Yes, but IOC is still quiet. They could answer the request and male this situation clear but ignore this opportunity.

I understand the rules ) But I fear that UWW is not going to respect these rules at all. They have to reallocate this quota on the 8th of October. They rejected clear photo evidences of war-support by Sidakov, Ugujev and Sadulajev. So, I think they will do all their best to save russian quoras.

The deadline for reallocation is the 8th of October But!! Look at their latest twitter message. UWW announced quota for AIN! They broke all the rules.

By the way, did the official commentators say something about the quotas for AINs?

/ 30 in total

One more thing. Initial draw is not the same as final one. Please, look at these to files for 74FS. Both were downloaded from the UWW website. 74.pdf - 18:26. 15.09.2023 74a.pdf - 02:06. 17.09.2023 For example, in the initial file Sidakov and EMAMICHOGHAEI are in different halfs. Now they are in the same. Is it hormal practice? 74.pdf 74a.pdf

Will be waiting for information from you. It is really interesting - what the commentators will say. Just one remark. UWW do not have so much time - just until 8.10.23. It means, if russians and belorussians do not receive their quotas until the 8th of October the quotas will go to the next eligible NOCs. If UWW is not going to break all the rules of qualification of course.

We still do not know. Two requests to the IOC are pending (including a request from InsideTheGames). According to the officially published rules they are definitely ineligible. Even twice: 1) they did not participate in the European Championship 2) They do not represent NOC so they cannot "obtain quotas for their NOCs". The same situation was at the World Rowing Championship and they did not announce quota for belorussian despite of the fact that he finished at the quota winning place.

UWW allowed not to shake hands. Ukrainians will not do this. Russians will not insist - they have to avoid scandals like at that one at the fencing championship.

Today we have FS 61-70-86- 125kg only 57 is set for tomorrow FS 79-92-57- 74kg

Thanks! The draw is not easy. It would be interesting to see the 6th place flag too. Ex[ecially for the weights with the russian / belorussian in top 5.

It looks like Novikov and Belenuk can have a semifinal meeting in GR 87.

As far as I know IWF can make some exceptions under exceptional circumstances. This is just the case of under circumstances.

She was listed in preliminary entry, but was suspended due to potential doping violation. The case is not so clear, and it was announced by Natiinal Anti-Doping Agency. If miracle does not nappen it will be the end for her way for Paris-2024. But it looks like the case will not be added to the total NOCs account.

Whole UWW is awful and not user friendly )

If their paid livestream has the same quality as their website they will get a lot of refund requests.

Latest news on russian participants from Ukarinian sources. Semenov (GR) was ruled out by the UWW. The list of AIN delegation is still under review (UWW commission is trying to refuse photo evidences of war support). At least several national federations have doubts that AINs are eligible to win Olympic quotas. One of the reasons - the same as in Rowing - according to the official documents quota belongs to NOC, but AINs do not represnt any NOC. Thus they cannot win quotas under the current rules.

No, participation in the tournament does not provide the right to be qualified. For example, RPO athletes at the European Shotgun Championships recently. One of them got enough points to get place in final and fightt for quota. But was not eligible to qualify according to the regulations. The same applies to russians and belorussians in our case. They were allowed to participate but not to qualify. According to actual rules pairs are not allowed at all. They will be counted separately. But!! I doubt they will have full squads since tennis players have to take part id Davis Cup / Billie Jean King Cup competitions in 2023/2024 to be qligible. There are some exceptions. But I doubt they will use all their "wild cards" for russians and bellorussians. Sorry for late responce.

Let's imagine: someone lost to Sidakov and failed to qualify for the Olympics. Then he takes all the regulations released by the IOC and UWW and goes to TAS/CAS. I do not see any chances for him to lose in the court. UWW is really boring. They had half a year but have to make last-minute decisions.

What about Semen Novikov?

Hope they will act according to these document. Because United Wotld Wrestling ignored similar document on Wrestling qualification for Paris and allowed russians to take part in the World Championships next week.

The commentators at the official stream explained just after the finish that AINs cannot win quotas. But if thay finish at the quota position the World Rowing will not award this quota to other NOC at the moment. They will have to decide later how to deal with it. So there 3 ways: 1) Add it to the Final Regatta as Adriano has mentioned (most probable) 2) Reallocate to the Bulgarian rower - but yes, Bulgarian rowing federation has to act fast and insist on it. 3) Return it to AIN later (which looks questionable) And it is only the first qualififcation event with AINs. Let`s imagine what chaos will happen at the World Wrestling Championships.

I think World Rowing is doing wrong. And the quota should go to the Bulgarian rower.

The commentators mentioned at the official broadcast that AIN athletes cannot qualify boat since they do not represent NOC and a NOC only can qualify a boat. But the quoata which they "won" will not be automatically redistributed to the next eligible athlete. It does not look fair enough. World Rowing will held these quotas.

Good news for Ukraine )) And I still expect both our quads to be able to get quotas at the final regatta.
