Name: Luis Brethauer
Number in Rio: 572
Country: Germany
Result: 15th

When was the point for you that you thought you had a good chance of going to the 2016Olympics in Rio?
Luis Brethauer: Pretty much directly after the London Olympics I set myself the goal to qualify for Rio. But because of the injuries I had in the qualification years, sometimes I wasn’t really sure about my chances to actually represent Germany another time. But through the end of 2015 it started to look pretty good that I’ll get the one spot through the individual ranking.
