    https://chess-results.com/tnr967173....0&zeilen=99999

    Canada is number 50 in Open section and number 26 in Women by average rating.

    Some interesting points about line-ups.

    No Nakamura for USA, no Anand for India, no Gelfand for Israel, no Firouzja for France, no Radjabov for Azerbaijan (he is a captain).

    Carlsen, Ding, Caruana playing.

    Last winner Uzbekistan is number 4 by rating, after USA, India and China. Kramnik serves as a captain (!!).

    No top female players for China, no Muzychuk sisters for Ukraine.

    Are Russians permitted to play - e.g. under the FIDE flag?

      Many former Russian players represent other countries for the Olympiad. Sarana and Predke (Serbia), Vitiugov (England), Fedoseev (Slovenia) - all this players now have or used to have 2700+ rating.
