Probably that's it. They are giving an extra quota to Peru, simply because they don't know how to be clear in their documents.

v.  should be a good one. Although I am expecting Canada to win, Sweden did take us to OT at last years World Championships (also coincidentally in the quarterfinals) before Nurse knotted in the 3-2 goal for Canada. But Svensson and Söderberg are no joke and if both catch on fire it may just result in an upset.

Viven Jackl (through the 2024 Hungarian Nationals)

Wow, 15 years old  Vivien Jackl swims a 4:34.96 PB in women's 400 IM at the Hungarian Nationals. 

Quick midweek update on some trials/national meets this week:
 
 Hungary
 
Most of the highlights have already been mentioned by other users on the forum. However, one swim was missed. Yesterday in the men's 200 IM, Gabor Zombori swam 1:57.88 to beat his lifetime best by over a second. That swim gets him under the OQT needed for the Olympics.
 
 South Africa (After 3 of 6 days)
 
Josh has already mentioned Schoenmaker's time. However, in the same race, Kaylene Corbett also went 2:23.71 to also confirm her ticket to Paris. She has been 2:22 in the qualification period at WUGS. 
 
Pieter Coetze also went 1:55.85 in the 200m backstroke to confirm his spot in Paris.
 
Matt Sates has the OQT in the 200m butterfly but wasn't quite able to clear the OQT at this meet. However, I believe South Africa does accept OQT's from outside the national championships if no swimmer hits it there.
 
 New Zealand (After 3 of 5 days)
 
Eve Thomas successfully added the 1500m freestyle to her event lineup to go alongside the 400m and 800m freestyles. She won in 16:07.46 to get under the OQT.
 
Hazel Ouwehand established a New Zealand Record in the Women's 100m Butterfly. Her time of 57.43 gets her a ticket to Paris.
 
Erika Fairweather has been in fine form going 1:55.45 and 4:02.35 in the 200 and 400m freestyles. She's already qualified in both events.
 
Lewis Clareburt is already in fine form. He went 1:47.18 and 3:46.85 in the 200 and 400m freestyles. Both PB's and the latter is under the OCT. These set him up well for his better 200m butterfly and 200m IM events later in the meet where he is still hunting down the OQT's.
 
Despite achieving the OQT at the 2023 World Championships, Andrew Jeffcoat is in danger of missing the Olympics. He already failed to hit the OQT in the 100m backstroke and has one more chance in the 200m backstroke here.

A contradiction regarding how the host country quota gets reallocated is my interpretation.
 
Paragraph D1.2 of the qualification document mentions that an unused host country quota ends up to the next highest placed athlete from 2024 World Championships. This would mean Brazil, as their athlete finished 14th.
 
However, paragraph F2 states that an unused host country place is reallocated to the next highest placed NOC from 2024 World Championships, provided that the NOC is not yet qualified. If this is applied after handing out continental quotas, Peru is first on the line. 
 
Peru's federation first reported that they got a quota on 13 March, much earlier than world aquatics.

Yes, that's a mistery
 
I have asked World Aquatics on X

So I guess someone in the women's event rejected a quota that went to  María Bramont-Arias, who was 25th in the qualifier and the next in line ¿¿????

quite disappointed by Milàk's swim over 200m Fly...after this morning, I expected him to be at least 1.5 sec faster Tonight

2:19.01 in the final!

200m Fly: Milàk, 1.55.43 in the morning heats
 
I guess he's gonna swim at least 1.53 in the afternoon, which would mean that he's gonna enter the Olympics as the usual favourite
 
p.s. he also swam 22.29 in the 50m Free heats

2:19.92 for  Tatjana Smith (was Schoenmaker) in the women’s 200m breaststroke prelims at the South African Olympic Trials!
