Yes that's exactly why I asked the question. because of Golnoush S. 25m pistol looks impossible for her while she could be #1 candidate in 10m Air Pistol. looks like she is not supposed to qualify after all. a series of back luck (and poor performances) happened for her during these qualification events. another question. how many events left for the ranking ? I assume only 1 World Cup in Delhi next year (and Shotgun in Cyprus). right ? and another one, I see two kinds of ranking in ISSF website, "World Ranking" and "2019 Ranking" is it right the only major difference between these 2 ranking (specially for Pistol/Rifle events) is 2018 World Champs in Korea ?

Question about the ranking. the document says The highest ranked athlete not yet qualified in any event and provided that the athlete’s NOC does not have a quota place in that specific event, then theathlete will obtain one (1) quota place. These quota places are allocated to the athletes by name. Does it mean if a NOC qualifies one shooter in an event, that's not possible for them to receive a second quota through ranking ?

I wonder how many times a female athlete from Kuwait qualified for the Olympics before , I mean not wild card , probably not too many times she is an Asian Champion. not a surprise at all. edit: it seems she failed to qualify after all !!

In general yes specially between the governments, but currently people in Iraq are tired of other countries meddling in their business and they are angry at everybody (including Iran and USA and Saudi Arabia). The Iranian government even forbid the Iranians to travel to Iraq these days because of security concerns but then they had no problem sending a whole football team (which could be a very good target for angry people and also the terrorists there) to Iraq !!! I still don't know how the hell they had no problem sending the team to Iraq !

FIFA decided both games Iraq-Iran and Iraq-Bahrain will be played on neutral ground! I'm sure our players and their families will feel better when they hear the news tomorrow. considering the current situation in Iraq and specially how they act against Iran these days that was very dangerous to play there, and no exaggerating it was life threatening. it seems our foreign coach didn't want to go there at all. Ironically our federation never asked for it. which was dubious and surprising. they sent someone to check the empty stadium and say everything is OK ! yeah the empty stadium is safe ,everybody knows ! but fortunately FIFA acted itself and took this decision. rumors say both matches will be held in Jordan. I feel sorry for Iraqi football fans but that was the right decision.

yes he is a married to Tanja Tanackovic, former Serbia NT member. he will be 33 in Paris and he was on decline since "the Rio disaster" but who knows maybe this big change helps him. sometimes it does. he was destroying everybody in peak of his career. people can see how dominant Milad Beigi is currently but Khodabakhshi beat him handily in 2015 in Iranian trials. Khodabakhshi in his prime days was even better than current Beigi. but nobody knows what happened to him in Rio and after that.

she even won a bronze but that wasn't enough for the quota at the time ! yes I think she is more talented than her teammates in Iran women's pistol team. specially Golnoush who has a history of choking in crucial moments. she still has one last chance in women's 25m pistol though.

actually it was another Iranian girl Dorsa Arabshahi who won the gold ahead of Rostamian and the rest. Golnoush (I have to call her by her first name, she has quite a LONG surname ) wasn't in Naples. as we know Shooting is unpredictable, that girl Arabshahi didn't even make the Iranian team for this event !

Mehdi Khodabakhshi officially confirmed he is going to participate for Serbia, and if you check the WT ranking. from this month he is listed for Serbia. it seems his mother in law has cancer and his wife can't live anywhere else but Serbia. he says he still needs few more month to be eligible for Serbia but his goal is to win a medal at the 2024 Olympics (2020 is not possible for him) the news about Khodabakshhi came to Iran only today and it made the headlines everywhere . seriously Iranian media are always behind. I knew about it a week ago. anyway good luck to Khodabakhshi and thanks for everything.

Happy for Rostamian but then again Japan denied Iran another quota Golnoush is even tied with the Japanese shooter but Yamada has more Xs it was very close between non-qualified shooters

Quotas in 10m Air Pistol Women

I can see that now too. but it wasn't working as "live score" during the finals. well since Iran failed it was better to see the final score instead of watching live score for something like 20minutes but at least we are collecting all team bronze medals

Are u you telling me women's scores are always higher (in standing events) ? I'm not sure if that's correct but at least here it was a huge difference, as I said 627.3 (could be 3rd in men) didn't make it to the final after all.

comparing men and women results. 627.3 could be 3rd best result in men's qualifiers, but this is very possible for Khedmati with that score to miss the final

I knew Iran finished 7th (from our local sources) but I was wondering if it's just me having problem with SIUS btw I always knew Iran will be the first unqualified shooter damn you Japan. just stick to your own host quota.

ah I knew it btw how do you have the final results ? I can't see anything about the finals on SIUS. to me it's still only the qualification results

Surprised to see Iran having competitors in 25m Rapid Fire Pistol. that's the first time. as far as I knew that event didn't exist here because of lack of equipment. and Iranians aren't the worst shooters in the competition. (not that far from that though) I was hoping for Nekounam to qualify , but now we have Sedaghat in the final. we will see ...

Last day of Greco 60kg: 1. Melikyan 2. Sharshenbekov 3. Mohsennejad & Petrosian 67kg: 1. El Sayed 2. Liavonchyk 3. Imentalab & Politaiev 72kg: 1. Geraei 2. Suleymanov 3. Yevtushenko & Petic 82kg: 1.

Russia 118

Actually I won't be surprised if he wins the gold in Tokyo . he is one of the favorites for sure and deserved a bronze this year in Astana (and I believe he got robbed)

First set of medals in Greco 55kg: 1. Ogawa 2. Sefershaev 3. Aliyev & Ozturk 63kg: 1. Delkhani 2. Kavjaradze 3. Valitov & Nehoda 77kg: 1. Opiev 2. Sakuraba 3. Akkoyun & Shadukayev 87kg: 1. Novikov 2. Khetsuriani 3. Maskevich & Gregorich 130kg: 1. Yousefi 2. Pataridze 3. Yildrim & Ovasapyan

both Achab and Perez won the gold. worst case scenario not surprised, I knew it. now Hosseini has to win a medal in Moscow. most probably silver or gold to win the quota. and still nobody knows how and based on what UK denied him visa for the Worlds. it will be unfair if he ends up losing the quota only because of that.
