    Defeating Mauritius' boxer was always going to be tough. There's still the third place match though

    The UCI has it wrong the Czechs should have two quotas in men's sprint and Colombia should have one (Americas have a maximum of two in that event) Same thing in men's keirin, it should Italy with one and Japan should be reduced from two to one as Asia has a maximum of two in that event.
  3. JoshMartini007
    They aren't, in reality this will essentially be a world qualification tournament with four available quotas.
  4. JoshMartini007
    Will we include athletes whose nation decided to pick someone else for that event?

    The Latin America regatta will also be a good place for tripartite nations to make their case to be given one of the single sculls places. Overall we have Bermuda, Bolivia, Honduras and Paraguay competing in single sculls events. Bolivia will compete in only the men's while Bermuda will compete in only the women's. Paraguay will be the favourite to finish first among these nations and will probably end up winning either a men's or women's tripartite spot (assuming they don't qualify from this event)

    Our boxers are dropping out like flies. Four men remain and two of them haven't even had their first match. At least the women are doing well though it's a shame that the bracket makers made the top two boxers (CAN and USA) fight in the quarterfinals in the -60kg. We should be the favourite in the other two events to qualify, but we'll see.

    I'm not sure if this is true. Neither athlete participated in the African qualifier or the 2015 World Champs, this is not a requirement, but usually athletes with active participation will get priority. It is also unlikely that a nation will get two spots in the same sport (especially a competitive one like taekwondo). I'll keep an eye on it.

    Interesting. Julie lost the fight to qualify in the laser to his compatriot. The finn class is a bit different, yet similar enough that a person can transition to it. If he had more time to train I would call him the favourite. I guess we'll know once the races begin.

    Loving the crowd at BC Place. The expectation was to get 20k people per day, but in the end 30k came. Canada needs a huge win against Russia in order to reach the cup quarters though.
  10. JoshMartini007
    Thanks, sometimes athletes that could qualify drop out due to lack of funds.
  11. JoshMartini007
    Will there be a third place match or will the loser to the winner just qualify?
  12. JoshMartini007
    We are definitely the underdog, but we're already qualified in aquatics so it's okay.
  13. JoshMartini007
    Yay, our quest to qualify in 27/28 sports continues, next up boxing. Canada, the most average team in sports
  14. JoshMartini007
    Still better than Papua New Guinea getting a free quota in the Oceania qualifier. This is what happens when there is a 2 athletes per gender limit in a four per gender event.
  15. JoshMartini007
    Too bad for Honduras, this was probably their best shot at qualifying an individual without invitations (maybe they can in athletics).
  16. JoshMartini007
    Iran has previously given up a gold medal to avoid going up against Israel so I doubt it would change now. The only way I can see it happening would be if the athlete goes against the wishes of the nation.
  17. JoshMartini007
    I'm surprised the refugee team didn't participate here. I know there were a few reports of a couple from Brazil thinking about it.
  18. JoshMartini007
    Big chance for Honduras to qualify in the women's +67kg. Hopefully Canada can qualify today (the draws in general are pretty good)
  19. JoshMartini007
    Hopefully we can qualify in taekwondo, right now it's our least likely sport to qualify to the Olympics (minus handball)
  20. JoshMartini007
    I'm no expert, but unless the Ukraine athlete is missing a result it looks like Egypt qualified
  21. JoshMartini007
    Found it, she got 80 points for her performance at the 2015 African Track Championships, which I assume is an event which gives Olympics points since other nations got points for their 2015 continental champs
  22. JoshMartini007
    Flipping backwards she had 80 points before the 2016 African Champs. Going backwards she had those 80 points since before the Feb 23 2015 update and the website won't let me go back anymore.
  23. JoshMartini007
    It's weird though, she's listed with 200 points, but looking into the profile it only lists the African Championship in which she only got 120 points. Also if you add Ukraine's points she should have 179 points
  24. JoshMartini007
    You are correct the UCI has not added the sprint of keirin points for either men or women. As for Great Britain. Despite qualifying 16 athletes they will only send 15. Likely one of their women will compete in both the sprint and keirin.
  25. JoshMartini007
    Rankings have been posted. It looks like Egypt qualified over Ukraine in women's sprint.
