It will be Triyatno in 67, Deni is removed from the Olympic preparation team because he refused to follow the rules of the national team (apparently he wanted to bring his family to live in the national training center  )

that's extremely weird !

but that's a bad news for Han (and also Jeremy), because Triyatno will grab the Asian quota.

 

assuming PRK really withdraws, GEO will be in top 8 now, the European quota goes to Brandhuber but he is also eligible for 61kg, if he picks 61kg, Hernandez will qualify

Also, I think it will put  in top 8 and  will take the Pan-Am quota.

not yet but yes that's possible

 

if we remove PRK, Mexico is still 9th (behind ). but he can be in top 8 if Colombia gets suspended or if Japan decides to send someone else or even if any of these guys get injured which is always possible in this sport.

My assumption was COL getting suspended.

I think this is becoming more and more unlikely. all of their 3 weightlifters received the original suspension but it seems Colombia WL federation is making the process longer intentionally by bringing it to CAS.

 

it's a lengthy process, even Vietnam and Romania are not banned yet. (despite having 3 official suspensions) Colombia is hoping to receive that 1 year ban after Tokyo.

The story is very bizarre.... Be prepared...

 

The reason Deni was so adamant to bring his family because he claimed that only his wife know what kind food he need daily. The food from his wife is deemed too much by the nutritionist and it caused an issue. After a negotiation, he finally rented an apartment for his family and follow the nutrition program like other athletes... but now he doesn't want to stay in the national training center Also the federation found out that he also worked part time as a personal trainer, thus making him often not giving 100% during training. He said that he did that because he was having a financial difficulties, which was very likely true because he is the only guy in the national center who doesn't get monthly allowance from the government civil servant program. Why? Despite he won gold in 2017 SEA Games, he is not admitted as a civil servant because his ex-wife appeared in national TV and said that he is having an affair with a woman who is now his current wife!

So, basically Han (or Jeremy) would miss out on Olympics because Deni had an affair.

A good tabloid material, isn’t it?

IWF Ranking website is not working tonight, so I can't calculate the changes in the ranking. I don't even know the ranking

 

but here are the important results of tonight, I mean those who are still in race to qualify

 

Men's 73kg

Mayora - 330kg

Lang - 328kg

Cardenas - 317kg

Mayora was safe and Cardenas was probably out of the race. not sure how many points Max Lang is going to gain from here.

 

Men's 81kg

Mendez - 335kg

Kasai - 320kg

I highly doubt these results make a difference for them. Mendez was in good situation (almost safe) and Kasai with these poor results won't be selected for the Japanese team. if Japan doesn't pick Kasai, (as far as I remember ) there was nobody else from Asia to take that Asian quota !

 

Women's 55kg

Lopez - 195kg

Hernandez - 188kg

Rodriguez - 187kg

Sterckx - no mark

 

Women's 59kg

Gomez - 220kg

Figueroa - 216kg

Escobar - 216kg

 

I have no idea about the women's ranking in both weights. just posted some top non-Colombian results!

[MHSN 3,621]

OK the website is up and running. only minor change for 73kg ranking.

 

 

lots of guys in this weight will participate at the World Juniors, but looking at the points gap these guys are 100% safe now

 

Cummings (Top 8)

Mayora (Top 8)

Calja (Top 8)

Ben Hnia (Top 8)

Cardenas (Pan America)

Wakeling (Oceania)

Moum (Africa)

 

I believe these guys will be there too

Shi

Andreev

Miyamoto

Won

 

Sanchez (ESP) is correctly 10th and the best ranked European but Martin Rubu (MDA) can take his place after the World Juniors

 

if PRK withdraws and the ranking doesn't change Won will be in Top 8 and that opens the door for Abdullah (INA) and Meredov (TKM) for the Asian quota. both of them will participate at the Juniors Worlds
