Tokyo Olympics, 82 players have been decided!
The Qualification Tournament (QT) was held in Paris on June 11-13.
This is the final match of the long-term selection process that started in July 2018. It was a fierce and extremely high-level selection event in which 500 people from 98 countries who missed the Olympic standing and host country quota selection competed for 3 quotas in each class.
Based on this result, the following 18 players were added according to the prescribed selection method, and a total of 82 players were decided.
The list of all players is on the following pages.
① 12 representatives from 5 continents
② 2 IOC refugee teams
③ Tr ipart i te committee invitation frame 2 people (initially 4 people)
④ ③ Appropriate Olympic standing runner-up 2 people
In 2016, when the karate competition was officially decided at the IOC session, some of the top players in the world also challenged the final QT, and witnessed a tearful scene in the world of competition. It was a place where I realized the rigor again. I hope that 82 people will showcase the world’s best karate on the stage of their dreams and embody the WKF philosophy of aiming for “perfect harmony between tradition and innovation.”
