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.

Motoki leads Japanese trio to Worlds finals

By Vinay Siwach

ZAGREB, Croatia (September 17) -- After a slightly subdued start to its Women's Wrestling, Japan managed to show up at the World Championships.

Japan put three wrestlers in the final out of the four weight classes that were in action on Wednesday in Zagreb. Olympic champion Sakura MOTOKI (JPN) remained on course for her first world title at 62kg while Haruna MURAYAMA (JPN) and Ami ISHII (JPN) will look to add to their world titles at 53kg and 68kg.

Motoki was up against former world champion Orkhon PUREVDORJ (MGL) in the semifinals and she began with a four-pointer. Purevdorj got a reversal but that was all she managed in the match as Motoki kept coming up with different ways to score the takedowns. At 10-1, she scored another four-pointer to win 14-1 and enter her second world final.

For the elusive gold, she will face Ok Ju KIM (PRK) who pinned Amina TANDELOVA (UWW) in the other semifinal after building a 14-3 lead.

Murayama, a three-time world champion, will wrestle for her fourth world title after she won a close semifinal against Hyogyong CHOE (PRK). Both traded activity points but Murayama had a stepout which proved to the be difference as she won 2-1.

On Thursday, she will face Olympic silver medalist Lucia YEPEZ (ECU) in the final after the Ecuadorian defeated world bronze medalist ANTIM (IND), 5-3, majorly with four-pointer in the first period and protecting her lead.

Yepez hit a duck under to throw Antim for four and gave up a reversal to lead 4-1 in the break. The Indian tried to find the opening but she only got one in the final 10 seconds after giving up a takedown. Yepez was happy to give up that final takedown as it did not affect her win and only changed the score to 5-3.

Ecuador, a country which did not have a world finalist till Tuesday, now has two. Yepez is the second on consecutive day after Genesis REASCO (ECU) entered the 76kg final to create history.

World 72kg champion Ishii, who dropped down to 68kg this year, took a step closer to her second world title after she bullied through two Olympic medalist in quarterfinals and semifinals.

Ishii dominated silver medalist from Paris Kennedy BLADES (USA), 12-2, and had a similar match against bronze medalist against Buse TOSUN (TUR) in the semifinals.

Ishii was straight to work in the semifinal with a four-pointer as Tosun landed on her back despite controlling Ishii's legs. Turkiye challenged that scoring but lost it, giving one more point to Ishii.

She scored three different takedowns to finish the match 11-0 inside the first period and enter her second world final.

Yuliana YANEVA (BUL) will look to stop Ishii from winning the gold medal after she upset world 65kg champion Jia LONG (CHN) in the semifinal. Yaneva fell behind 1-1 on criteria but scored a takedown with around one minute and 30 seconds on the clock to lead 3-1.

From there on, Long was on the backfoot and a win seemed further away as she was cautioned for a point for locking fingers. As she tried to trip Yaneva, the Bulgarian blocked her and got the winning takedown for a 6-1 win.

At 72kg, multiple age-group world medalist Nesrin BAS (TUR) managed to reach her first-ever senior world final after she won a thrilling semifinal against Zelu LI (CHN), 9-6.

Bas scored a four-pointer using a whizzer to lead 4-1 at the break. Li scored a takedown to begin the second period but Bas elevated her leg from the front to score two points and lead 6-3. Turkiye challenged the call and the scored for reversed to 8-4. Li tried to mount a comeback from there but she managed only two points while Bas scored a reversal to win 9-6.
