Olympic Beach Volleyball Rankings No. 7 for the 2024 Paris Games

The Olympic race for the 2024 Paris Olympic Games officially began in February in Doha, Qatar, with the Volleyball World Elite16. The final event is yet to be determined, but the qualification period will conclude on June 9, 2024. We’ll be providing these updates for the Beach Volleyball Olympic rankings throughout the next two years.

By virtue of their gold medal finish Sunday at the Volleyball World Jurmala Challenge, Melissa Humana-Paredes and Brandie Wilkerson moved up from No. 14 to No. 9 in the Olympic beach volleyball rankings. Australians Zachery Schubert and Thomas Hodges jumped from No. 23 to 14 with their first gold medal as a team.

Meanwhile, the Brazilian men’s federation, with three teams in the Jurmala semifinals, now has three teams — George Wanderley and Andre Loyola, Evandro Goncalves and Arthur Mariano, Renato Lima and Vitor Felipe — in the top five, similar to the dominance shown by the American women.
