For a lot of organizations, you don't need many donors to get a lot of money, just the "right" donors.

It's always a shame when teams have to pull out due to funding. It's tough and expensive for team sports. Canada did the same thing with the World Cup.

I'm glad they moved the European qualifications out of the World Cup. Having non-European nations influencing who qualifies was always going to create issues. Especially with Europe getting so few quotas. Not sure why FIFA felt Africa & South America deserves two guaranteed quotas each, they should have kept the quota split the same as 2020.

Surprised no Canada or France competing. Israel looks pretty good. I know it was an easy group, but could they be an up and coming nation in women's water polo. I guess we'll see how they play against New Zealand/Kazakhstan.

Norman recently changed nationalities, going with her mother's heritage. There's not a lot of competition in Group F so she will definitely be a contender for a quota.

The nation has been putting a lot of resources in basketball since their independence. They are severely under-ranked in the rankings, where they should be ranked as one of the best in Africa. Still defeating both China and Puerto Rico will be tough.

From an Olympic qualification perspective and got the best draw among the African nations as the quota can literally go to whoever qualifies to the second round. Likewise, is the (even bigger) favourite for the Asian quota

The event isn't listed as an Olympic qualifier on the FINA site

qualified their first athlete in cycling (men's road race) Another big nation off the list.

Here are the full results from the men's road race. Currently Canada and Argentina have the quotas, but they will likely be reallocated. Here is the top 10 priority list. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. Based on the current ranking the quotas would go to Uruguay and Brazil, but both nations are pretty close at cracking the top 45 so the quota could move down the list.
