That's a bit old for a maximum age I think, but these young kids should be protected. Some of them are barely even teenagers..

BREAKING - UCI 2024 Road World Championships (originally 'in the german-speaking zone of Suisse') will be in Zurich

Here is the updated entry list for the upcoming Shotgun World Cup
 
In terms of Olympic qualification the top 2 eligible athletes in each individual Olympic event qualify their nation. Based on the IQS here are the top 5 eligible athletes. Again this is not an accurate way of measuring the favourites, but it at least gives some kind of a picture.

To whom it may concern, (and for the first time in a while I write this sentence not to start a cover letter), here is a very brief recap of swimming qualification after some events took place. Please note that, as @phelpspointed out and as I'm sure almost all of you know, every nation uses its own additional qualification criteria, so this is a purely statistical data made for my own fun.
 
At the moment, 25 athletes have reached at least once the minimum A in one event. In total, considering multiple participation for athletes, I counted 34 times that A standard was reached. At the same time, 121 minimum B were also established (maximum 1 per nation per event, not counting nations where an A standard in the relevant event was reached).
With this data, this is the current quota distribution:
 13 athletes with 18 minimum A achieved;
2 athletes with 4 minimum A achieved;
2 athletes with 3 minimum A achieved;
1 athlete with 2 minimum A achieved;
 ,  ,     and  with 1 athlete each, with 1 minimum A.
 
Other nations having achieved at least one minimum B are  ,                  
 
Among the qualifying meetings, the most proficient for qualification purposes has been the TYR Pro Swim Series in Des Moines, , with 27 A standard, followed by City of Milan Trophy,  with 5, and Greek  and Lithuanian  national championships, with 1 each.
 
Hali Flickinger,  has achieved a minimum A in 3 different events.
 
PS: Please note that I only have partial data regarding Korean National Championships.

They were out of inspiration for the 3x3 basketball so thought "hey, what's different about 3x3? I know! We put the commercial 3x3 logo in our pictogram!"?

Universaides as well

Asian Games and Paralympics.

Yeah, I don't get why they put it like that, but seems like those qualified in team pursuit are not directly qualified for the omnium.
 
In any case, we know that 20/21 is the max number of athletes for the omnium. And since there are 12/13 omnium-only quotas, then only 8 madison nations get their place directly (indeed, presumably those without team pursuit).

IGF has published the current Olympic Qualification lists: https://www.igfgolf.org/olympic-games/tokyo-2020/tokyo-2020-qualification-system/tokyo-2020-olympic-golf-rankings/ (Sorry, if it's mentioned anywhere else here and I missed it.)

Italy isn't candidate for a single World Championship but for the WEG

So now Youth Olympic Champion, Junior World Champion and World Champion.
 
Peter Sagan is going to have some nice competition for the athlete of the year this time

The italians should have chosen Lara Della Mea, instead of Marsaglia. She was great in the team event. 

The FIE Ranking http://fie.org/results-statistic/ranking is like tennis: for every competition, a team/fencer defend the points won in the corresponding competition the previous year. The Olympic Ranking will be the FIE Ranking as of 4 April 2020 (so counting results from April 2019).
So if you are only interested in the Olympic Ranking, you can think that in April 2019 every team/fencer starts from zero points. For teams, you add the points gained at World Championships + Continental Championships + best 4 results at Team World Cups in April 2019- 4 April 2020. For individuals, you add the points gained at World Championships + Continental Championships + best 5 results at World Cups/GP in April 2019- 4 April 2020. 

it took 4 starts, but finally they got away correctly...and Valcepina won her 2nd consevutive race over the 500m in the World Cup...and this time she did it at home, so...double satisfaction for her...

Here are the dates for all the Olympic qualification events except for the African Finn qualifier
