Details of the 2017 World Championship Seeding System

By United World Wrestling Press

CORSIER-SUR-VEVEY (April 10) -- United World Wrestling has approved a seeding of the top four athletes in each weight category at the 2017 World Championships in Paris. The seeding is based on the results of the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio (BRA), the 2016 Senior World Championship in Budapest (HUN) and the 2017 Senior Continental Championships

The points will be awarded as follows:

*If a weight category only has one bronze medal (by example Nordic System), the athlete ranked in the fourth place will get 7 points.

The number of participants for each event also effects the points calculation. For instance, if at 70 kg, there were 40 participants at the World Championships, the world champion will receive 25 + 40 pts = 65 points. This way, competitions with many participants will award more points than the ones with fewer participants.

An athlete only receives points within the weight class they participated at the Olympic Games, World Championship and the Continental Championship. Seeding is also linked directly to the athlete, not the national federation. If the National Wrestling Federation replaces the concerned athlete, they will lose this position and the conventional drawing-of-lots shall be administered.

Position of the top seed athletes in the bracket

N°1:     He/She will be paired at the first position of the bracket (top of the upper part)
N°2:     He/She will be paired at the last position of the bracket (bottom of the lower part)
N°3:     He/She will be paired at the top of the lower part of the bracket
N°4:     He/She will be paired at the bottom of the upper part of the bracket

If there is a qualification round, the top seeded athletes will be paired last. If the number of athletes oblige the top seeds to participate in the qualification round then it will progress from N°4, N°3, N°2 and then N°1.

Example of a bracket with 17 to 32 athletes:

If the number of registered athletes is between 17 and 28, the top seeds athletes won’t have a qualification round. The bouts of the qualification round will be paired from the bottom to the top of the bracket by avoiding the top seeds.

  • If 29 athletes are registered, the top seed N°4 will participate in the qualification round.
  • If 30 athletes are registered, the top seed N°4 and N°3 will participate in the qualification round.
  • If 31 athletes are registered, the top seeds N°4, N°3 and N°2 will participate in the qualification round.
  • If 32 athletes are registered, we will have the perfect number and the competition will start from the 1/16 of finals for all the athletes.

This system will be also followed for the bracket with 9 to 16 athletes.

If one or several top seeds athlete(s) is not entered (replaced or not registered), the next top seed will take his place. No other athlete will be able to replace a top seed. Wrestlers shall be paired off in the order of the numbers they drew. 

Freestyle Rankings

Women's Wrestling

Greco-Roman Rankings

 

تعداد شرکت کنندگان هر وزن نیز بر محاسبه امتیازات تاثیرگذار است. برای مثال اگر در وزن 70 کیلوگرم 40 شرکت کننده در مسابقه‌های جهانی حضور داشته باشند قهرمان جهان 65=40+25 امتیاز دریافت می‌کند. در این سیستم مسابقه‌هایی که تعداد شرکت کنندگانش بیشتر باشد امتیاز بیشتری دارد.

 

هر کشتی‌گیر تنها در هر وزنی که در مسابقه‌های المپیک، جهانی و قاره‌ای شرکت کرده باشد، امتیازاتش در همان وزن محاسبه می‌شود. همچنین این سیدبندی مربوط به خود کشتی‌گیر می‌شود و به فدراسیون ملی او ارتباطی نخواهد داشت. اگر فدراسیون کشتی یک کشور فرد دیگری را جایگزین کشتی‌گیر مربوطه کند، موقعیت کشتی‌گیر قبلی در سیدبندی از بین می‌رود و کشتی گیر جایگزین شده به صورت قرعه‌کشی در مسابقه‌ها شرکت می‌کند.

 

موقعیت چهار کشتی‌گیر برتر در جدول هر وزن به ترتیب زیر است:

 

کشتی‌گیر شماره یک در سیدبندی: این کشتی‌گیر در مکان نخست قسمت بالایی جدول قرار می‌گیرد.

 

کشتی‌گیر شماره دو در سیدبندی: این کشتی‌گیر در مکان آخر از قسمت پائینی جدول قرار می‌گیرند.

 

کشتی‌گیر شماره سه در سیدبندی: این کشتی‌گیر در مکان نخست قسمت پایینی جدول قرار می‌گیرد.

 

کشتی‌گیر شماره چهار در سیدبندی: این کشتی‌گیر در مکان آخر از قسمت بالای جدول قرار می‌گیرد.

 

اگر دور مقدماتی نیز لازم به انجام مسابقه باشد، کشتی‌گیران برتر سیدبندی در پایین قرار می‌گیرند. اگر تعداد کشتی‌گیران شرکت کننده طوری باشد که چهار کشتی‌گیر برتر سیدبندی شده مجبور به حضور در دور مقدماتی باشند، به ترتیب از کشتی‌گیر چهارم تا نخست مبارزه خواهند کرد.

 

برای مثال جدولی که 17 تا 32 کشتی‌گیر در آن حضور دارند به ترتیب زیر است:

 

اگر تعداد شرکت کنندگان بین 17 تا 28 نفر است 4 کشتی‌گیر برتر سیدبندی، در دوره‌های نخست مسابقه نخواهند داد. بنابراین مسابقه‌های مقدماتی از انتها به بالای جدول خواهد بود تا کشتی‌گیران سیدبندی شده در دور نخست مسابقه ندهند.

 

اگر مسابقه‌ها 29 شرکت کننده داشته باشد تنها کشتی‌گیر شماره 4 سیدبندی در دور مقدماتی شرکت می‌کند.

 

اگر مسابقه‌ها 30 شرکت کننده داشته باشد، نفرات شماره 3 و شماره 4 سیدبندی در دور مقدماتی شرکت می‌کنند.

 

اگر مسابقه‌ها 31 شرکت کننده داشته باشد، کشتی‌گیران چهارم، سوم و دوم سیدبندی در دور مقدماتی شرکت می‌کنند.

 

اگر مسابقه‌های 32 شرکت کننده داشته باشد، تعداد نفرات کامل است و همه کشتی‌گیران از مرحله یک شانزدهم نهایی مسابقه‌های خود را انجام می‌دهند.

 

اگر یکی از 4 کشتی‌گیر برتر سیدبندی شده در مسابقه‌ها شرکت نکند و یا کشتی‌گیر دیگری جایگزین او شده باشد، نفر بعدی در سیدبندی جای او را خواهد گرفت و کشتی‌گیر دیگری نمی‌تواند جایگزین نفری که شرکت نکرده است شود.

Stanich proves doubters wrong, wins U20 world title

By Vinay Siwach

SAMOKOV, Bulgaria (August 18) -- Luke STANICH (USA) is aware that many did not back him to make the U.S. team, forget about winning a medal in international tournament.

"I love it," Stanich said. "If you have to prove everyone wrong, I feel great. I've always been doubted at tournaments. Even after I won the tournament, the U.S. Open, people still didn't have me making the team. I've been dealing with this forever, but just motivation, just to prove people wrong."

Stanich proved many doubters wrong by winning the gold medal at 65kg at the U20 World Championships in Samokov, Bulgaria on Tuesday. In the final, Stanich kept an inspired Reiji UCHIDA (JPN) under control and won 4-3 to claim the world title.

Uchida brought the Japanese style of wrestling with constant leg attacks but Stanich had all the answered and scored two takedowns to remain in control of the final

"I knew it was my match to wrestle," he said. "He was strong and quick, but I knew what kind of attacks he was looking for. I had confidence in my offense and my defense."

Perhaps it was his confidence that helped him recover from an 8-0 deficit in his first bout against Abdullah TOPRAK (TUR) and make a run to win the gold medal. Toprak scored a takedown and gut-wrenched Stanich three times to lead 8-0 and put all his effort into a fourth turn. However, Stanich defend that and rallied to beat a tired Toprak 18-8.

In his next match, Stanich managed to hold off 2024 world U17 champion  Omurbek ASAN UULU (KGZ), 9-3, and then had a close 3-3 win over Alessandro NINI (ITA) in the quarterfinals. He had European U20 and U23 champion Amal DZHANDUBAEV (UWW) in the semifinals but a solid defense helped him win 3-1 and enter the final.

"I said that right after the first match ended," he said. "I was like, 'wow! Once I go on this run and win this tournament, it can be pretty crazy story to tell that I was down 8-0 in the very first match, the tournament. I came back to win it.

"Super proud of my effort and able to storm back like that and get on the top podium."

Stanich said that standing on top of the podium was one of the most memorable moments of his career and called his run as 'gritty'.

"Gritty, being tough and breaking people."

Another U.S. wrestler in the final, William HENCKEL (USA), was not able to complete his campaign with a gold medal after dropping the final 8-6 against returning bronze medalist and senior Asian champion Mahdi YOUSEFI (IRI).

Henckel was leading the final bout but Yousefi scored a stepout to make a 4-3 lead. Yousefi scored two stepouts and a takedown while Henckel scored three stepouts and a caution against Yousefi who  defended his lead in the last 30 seconds.

This was the first gold medal for Iran in this World Championships.

At 57kg, Magomed OZDAMIROV (UWW) survived a strong Sumit MALIK (IND) and won the gold medal 8-5. Ozdamirov needed a few medical timeouts to regain his breath against Malik, who could not finish even one of his attempted takedowns.

Uzbekistan won gold medal at the World U20 Championships after three years as Asian U20 champion Sherzod POYONOV (UZB) scored a takedown during his activity time to beat returning bronze medalist Kamil KURUGLIYEV (KAZ), 3-2, in the 92kg final.

Incidentally, the last time an Uzbekistan wrestler won gold at World U20s was also in Bulgaria when Umidon JALOLOV (UZB) won 65kg gold medal in 2022.
