I am continuously annoyed at the Dutch NOC qualification policies. Like, great, your “substandard” athlete will just be replaced by an even worse one. heywoodu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And how on earth are people going to be interested in a small sport that otherwise gets no visibility at all (and so get better, eventually) when you're rejecting quotas left and right all the time? If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

I have my own reasons to be interested in this 16 Groups, Some groups of 3 and some of 4, only the winners of the group advance. In the next round, Winner of Group A goes against Winner of Group B, Winner of Group c against Winner of Group D. And so forth For doubles 4 groups of 4 teams, top 2 teams go on to a quarter final Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no pot system, number of groups will determine the number of seeds. After the seeds were drawn according to the regulations, the remaining players are just randomly drawn until the draw is complete MHSN 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
