The math is done and if Dmitri Polyansky from Russia places 14th or higher in Richard's Bay World Cup this weekend, the USA loses that third men's Olympic triathlon start line slot.

ITU released the answer to my math question in this press release.

See yesterday's blog for more details.

Well, you were right, Gale. Polyansky placed 7th. So right now, the US only has two slots (Though Matt Reed had a great race, sprinting down to the wire to take second. Good sign for Beijing, right?).

So how can the Americans win back our third spot?
