mspart Posted January 16, 2023 Posted January 16, 2023 Is Deglane not a prestigious enough tourney to get our world team there? Any one of our FS World Team? I see Cox but he is going 97Kg which answers the question on his thoughts on the weight class matter. It is great that we have so many going, hopefully not just participating. Great lineup but would like to see more A-listers. mspart

Just kind of who from the world shows up in a particular year, no?

I suspect that's where the World Team is focusing its efforts. 1
mspart Posted January 16, 2023 Posted January 16, 2023 I guess so. The Yarygin is one of those that is pretty prestigious. Why doesn't everyone show up to these tourneys? That's my point. Steel sharpens steel. That sort of thing. I get the injury angle, I would just like to see more wrestling in the international circuit. mspart
LJB Posted January 16, 2023 Posted January 16, 2023 the only international tourneys that makes sense to send our women's style reps are the ranking tourneys... there just is not enough value outside of those to send our best... our greco guys any tourney could have value...

As a passing note, I've been to Zagreb. Never got off the plane as it was heading to my final destination. Can't even say I set foot there but I did land there. mspart

Mike Parrish Posted January 16, 2023 Posted January 16, 2023 I get the feeling there won't be another Yarygin tournament for a long while.

That could be. If I was USAW, I'd be funding it? They have plenty of money to fund that kind of stuff. I think there would have to be criteria to the funding as in a World medal or something like that. Not just sending anyone. mspart

We might be seeing the destruction of Russia sport, writ large.
LJB Posted January 16, 2023 Posted January 16, 2023 i have no clue if the UWW "owns" rights to that tourney, but, it clearly was a UWW sanctioned event previously and would not exist as such now... regardless, they are still wrestling in russian no matter what ridiculous ban is being imposed on their athletes, so, i can not see any reason an athlete could not go over for whatever they wanted as long as they are ok with some online whining that would inevitably come from someone with an agenda...
