World Athletics Announces Qualification System for LA28 Olympic Athletics Events
World Athletics has announced the qualification system for athletics at the Los Angeles 2028 Olympics, scheduled from July 15 to 30. The program includes 23 men's, 23 women's, and two mixed events, with the 4x100m mixed relay debuting. The dual-pathway qualification model allocates 40% of places through entry standards and 60% via world rankings. Qualification windows vary by event, and meeting entry standards does not guarantee a spot if quotas are exceeded, prioritizing top performances during the period.
