I'm hoping we'll get it over the next two weeks. FINA though made some big promises in the qualification system. Quote Following the end of the qualification period, FINA shall assess the number of athletes having achieved the OQT / “A” Time, the number or relay-only athletes and the number of Universality Places. In order complete the overall athletes’ quota, FINA shall then invite athletes having achieved OST / “B” Time and inform each NOC accordingly by 3 July 2016. An online tracking tool shall be published on the FINA website showing the athletes qualified in each event. FINA will also seek confirmation from NOCs/NFs concerning the participation of swimmers with OQT. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they didn't say when they will do it ;). If China, Germany, Netherlands and Sweden can all submit their final teams (and Hungary, if anyone new qualified on top of their 29 announced) we can probably start constructing it ourselves.

Can they repeat their results at OG? I`m not sure (i mean 200m men`s back or shot put for example). Sometimes, also in PL, those less experienced prepare their max shape for trials I fell in love with sports.....since i first seen it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW Joe Kovacs is the world champion in shot put, also the Diamond League Leader but he didn't have a good performance in the trials Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, sure, your potential is enormous but the fact is that some of those athletes great at home trails are totally unable to repeat their results at OG. In our internal canoe trails the outcome in Rio can be the same, world championships medallists from 2015 lost and are out, winners probably...won`t repeat their medals in Rio. As to Kovacs? He`s in hard training period? I hope he`s healthy 100% Edited July 5, 2016 by Pavlo I fell in love with sports.....since i first seen it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He`s in hard training period? I hope he`s healthy 100% Often athletes come to trials and dont work too hard because there aren't too many people that can prevent them from going to the games. in USA case.... it's the opposite, the athletes work so hard to get through the trials and reach their peak about a month too early. Kovacs is fine, i saw him in the prefontaine classic last month and he was really good Pavlo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
