NUR-SULTAN, Kazakhstan (Thursday, September 5) – United World Wrestling has received and reviewed the final entry lists for each of the 100 nations attending the 2019 Senior Wrestling World Championships in Nur-Sultan.

For ease of use, the entry lists are attached in excel form, but also made available online via Google Sheets. Online users can filter and arrange the information using the “Data” dropdown, or the Filter icon on the upper right-hand side of the document. This will help any press to easily find athletes by country, style, or weight as well as provide the full and correct spelling of their name.

Please note that some countries have entered two athletes in the official entry list. This is to preserve their spot as training partners in the event hall. The full media guide, released on Monday, will include expected lineups and top seeds.

PARIS (July 27) -- United World Wrestling and International Olympic Committee Executive Board member Nenad LALOVIC visited Sorbonne in Paris last week. IOC President Thomas BACH along with the IOC EB visited Sorbonne, the place where the IOC EB was first founded.

Pierre de Coubertin, the father of the modern Olympics, and the EB met in Sorbonne 130 years ago to found the IOC in Paris.

Before the 2024 Paris Olympics which began July 26, the current IOC EB revisited the same room where it all began.

Lalovic was first elected as an IOC member in 2015 for an eight-year term. He was re-elected unanimously at the 141st IOC session in Mumbai in 2023 for a new eight-year term.

As an IOC EB member, Lalovic was first elected in 2018 and then re-elected in 2022 in Beijing for a four-year term. He also serves on the WADA Executive Committee and the ASOIF Council.
