or athletics/swimming marks.

She's about to send her opponents back to school

Surfing is one of those sports with many regions as their members. and more...

grabbed a quota. only need to get a score of 7.50 or higher to qualify, if not then will qualify

Yup, Correa and one of Duru/Mignot will compete at the Olympics as they are guaranteed to finish no worse than 10th and 4 athletes guaranteed to finish in the top 10 are not eligible. The remaining four quotas will be decided between . There's a decent chance it will be decided after repechage 8. If not then it will be decided after repechage 9.

In the event the tripartite quota is not awarded (unlikely since and are eligible) the quota will be reallocated to McGonagle

gets the final two spots So close for Brown to qualify in two Olympic sports.

It would go to the athlete with the highest score in their final heat so currently Lucia Machado (assuming Janire doesn't finish in the top 2)

Perhaps in the future, but given the fact she failed to qualify to the World League, she's still behind the top surfers. I look forward to seeing her in 2028. From a qualifying to the Olympics perspective surfing had one of the lowest chances, but that's more due to our versatility. Right now we are on pace at qualifying in 28/32 sports. Not many nations have that kind of reach. Modern pentathlon could have someone if Fitzsimmons competes at the World Cups while sport climbing is quite unlikely. Field Hockey and Handball obviously has no chance now.

Realistically, surfing is still one of our weaker sports. The fact we have anyone competing is a pleasant surprise. Based on her performance over the past year Brooks' silver medal last year was more of a fluke and unlikely to be replicated.

Isn't it great when small nations like the United States get free quotas?

Too bad couldn't send a boat.

Lucky for her she'll have at least a week to travel and settle. With that said she's a long shot at qualifying in surfing.

Quite excited to see what Nemour can do at the Olympics
