men's football match is the nation's first international sporting experience in over 3 years. I wonder if they will compete outside of the Asian Games. Regardless it'll be interesting to look at the state of their team and see what Olympic quotas they may challenge for.

I think you have been misunderstanding the rules. It would be easier to understand if you treat AIN like the refugee team.
 
I think that tweet confirms UWW will accept the quota unless the IOC completely bans Russia/Belarus. World Rowing was probably taking a more cautious approach.

Yeah, the federation rankings use the results of the top 25 players and since Canada has almost no depth we won't have enough points to qualify.
 
It use to be much worse, for 2020 it was the top 100 players which caused nations like Mongolia to farm points by hosting multiple tournaments a day.

Pretty standard results, the top 4 nations reached the semis and the two best are in the final.

Watch defeat at the Oceania championships just to throw more chaos into the final tournament.

She formally competed for but decided to compete for her father's home nation. Not without France almost costing her a spot at the Olympics because they refused to release her. A report detailing the federation's abuse of its athletes paved the way for her to compete at the African Championships and now she's allowed to compete at the World Championships.
 
She should grab the Olympic quota quite easily and she's a potential medal threat in the women's uneven bars and balance beam

Canada finished a top of Group A and qualified to the quarterfinals

It would be the first time since 2012 since we qualified a team.

Probably because we have two team quotas. It's to prevent the top two teams from meeting in the semis and then getting eliminated.
 
Of course with v in the men's quarterfinals the whole exercise is ruined

The final women's round robin will be between
 
I know we use to be two continents, but I think it's weird that we still got two team quotas. Even in 2028 we will have at least two Pan American nations since the United States will be hosts.

I don't like that continental spots are decided by world rankings. It worked out for the women's, but for the men's Tunisia will end up representing Africa despite finishing 5th at the most recent African Championships. Unfortunately the lesser teams don't get enough exposure so their ranking positions don't change as quickly.
 
Field hockey has the correct format to ensure the top teams are represented. Continental qualifiers first then world qualifiers for the remaining teams.

Good start for Canada. If we can get the win tomorrow against the Dominican Republic then we are looking good to meet our objective of maximizing our world ranking points.

That's what happens when you cut quotas. Setting judging and governance issues aside, boxing is still one of the more played sports. Quotas should really average 24 entrants with the heaviest weights getting less and the middling weights getting more.
