Watch Jonatan Hellvig and David Åhman talk about the Olympic rules in the player above.
World Championship silver, European Championship gold and great results in the World Tour. In addition, Jonatan Hellvig and David Åhman are nominated for the Jerring Prize.
The beach volleyball duo has had a successful year behind them.
But Hellvig and Åhman are still not quite ready for the Olympics in Paris in 2024 – despite the fact that they have been selected by the Swedish Olympic Committee (SOC) and that they have enough qualifying points.
"Should be enough for us to sign up"
"It's not entirely official. The qualification rules work so that we have to play twelve competitions together during the qualification period to be allowed to play in the Olympics, says Jonatan Hellvig in the Morning Studio and adds:
"So far, we've only played nine.
But the duo expect to play at least three more events before the Olympics, which begin on July 26 in Paris.
"It should be enough for us to go there and sign up and we can secure the ticket," says David Åhman, laughing.
