look 1 or 2 pages back...however, those lists are provisional, there's still one Grand Prix event (with major points up for grabs)

yes, you're right... I totally forgot that the Individuals still have one Grand Prix event to be contested so, make as if my previous posts about the Individual qualification weren't posted

no, of course... but, provided anything unthinkable under normal circumtances happens, there are some competitions that have an already designated winner and we can't ignore this

just to name a few... Leon Marchand (swimming, men's 200m and 400 IM at least) Track Cycling, men's Team Sprint and Harrie Lavreysen (Individual Sprint) Karlos May Nasar (weightlifting, men's -89kg) all the table tennis, weightlifting and diving competitions in which they compete

in the women's Foil, the Individual spots should go to: Anne Sauer (Europe) Flora Pasztor (Europe) Amita Berthier (Asia & Oceania) Maxine Isabel Esteban (Africa) Daphne Chan Nok Sze (Asia & Oceania) Arantza Inostroza (Americas)

total domination by (men) and (women), even the GMM wasn't even close to a competitive match and the same 3 teams on the podium in both competitions, a huge gap is developing between those 3 Nations and the rest of the field...not sure that's good for the sport, though

at a first quick look, nothing has changed among the men so, it's Daniel Dosa and Carlos Llavador for Europe (the Spaniard should have saved a 1-point margin over Choupenitch) then, Cheung Ka Long and Ha Taegyu in Asia, Guilherme Toldo in the Americas and Salim Heroui in Africa the women, later...

too complicated, I never made any calculation... just wait for the FIE website to update it

in the meantime, vs and vs are the women's Team Foil semifinals for what concerns the Olympic Qualification, nothing's gonna change from the previous ranking ( will finish ahead of in Today's event, so they are qualified to the Olympics with the European spot, which was the only question still open until a couple of hours ago) and therefore we have the "Olympic 8": Italy (World Ranking) United States (World Ranking) France (World Ranking) Japan (World Ranking) Canada (Panamerican spot) China (Asian spot) Poland (European spot) Egypt (African spot) finally, we can also say that the top 4 seeds right now will also be the top 4 seeds in Paris, as there's a huge gap between and , which is highly unlikey to be cut down from Today till the start of the Games

OK, will play for the 9th place later Today, so the 3 or 4 points they're going to add to their total (after the discarded score) are enough to save their ass in the Top 4 of the OQR, as lost to the in the quarterfinals and can't add anymore enough points to overtake the Europeans this means that are also mathematically qualified to the Olympics, taking the European spot meanwhile it's down to and for the Asian spot, since won their quarterfinal matchup against and are still in the hunt for a place in the Gold Medal match (the only chance they have to overtake ): if win the tournament, they take the Asian spot; if they finish 2nd, need to make the top 6 to save their place at the Olympics, otherwise, if they finish 7th or 8th, once again take the Asian spot are going to face in the consolation round, that most likely won't be really motivated now are going to face in the semifinal match (the other SF match is between and ), with that need to defend 22 points over the to save (for now) their 1st place in the OQR

lost to in the round of 16 of the men's team Foil this might lead to a crazy turn of events in the OQR, as it leaves the door open for to overtake them and replace them in the top 4, which would mean the Asian spot for (who also are still in competition and with a remote chance to overtake for the Asian spot even if they both end up out of the top 4) and the end of the Olympic dream for (who would be in, if only could stay in the Top 4, otherwise they're out and get the European spot) the next 3/4 hours will be an absolute thriller all the action is live on Youtube https://www.youtube.com/@fencingegypt944

good news for also in the women and men's Foil World Cup in Cairo among the men, the final act is an all-Italian affair between Tommaso Marini and Edoardo Luperi among the women, instead, it's a replay of the last tournament, with Martina Favaretto facing the Olympic Champion, Lee Kiefer

I hope that's not the case being the top seed in Paris would make a good difference

won bronze __________________________ after Today's results, are mathematically qualified to Paris 2024 might still earn the 4th spot (especially if lose the GMM later Today), but it's highly unlikely however, they still have a 26 point-margin over for the Asian spot have no more chances to make the top 4 of the OQR, but they're safe as the best Panamerican team have a 8-point margin over and a 15-point margin over ( are also not mathematically out yet, but basically their chances are only theoretical) for the European spot, provided keep their place in the Top 4 at the end of the final OQT
