Not every top three finisher at the Trials will head to the Paris Olympics.
This much is straightforward: Except for marathoners, the U.S. Olympic Track and Field Trials is the selection meet for the team that will compete in August at the Paris Olympics.Part of the appeal of the Trials, which will be held June 21-30 in Eugene, Oregon, is its emphasis on high-stakes performances. For the most part, the top three placers in each event will represent the U.S. in Paris.
But while it may have seemed strange in 2012 for the fourth and eighth finishers in the women’s 10,000 to take a victory lap, at least it was known immediately that Uhl and Cherobon-Bawcom were Olympians. In 2024, it’s possible that we might not know the full Olympic team until a week after the Trials.That’s because, in addition to automatic qualifying standards, World Athletics also grants Olympic qualifiers to athletes with a high enough score in its world rankings.
