My question - what is the condition to qualify an athlete via one apparatus? I am trying to count such situation for :CZE gymnasts. 

 

For example. There might be 2 Czechs, both eligible for All-Around Quota. But one of them finished, let' say, 13th in Vault. But he is first of non-team qualifiers. So Czechs might drop off the Quota for the other one in all-around and qualify the first one via apparatus? Or is there that condition that if you wanna qualify via apparatus, you must be in the final? 

 

Also asking because I noticed in women's competition there is only one gymnast qualified via apparatus. Thanks a lot.

You cannot qualify via apparatus if you are not in the final. Direct consequence is that a NOC cannot qualify more than one athlete unless they are pure specialist, because through all-around NOCs can qualify only one athlete. 

 

EDIT: all-around has higher priority, so if two athletes from the same nation can qualify through all-around, only the best ranked does. The other one can qualify via apparatus if a finalist, otherwise quota is reallocated to all-arounders

This is the condition. If a gymnast doesn't make the final, no chance to qualify in this apparatus.

If gymnasts from more than 3 nations that did not qualify a team manage to reach the final in a single apparatus, we will have to wait until event finals to see who will finish in the top 3 (among nations without a qualified team). This is very unlikely to happen, but there's a slight possibility in men's vault.

If a nation fails to qualify a team, but is able to qualify one gymnast for the Olympics through the all-around ranking and more than 2 other gymnasts for the event finals, there is a specific rule stating that only three will be able to qualify. Once again, extremely unlikely to happen, and I only see a very small possibility of this happening with Turkey.

Floor is where I suspected Turkey was going to lose it, but they managed to score over 40. Their insane parallel bars rotation (43.2) provides a very comfortable cushion for them even if they don't do very well on pommels. Either way, they are on the track to qualify a full team for the first time ever (and maybe even make it to the event finals).

Meltdown for Onder on pommel horse. Turkey is done. :facepalm:


Yes. Not even huge scores on pommel could save them now. They need 43.802 to outscore Italy, and this means 14.600 per routine. Impossible.

But this opens up a very interesting scenario: if Onder finishes ahead of Arican in the all-around and Çolak qualifies for the event final on rings, three Turkish could qualify for the Olympics (Onder in the all-around, Arican in parallel bars and Çolak in rings).

Would that mean Turkey can enter the team event (I assume, only 3 of 4 squares will count) ?

BTW do you think Canada can make it to the top 12? 246 is what they scored at Pan Ams, but have a slightly different team here.

I don’t know very much about gymnastics and I can only see live scoring, but from what I can understand I am start thinking that Italy made a good qualification and some quite good individual exercises, although apart from Lodadio it is going to be hard to see any other individual finalist
