An update on standings for Japan's potential team at this summer's Paris Olympic Games. Final team nomination in most cases depends on a top 3 finish at the National Track and Field Championships, but as of this writing events where Japan could or will field three athletes having cleared the Olympic standard are the men's 110 mH, men's 400 mH, men's 20 kmRW and women's marathon. Other events that will or are likely to have a complete squad of three athletes include the men's 100 m, men's 200 m, men's 400 m, men's high jump, men's marathon, women's 5000 m, women's 10000 m, women's javelin throw, and women's 20 kmRW.
Main changes from last week:
- Koki Ueyama moved up to 36th of 48 in the men's 200 m quota, passing Shota Iizuka for #2 Japanese man.
- Yuta Sakiyama was 2nd in the men's javelin throw at the Josef Odlozil Memorial in Prague and broke into the Paris quota at 32nd of 32.
- Misaki Morota was 2nd in the women's pole vault at the Royal City Inferno in Canada and also moved up to 32nd or 32.
- Remi Tsuruta moved up 4 spots in the women's 200 m ranking to 53rd, now just 5 places out of the quota.
- Shota Fukuda took 3rd in the men's hammer throw at the Taiwan Athletics Open, moving up from 40th to 38th, still out of the quota of 32 but closer.
- Shingo Sawa inched marginally nearer to the men's pole vault quota, ranking 42nd with 1173 points.
