Australia and Canada for sure.

I just noticed that the sprint freestyle swimmers from Japan had failed to reach the nation's own Olympic qualifying standard. What will happen to them if they failed? Is there a higher chance of not sending the relay teams in the men's and women's 4x100 m freestyle to Rio?

Yes. South Korea's Jin Jong-oh becomes a double starter in the men's 10 m air pistol; thus, the unused berth might be subjected to the reallocation, unless the NOC expects an exchange for one of the shotgun events. Russia assures a double starter in one of the men's rifle events.

When was the last time the Netherlands did not compete in shooting at the Olympics?

Yup. Only the 50 m rifle prone. The other unused berth will be distributed to the unqualified nations. Do you know when will the ISSF announce the tripartite?

CHINA Men's 50 m rifle 3 positions – Zhu Qinan, Hui Zicheng Men's 50 m rifle prone – Zhao Shengbo* Men's 10 m air rifle – Cao Yifei, Yang Haoran Men's 50 m pistol – Pang Wei^, Wang Zhiwei Men's 25 m rapid fire pistol – Li Yuehong, Zhang Fusheng Men's 10 m air pistol – Pang Wei^, Pu Qifeng Women's 50 m rifle 3 positions – Du Li^, Zhang Binbin Women's 10 m air rifle – Du Li^, Yi Siling Women's 25 m pistol – Chen Ying, Zhang Jingjing Women's 10 m air pistol – Guo Wenjun, Zhang Mengxue Notes: ^ – Pang Wei and Du Li occupied the second spot won by the Chinese during the qualifying period as double starters; thus, these empty berths will be subjected to reallocation as per ISSF rule, unless the Chinese are requested to exchange spots with an event that does not have a maximum number of two shooters. * Exchanges a spot from one of the events occupied by a double starter with the men's 50 m rifle prone, awarded to Zhao Shengbo.

Hi bestmen. We'll be announcing the names of judoka qualifying for the Games on May 30. Save the date.

Just an intriguing question, how do we know if these swimmers have already been qualified and selected? Distinguish between CRIT and Crit.

Yes. I've already checked multiple times, but the only available reference would be the statistics list of the boxers competing at the tournament. Not unless I have to wait until Saturday to see the draw.

Question. Where can we find the official draw and entry list of the AIBA European Olympic Qualification Tournament? Thanks.

Can't see the picture. LOL.

What competition this weekend?

U.S. OLYMPIC TEAM 50 m rifle prone (M) – David Higgins 50 m pistol (M) – Jay Shi 50 m rifle 3 positions (W) – Virginia Thrasher

Truthfully enough. Tajikistan might have a tough time for the boxers and wrestlers to compete in the "last-chance" Olympic qualifying tournaments, but there's a greater chance for the Tajiks to send judoka to the Games.

Never mine. I already checked the sources. Btw, why did the Argentines chose Bautista Saubidet in men's windsurfing, instead of Mariano Reutemann?

Source please?

How come these skiff crews have been selected? Source please.

Thank you for the update, Vojthas. As you noticed, France, Croatia, and Hungary had decided to keep their shooters intact instead of exchanging spots to the rest. The competition would be unfair if these NOCs had to take away even just a single berth from one of their athletes who won the quota places during the qualifying period. How about for Belarus, Russia, Ukraine, and of course, China? How will they select their own shooters for Rio 2016?

As you mentioned in the second stage, only the top six non-qualified table tennis players from Asia will take the remaining spots. Am I right?

If the winner of each regional zone will qualify for Rio, how will you be able to select the other six table tennis players per gender to complete the line-up among the Asians?

But they still have another chance to earn a spot at the AIBA Open Boxing Qualifier and the APB/WSB Olympic Tournament.

Rogen Ladon wins the semifinal bout, and guarantees an Olympic spot for Rio 2016! Congrats, Pilipinas!

Hi Mohsen, do you know how will the Iranian wrestlers be selected for Rio 2016? And is the list of shooters final and irrevocable?

Jevgenij Shuklin will most likely miss Rio? How did it happen?

Are there any updates on the Italian Olympic selection? CONI has not yet released the list of athletes competing for Rio 2016.
