I'm a big heptathlon and decathlon fan in athletics. So a medal in either of this would be fantastic, but realistically only Niklas Kaul has a chance, as Carolin Schäfer has problems after her Corona vaccination. If my avatar (Gesa Krause in the steeplechase) medals, it would be great as well.

They still should be as the last team. Unless someone else besides Czechia and Germany topped the time as well.

Result: leichtathletik.de | Das Leichtathletik-Portal Czechia sent a B-Team. I think their best runners are currently at the European Team Championships.

Chances are pretty good, IMO. And by the way, huge thanks to Czechia for playing really fair. In spite of and being direct concurrents for one of the three remaining places, they actually sent a relay to Regensburg. If they hadn't, Germany's result wouldn't have counted for lack of a second federation.

Germany's 4x400 Mixed ran 3:13,57 minutes in Regensburg, meaning they will climb in the ranking on 14th place, first of the not directly qualified. Kampfansage für Tokio: DLV-Mixed-Staffel legt mächtige Steigerung hin | leichtathletik.de

This result was achieved with to much tail wind (+2,4 m/s).

And this was just the Qualifier.

Germany didn't skip these years European Championships. They finished fourth. But it needs to be mentioned that it was right after some weeks, when they couldn't train properly due to Covid restrictions and hadn't the fitness for the second half.

From a totally objective point of view, I think this one sound fair.

I'm not Vektor, but I don't think it really is. Though it makes no difference. Only the medallists qualify directly, so only Clouvel and Gulyas. Langrehr will however qualify through the world ranking, so they are all qualified in the end.

Quota Places for

No, all four of them will fight for the three quotas in a final round robin.

Thanks. So that means the winner of the group will make it to the final round/top 4, and the bronze medal matches are 2nd versus 3rd of each group?

How does this work. I guess top 4 will make it to the next round and then top two per group to the final round? But what exactly are these bronze medal matches that are listed on the schedule?

I'm afraid I will never understand Kata, but I just saw that Jasmin Jüttner from Germany got highest marks in her qualification group. So great, I guess.

I guess it is possible. But Horne in Karate is a big medal contender, we won several medals at the last Wrestling World Championships and have chances at least in Judo and Taekwondo as well. I just don't think that out of all of these chances we won't win anything.

I didn't forget Karate, I counted it with Boxing etc. I just didn't mention it. Golf has only two events and basically everything is possible. So I wanted to combine it with some other sports. Tennis and Table Tennis seemed to fit, because all of them are sports involving balls but no team sports.

Let's try this again: Germany Shooting (including Archery) : 1-4 Swimming, including Open Water: 1-3 Athletics: 2-7 Diving: 0-2 Team Sports (including Beach Volleyball): 1-5 Boxing, Judo, Taekwondo, Wrestling etc.: 2-7 Fencing: 0-1 Cyling (all disciplines): 2-7 Equestrian: 4-7 Tennis/Golf/Table Tennis: 0-5 Gymnastics: 0-1 Pentathlon/Triathlon: 0-3 Canoe (Slalom and Sprint): 4-11 Rowing: 2-4 Rest: 0 Worst Case: 19 Best Case: 67 67+19 makes 86. 86/2 makes an average of 43 medals.

It's not a really fitting comparison, though. China still does have at least two Table tennis players in the single events.
