A total of 318 athletes – 192 in Artistic, 94 in Rhythmic and 32 in Trampoline.
Via email from FIG:
Artistic Gymnastics
- Available places: 96 male gymnasts + 96 female gymnasts

- Dates: 27 July – 5 August
First opportunity to qualify for Artistic will be at Liverpool, United Kingdom, at the World Championships, scheduled to take place from 29 October to 6 November 2022. Top 3 teams each qualify 5 spots for Paris.
At the 2023 Worlds in Antwerp, Belgium the 9 remaining team places will be awarded. And and the 3 next-best-ranked eligible countries will get 1 non-nominative place. In addition, the All-Around Qualifications’ results will enable 8 male gymnasts and 14 female gymnasts to get their Olympic tickets. The Apparatus finals will be an opportunity for the specialists with places for the #1 eligible gymnast in each apparatus final.
The specialists will have another opportunity with the Apparatus World Cup series in 2024. The 2 best eligible women and men on each apparatus from the Olympic Qualification World Cup Ranking List – based on their best three results out of four in the series – will be Paris-bound.
The last qualifying opportunity will come at the 2024 continental championships, with 1 All-Around individual place at stake for contenders at each continental event.

Komova finally proud of London Silver
At the London Olympics you could argue that either Gabby Douglas or Viktoria Komova deserved the gold. LIVE at the time, I thought Gabby was slightly better in the AA competition.
17-year-old Komova did not take the loss well.
I was disappointed in her attitude at the time. Poor sportsmanship.
Now I can say this: ⠀ I’m proud of myself! I’m proud of my performance! And I’m glad I went to the Olympics! 🎉 ⠀ This is my sports pride for life ♥️”

Coach Keiji Yamanaka R.I.P.
Shocking news.
Many including myself felt Keiji would live forever.
One of Ellie Black’s coaches. A class gentleman beloved by all who worked with him. And one of my first mentor coaches.
Keiji will be missed.
