In the men's final round, Brazil has 2 wins, Canada and Puerto Rico 1, and Chile none. Last matches: vs. and vs. For women's, United States with 2 wins, Brazil and Puerto Rico with 1, and Chile none. Last matches starting now: vs. and vs

Boyer winning gold with that routine Just a little taste of how next year is going to be...

Don't know what happened to :USA, their level wasn't great here (probably wouldn't qualify even if they made top 4). Their women's team is a favourite for a quota, though. and will battle for the second quota.

I think is very safe and will easily win all matches. The second quota will be decided between and , the last match of their group.

Maybe it was a little bit of a wishful thinking. I can't stand Sabalenka

A: alt. B: alt. C: alt.

It's easier now to predict which teams won't qualify

Well, maybe not... she looks defeated already.

Brazil is going full force in Beach Volleyball with Duda/Ana Patrícia (World #1) and George/André (World #5).

In the men's tournament the loser of vs will get in semifinals which already will be a deciding match since the bronze medalist won't even have the chance to participate in the Olympic qualification tournaments. For me is slightly ahead for men's quota and is stronger on the women's side.

Shouldn't get the quota since they have a better point difference in the group? Anyway, I think it's entirely possible for to beat .

Brazil did play with A team the South American Championship and in fact Macris is now injured and won't play the OG qualifier...

No reason to continue when you're losing by this much...

Aside from , all other teams from Americas could be eliminated in this round

Now we only have to beat (maybe the best team from this group?)

Just a question. According to the qualification regulations: "If an athlete attains a qualifying rank in both a Kayak and a Va'a medal event at the same qualification event, the NPC is allocated the Va'a qualification slot while the Kayak qualification slot is allocated to the next highest ranked athlete in the respective Kayak event (not otherwise qualified)." So that would mean that Brianna Hennessy gave a quota in VL2, but not KL1? (and there are some other cases like and in women's VL2/KL2)

A medal didn't happen this time, but is already incredible that for the first time we have qualified a group and an individual gymnast via Worlds qualification. So that's makes me hopeful for better results.

I know they will give the women's football spot to a CONCACAF nation (Panama?), but I think they should give it to Brazil. Our team is the same level of those or worse...
