Russia gets a place with Khramov being sprint WC I assume, but not sure about the Swiss
Anyway, can't see Krepsta or Pasi finding enough gas out there to break into the top 3, so I'm off to the pub/rugby. Tomorrow everybody?

Do you guys actually watch or spend all your time making comments on here?
To answer Vals question, the short answer is all the individual world champions get a extra spot, the long answer is
"10. Participation and qualification procedure
The International World Games Association (IWGA) has agreed to include three orienteering events in the program of The World Games 2009 in Kaohsiung, Taiwan. There will be two individual events for men and women, (a sprint race and a middle distance race) as well as a mixed team relay.
1. The IWGA has allocated spaces for a total of 40 male and 40 female runners to the IOF.
2. The host nation (Chinese Taipei Orienteering Association) shall have the right to enter 2 + 2 runners. 3. The thirteen (13) best nations, Chinese Taipei excluded, in the 2008 World Orienteering
Bulletin 1 & 2 Orienteering 4
Championships, shall have the right to enter up to 2 + 2 runners based on a ranking system using all three individual format finals and the relay subject to the maximum limitation of Rule 4. The ranking shall be based on the total sum of all final and relay events where 1st place is awarded 100 points, 2nd is awarded 80 points, 3rd is awarded 60 points, 4th is awarded 50 points, 5th is awarded 45 points, 6th is awarded 40 points, 7th is awarded 37 points, 8th is awarded 35 points, 9th is awarded 33 points, 10th is awarded 31 points, 11th place 30 points and subsequent places reduced by one.
4. The 2008 World Champions in Sprint Distance, Middle Distance and Long Distance shall have a personal place that is in addition to their nations allocation.
5. The IOF is authorised to allocate the remaining places up to the total of 40 + 40 runners with a maximum of 3+3 per country, not counting the personal World Champion places. In this context, the IOF will allocate a place for a minimum of 1 man and 1 woman from each of the IOF regions (Africa, Asia, Europe, North America, Oceania, and South America) not having qualified a runner for the World Games by means of points 2, 3 or 4 of these qualification rules and may allocate any remaining places at its discretion."
