" If there are less than 12 nations with at least four male competitors, then the next nation with three allocated quota places will be allocated an additional quota place until there are twelve qualified teams."

 

 

By now there are only 9 teams qualified: .

 

So with three quotas should get fourt one, but what than?   has only three eligible athlets and no other NOC has three quotas, several with two, but if they really want 12 teams, there are no quotas left to do this.

 

 

Quotas and rellocations are so confusing to me.  

in 2018 they gave South Korea 2 additional quotas，bring total quotas to 67，so South Korea can compete in Team Event

apparently. I still have to check Japan wrestling website to see the reason but that's usually the reason when you got a VFO on your scorecard.

One of the biggest shocks of the day occurred before the action started when Japan's Higuchi failed to make weight in his bid to return to the Olympics at 57kg.

"When we left the hotel for the weigh-in location in the morning, the mood was that we had some leeway," explained Shigeki NISHIGUCHI, the Japan Wrestling Federation general manager.

"After arriving at the weigh-ins, he was 250 grams over. He tried to lose the weight within the alloted 30 minutes, but came up 50 grams short. This was also a lack of support [from the federation]. I offer my apologies."

You are right......

Rei Higuchi (JPN) was eliminated in the first round……

Hasibagena and Menghejigan are ethnic Mongolian, they usually don’t have family name.

 

Habila AWUSAYIMAN and Walihan SAILIKE are the order we call them. They are Uighur and the order for them is given name first, family name second. The family name is farther’s given name and it changed by generation.

I think it incorrect to translate their name in mandarin romanization. It’s better to translate their name directly from their mother tongue.

 

They are not Uighurs, they are Kazakhs
