According to this, there is still a chance that South Africa's women will withdraw and Greece will take their spot. The FINA president informed Greece about it during the World League super final which was just held in Athens. 
 
So now the Greek girls are still training (in a combined training camp with Canada). We even got two girls who didn't compete in the World League to come back to the team for this training camp.

#03 Rafa Nadal
#10 Roberto Bautista
#38 Albert Ramos
#64 Feliciano López
#69 Jaume Munar

All of them withdrawn from the games. What a shame, Pathetic for all of them.
 
Pablo Carreño, Alejandro Davidovich (they'll form a doubles pair) and Pablo Andujar would compete. And Roberto Carballés is expecting if he enters, cause he wants to play.
