prso1000 533 Posted April 8, 2022 #151 Share Posted April 8, 2022 Fencing continues with the shitty system. Totally favoring teams and big nations Judo with smaller changes: 17 best from ranking (instead of 18) per category but with 5 invitation to ensure more teams in mixed event Taekwondo: Unchanged I think (totally unfair against big nations:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshMartini007 2,131 Posted April 8, 2022 #156 Share Posted April 8, 2022 Usually I dislike it when sports cut their tripartite quotas, but for judo it probably doesn't hurt much, the old system guaranteed 121 different nations so cutting it down to 116+ nations isn't the end of the world. It'll also help prevent the mixed team event from having an embarrassing low amount of teams (2020 was okay, but there could be situations where we'll struggle to get 8+ teams in the old system).

Olympian1010 7,418 Posted April 8, 2022 #157 Share Posted April 8, 2022 I don’t think it was mentioned yet, but there’s also a chance for universality quotas in golf now. “Sport has the power to change the world.

Not sure that France will be qualified for Field Hockey. It's look like the same fact than Team Brazil in Rio 2016. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
