In case an NOC already qualified through the World Athletics Championships Doha 2019, the remaining places will be allocated according to the World Athletics Top Performance Lists of 29 June 2021." https://olimpiyatkomitesi.org.tr/Tokyo2020_Branslar/Atletizm.pdf But having all these other relay events in these times is maybe a bit much. But yes it's really lowering the level without especially Jamaica and USA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, they will not compete in all 5 relays. Edit: Due to withdrawal of Jamaica they will not compete in Tokyo also in men's 4x100 relay!

NO Jamaica?? maybe the IOC will give them a wildcard/special entry??? Australia also pulled out of the Diving Olympic Qualifier next week, so their diving team (strong one) will be just 7 out of 12 posible quotas Unfair both scenarios for jamaicans/australians Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have an entry list for diving qualifier? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
