Yea I think it is, because it depends on athletes qualified not athletes qualified + wildcards.

D ...

They technically had 3 men and 3 women, but it looks like BWF gave them to other countries based on rankings.  They did it for last Olympics too as only Zambia I think was given a wild card.

I doubt it, because Serbia qualifies athletes in many other sports.

I think Namibia or Jordan will get a WC

Bhutan received its second wild card, this time in shooting, women's 10m air rifle. Looks like they are finally developing, for the last 28 years they have competed only in archery.

Wow Bhutan now will now compete in 3 sports.

Congrats to Bhutan.  I've been purposely not including shooting wild cards until something more official has been produced.

• Maria Dunn (Women's 63kg Freestyle)
• Ali Nadhim Salman (Men's 120kg Greco-Roman)

Congrats to the wrestlers.  Iraq becomes the first country to get 2 wild card spots and given their unluckyness of qualifying this probably won't be their last.

Wild Cards in Triathlon

• Herve Banti (Men's) Source
  

Apparently only this athlete is eligible for an invitation right now.


Wild Cards in Gymnastics

• Quazi Syque Caesar (Men's Artistic) Source
  
  

No invitations were awarded for any other event. According to the procedure for quota reallocation, Vietnam got the last spot (and second for the country) in Women's Artistic, while in Trampoline the first reserves - Belarus in men's and UZB in women's - receive the non-used invitation. As for Rhythmic Gymnastics, no invitation was issued, giving preference to continental representation.
