The race for the 2024 Paris Olympic Video games formally started in February 2023 in Doha, Qatar, with the Volleyball World Elite16. The 2024 season started the primary week of March again in Doha, and the ultimate occasion of the Olympic qualification cycle would be the Ostrava Elite16, which ends on June 9. We’ll be offering these updates for the Seashore Volleyball Olympic rankings all through the subsequent two years.
There have been minor blows, mere jabs to the physique of Pedro and Guto’s marketing campaign for an Olympic berth in Paris 2024. However the previous two weeks have been hooks to the pinnacle — a gold medal received on the Recife Problem by Evandro Goncalves and Arthur Mariano, then one other by fellow countrymen George Wanderley and Andre Loyola on the Saquarema Problem. In the meantime, Pedro and Guto, already trailing within the Olympic race, settled for a pair of ninths, which got here on the again of a first-round qualifier loss on the Doha Elite16 earlier in March.
Identical to that, seemingly in a span of two weeks, the Brazil males’s race for the Paris Olympic Video games could also be over. George and Andre at the moment are ranked No. 4 on the earth, Evandro and Arthur No. 6. The latter lead Pedro and Guto by 1,400 factors, the previous by 1,840. With eight occasions nonetheless remaining, together with an Elite16 in Brazil through which Pedro and Guto might obtain a fundamental draw wild card, it’s too early to totally pronounce the race over, however, barring one thing extraordinary from Pedro and Guto — and they’re able to extraordinary — it’s nearing its finish.
On the opposite finish of the spectrum, the Canadian ladies’s race appears to have solely simply begun. The last-minute partnership of Sophie Bukovec and Heather Bansley popped off for one more 600 factors on the Saquarema Problem with a fifth-place end. That got here on the heels of a silver medal in Recife. In the identical two weeks that Brazil’s race has leapt nearer to the end line, Bukovec and Bansley’s race has leapt eight spots within the Olympic rankings, drawing ever-nearer to Canada’s No. 2, Sarah Pavan and Molly McBain.
