Yes they earn it for their country and hence can be swapped by another athlete if the country wants to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eg Carolina Marin was injured but her seeded place didn't go to the next Spanish player Clara Azurmendi though but she qualified based on her own rankings. So if Praneeth wouldn't have gone to Tokyo then Kidambi would have taken his place but unseeded Sanjib 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same if we had selected Lakshya, Sourabh, Kashyap or Prannoy. Any of them would have been the 14th seed. But, I don't think Praneeth's injury was serious enough to make this change.
