| * Joseph Chung and Kate French, both Great Britain, achieved a top three finishing position to qualify for Tokyo 2020. In both cases, however, the athlete had already previously qualified, and so their quota is vacated, and added to the quotas to be awarded on world ranking points at the end of the qualification period.[2] | |
