Preliminary entries have been posted today (subject to change at the final entry stage, deadline November 6) for 2024 WC in Bahrain, Dec 6-15. Lasha is entered as a reserve, so he might lift in Bahrain on the last day, Sunday Dec 15.
Akbar Djuraev and Yauheni Tsikhantsou are entered at 102, so are Meso and Lesman, plus Nurgissa Adiletuly from Kazakhstan after serving his doping suspension (he led the rankings when he was popped but was suspended for less than two years after arguing a tainted-supplement offence). But there's no Liu Huanhua, and no Olympic champions at all for China. Pei Xinyi and Liao Guifang are both in, along with a lot of newcomers at the WC level.
The women's super-heavy for China, Li Yan, age 20, has a 300 entry total.
There's a surprise at 96. Kianoush Rostami, 2016 Olympic 85kg champion for Iran but dropped from the team for Paris qualifying, is back aged 33. He has the top entry total on 390, for Kosovo. Hoping to find out more about that. He last competed in May 2023.
Kate Vibert and Mattie Rogers are among the USA entries, as are all the others you'd expect to see.
North Korea has a very strong team.
Rizki and Rahmat in ame category, 81, but may not both stay there.
Lots more to digest. More than 1,000 entries at this stage.
