What happened to cause Ireland to get a gymnastics quota?

Although I think this is a political decision and nothing to do with the Covid situation

Thank you

Anyone know what are the chances of some of the GBR women qualifying for Tokyo?

Here's the reply I got "Just had a look at the qualification system doc. Given it says: "An athlete can qualify in one of two ways - entry standard or world ranking." I understand that to mean that both pathways have equal weighting, and federations can select any athletes they like, provided they're qualified in either of those ways. In fact, that would have to be the case for comps like the US Trials to work. If, for example, the USA has 7 athletes with the qualifying standard and a further 6 within world rankings places, they'd still be able to send the top three finishers at the US Trials."

and please.

I've just asked a friend who works for World Athletics for his opinion. I'll send you his reply when I get it.

A terrible story from the 1970s

Talking to people who know more about athletics, they believe there were too many big personal bests set by people not running on the special shoes. They think it was a problem with the measurement of the course

Although court papers have proved that both Riis and Pantani were doping with EPO on a massive scale since at least 92-3. There were even some rumours that they had some blood in their EPO system

This was the era of Riis, Pantani, Armstrong and the most blatant drug cheats of all time and the most important decision the UCI was to ban riders from having their arms sticking out in front of them...

Talking about shoes. Should make clear this was a road race

FORT WORTH, Texas – J’den Cox (Colorado Springs, Colo./Titan Mercury WC/USOPTC) will not compete at the 2020 U.S. Olympic Team Trials – Wrestling on Friday. Cox did not make weight. Under the rules of the event, Cox has been removed from the bracket at 97 kg in men’s freestyle, where he was entered pending weigh in. He had earned a spot in the semifinals, based upon winning a 2019 World medal in a non-Olympic weight class (92 kg). The bracket for that weight class has been adjusted. Cox was a 2016 Olympic bronze medalist and 2017 World bronze medalist at 86 kg, then won consecutive World titles in 2018 and 2019 at 92 kg. He was a three-time NCAA champion at Missouri, and hails from Columbia, Mo.
