Panagiota Dosi and Michail Anastasakis both didn't perform very good, they are out. Polyniki Emmanouilidou did not make the cut in the women's 100m heat, finishing 26th place at 11.25. I knew a personal best of 11.20 or better would have sealed qualification for the semi-finals.

Christos Frantzeskakis in his second Olympic appearance has qualified for the finals in the men's hammer throw at 75.53m.

Congrats to Tatiana Gusin in her Olympic debut has qualified for the finals in the women's high jump at 1.92m.

Antigoni Drisbioti may not have medaled and finished 22nd place, but she is still holding her head high. She announced this was her last Olympic Games ever to compete. She will forever be a legend in Greek race walking. ❤️

Mark my words, both Greek tennis players will NEVER win a Grand Slam title, let alone an Olympic medal.

Apostolos Christou finally got his first Olympic medal and it's silver at the men's 200m backstroke!!! Oh, I just wished he could have gotten another medal from the 100m. Tomorrow, we have three pair rowers competing for the medals and it is possible Greece can achieve them.

Some of the reports from forums are suggesting that Kyriaki Filtisakou is the one who was caught for illegal substance. Wikipedia took her name off from the Athletics section.

For our Greek teams at the Olympic Games, the men's basketball team will play in Group A against Canada, Spain, and Australia. For the men's water polo team, they will play against Romania, Croatia, Montenegro, United States, and Italy. For the women's water polo team, they will play Untied States, Spain, France (Host Nation), and Italy.

101 Greek athletes are heading to Paris. I will not be making predications this time as to who will win medals, things are different from 3 years ago in Tokyo. We just want to see a good showing from our Greek men and women who are competing for our country.

Drisbioti? Or Filtisakou?

Panagiota Dosi is the 14th athlete for Greece to go to Paris as she got her invitation for the Olympic Games.

9 Greek athletes from athletics have qualified for Paris 2024 via world rankings. Polyniki Emmanouilidou (Women's 100 and 200 meters) Tatiana Gusin (Women's High Jump) Stamatia Skarvelis (Women's Hammer Throw) Elina Tzengko (Women's Javelin Throw) Kyriaki Filtisakou (Women's 20 km Race Walk) Eleni Polak (Women's Pole Vault) Ariandi Adamopoulou (Women's Pole Vault) Christos Frantzeskakis (Men's Hammer Throw) Michail Anastasakis (Men's Hammer Throw) Three others missed out from the world rankings, but still could get in by World Athletics Invitation (which takes place July 4-6). Dimitris Tsiamis (Men's Triple Jump) 35th place (top 32 to qualify) Kostas Zaltos (Men's Hammer Throw) 35th place (top 32 to qualify) Panagiota Dosi (Women's High Jump) 33rd place (top 32 to qualify)

In the basketball Olympic qualifier, Greece will be hosting in Piraeus. They will face one of the following countries: Croatia, Egypt, Dominican Republic, New Zealand and Slovenia. Luka Doncic is questionable to play and if he does not get a medical clearance from his doctors regarding on his knee, he will likely sit out.

Latest update on the Greek athletes for the Olympic Games 2024, posted in Greek. Δύο ακόμα μέλη προστέθηκαν στην Ολυμπιακή ομάδα στίβου, σύμφωνα με τις ανανεωμένες λίστες του ranking αυτής της εβδομάδας που έχουν αναρτηθεί στην επίσημη σελίδα της World Athletics. Πρόκειται για την Αριάδνη Αδαμοπούλου στο επί κοντώ και την Σταματία Σκαρβέλη στη σφύρα, απόρροια των πολύ καλών εμφανίσεών τους σε μίτινγκ του εξωτερικού. Οριακά εκτός, στο Νο 33, βρέθηκε ο σφυροβόλος Κώστας Ζάλτος, καθώς δεν αγωνίστηκε αυτήν την εβδομάδα. Για την ώρα, λοιπόν, ο αριθμός των προκρίσεων ανέρχεται στις 14, ενώ υπάρχει μια μικρή ομάδα αθλητών και αθλητριών που είναι οριακά εκτός και ελπίζει να ανέβει στο τρένο την τελευταία στιγμή, με την προϋπόθεση ότι όλοι και όλες θα φτάσουν σε υψηλές επιδόσεις στο Stoiximan Πανελλήνιο Πρωτάθλημα Α/Γ αυτό το Σαββατοκύριακο (29-30/6) στον Βόλο. Το τριήμερο που έρχεται είναι γεμάτο αγώνες σε όλον τον κόσμο, από τα αποτελέσματα των οποίων θα κριθούν οριστικά τα Ολυμπιακά εισιτήρια. Αναλυτικά, η σύνθεση της ελληνικής ομάδας βάσει της τρέχουσας κατάταξης, αλλά και όσοι και όσες απέχουν λιγότερες από δέκα θέσεις από την Ολυμπιακή πρόκριση: Αθλητής/τρια Αγώνισμα Διαθέσιμες Θέσεις Κατάταξη Κατάσταση Πρόκρισης Πολυνίκη Εμμανουηλίδου 100 μ. 56 53 200 μ. 48 39 Τατιάνα Γκούσιν Ύψος 32 20 Παναγιώτα Δόση Ύψος 32 31 Κατερίνα Στεφανίδη Επί Κοντώ 32 12 Όριο Ελένη Πόλακ Επί Κοντώ 32 20 Αριάδνη Αδαμοπούλου Επί Κοντώ 32 31 Σταματία Σκαρβέλη Σφυροβολία 32 32 Ελίνα Τζένγκο Ακόντιο 32 22 Αντιγόνη Ντρισμπιώτη 20 χλμ. βάδην 48 15 Όριο Κυριακή Φιλτισάκου 20 χλμ. βάδην 48 46 Εμμανουήλ Καραλής Επί κοντώ 32 8 Όριο Μιλτιάδης Τεντόγλου Μήκος 32 1 Όριο Χρήστος Φραντζεσκάκης Σφυροβολία 32 13 Μιχάλης Αναστασάκης Σφυροβολία 32 17 Κώστας Ζάλτος Σφυροβολία 32 33 Ελλάδα Βάδην – Μικτή Σκυταλοδρομία 25 27 Αλέξανδρος Παπαμιχαήλ 20 χλμ. βάδην 48 52 Δημήτρης Τσιάμης Τριπλούν 32 37 Χριστίνα Παπαδοπούλου ή Πέννυ Τσινοπούλου* 20 χλμ. βάδην 48 54 Ελισάβετ Πεσιρίδου 100 μ. εμπόδια 40 48 Δήμητρα Γναφάκη 400 μ. εμπόδια 40 49 Μαρία Πούρτσα Τριπλούν 32 41 Αντώνης Μέρλος Ύψος 32 41 * Η Παναγιώτα Τσινοπούλου είναι τέταρτη στην κατάταξη μεταξύ των Ελληνίδων στα 20 χλμ. βάδην, τέσσερις βαθμούς πίσω από την τρίτη Χριστίνα Παπαδοπούλου. Πότε ανακοινώνεται η λίστα με όσους/ες έχουν προκριθεί Η World Athletics θα αναρτήσει τη λίστα με όσους/ες έχουν προκριθεί στις 2 Ιουλίου 2024. Μέχρι τα μεσάνυχτα της 4ης Ιουλίου, η διεθνής ομοσπονδία θα δέχεται επιστολές άρνησης συμμετοχής. Το διήμερο 4-6 Ιουλίου θα γίνει η ανακατανομή των θέσεων στους επιλαχόντες βάσει ranking. Στις 7 Ιουλίου θα αναρτηθεί η τελική λίστα και οι Εθνικές Ολυμπιακές Επιτροπές θα μπορέσουν να δηλώσουν τους αθλητές και τις αθλήτριες πριν από την καταληκτική ημερομηνίας της 8ης Ιουλίου.
