Unsurprisingly, North Africa dominates Greco-Roman. Freestyle should be a little more diverse.

Four Oceania nations are competing in men's -67kg Greco-Roman and they all ended up on the same half of the bracket. Algeria likely wins the quota though.

Yeah, for as heartbreaking as 2012 was, it did put the women's national team on the map.

Will the first set of draws be tonight or tomorrow morning?

She's 65 points away from the top 400, plus whatever she needs to defend. Tough, but doable if she gets some traveling funding. She would probably need a few semi or better performances at the W35 / W50 events.

Women's volleyball is another bad example. Even with continental spots the women have not qualified unless Canada or the United States were host. Funny, enough 2024 is our best chance in a long time and if we qualify it won't be because of a continental spot. After a more in-depth search, I believe only football and shooting would be missed. 26/32 sports is still more than most nations.

Even if Canada was in Europe, we'd still be in most sports. Like easily 20+, likely around 25. Off the top of my head, we'd probably fail to qualify in shooting and football. Among disciplines we'd probably miss open water swimming and canoe slalom. Everything else we'd have a representative. Yes, Canada benefits from not being in Europe, but we are still good at qualifying.

The tripartite quota on the women's side is quite competitive. Currently in the top 400 we have: Lina Gjorcheska (239) Danka Kovinic (241) Kathinka von Deichmann (277) Francesca Curmi (311) Sada Nahimana (336) Victoria Jimenez (364) While I would love Burundi to get the quota and help boost tennis in Africa, Liechtenstein might force the tripartite committee's hand. They aren't eligible to send a swimmer and they don't compete in athletics (when was the last time they competed at a World Championships?) so without a tripartite quota they won't compete at the Olympics. Outside of tennis their most likely tripartite quota would be in mountain biking. Also Liechtenstein has a higher ranking than Burundi so that may also play into their hand.

Japan might be forced to use some of their relay only swimmers in the individual events. They are only allowed up to 12 relay only swimmers.

If they split up the West Indies it could be a good tournament. Not sure if there's a cricket field in

I know money can be an issue for nations, but if it wasn't I would try to have a representative in each event if possible. That goes for all sports. While Canada isn't a top 10 nation on the medal table, our diversity in sports puts us in the top 10. We are on pace in appearing in at least 28/32 sports and 41/47 disciplines. That wouldn't happen if we decided that since we aren't great at shooting, no one should go.

While I understand (but still dislike) having a specific meet or meets to achieve the OQT, these nations which create even harder times is ridiculous. It's not like FINA made the OQT easy to get either. Imagine if Japan was as strict in other sports as it is in swimming, their team would be like 50-75 athletes rather than the near 300 they would normally get.

So back to handball... Close match, but Hungary seems to have the advantage so far.

So close for , standing up to strong European teams is no easy feat. v should be a good match.

Technically they don't have to fast because they fall under the travelers exception (assuming they are away from their home for more than 5 days). Granted many athletes still fast.

Israel is qualified in the ILCA6. Here's the official list of qualified nations

Clearly Ghana picked correct for its host sport

Men's recurve finals Matheson vs. McLean was down 0-4, came back to tie it 4-4, but lost the fifth set. Could have been an interesting final given that the top seed also lost.

Women's recurve finals Edmundson vs. Harrison

Women's recurve semifinals Edmundson vs. Prasad Walter vs. Harrison

Men's recurve semifinals Ryan vs. Matheson Jensen vs. McLean

It's nothing about Argentina choice. The rules say the highest ranked boats get the quota, only when there is a tie the nation gets to choose. Argentina finished 3rd in W1x while the lightweight boats finished in the top 2.

The quotas go to the following nations: M1x - LM2x - W1x - LW2x -
