... that the first Icelandic Olympic triathlete, Edda Hannesdóttir, made it to the Olympics after suffering two major injuries in three years and thinking that she had "no chance" of qualifying?
Source: Olymipcs (for first triathlete); World Triathlon ("Injury trouble wiped out a large chunk of Hannesdottir’s 2021 season but she rebounded for the subsequent campaign ... She gave a rueful shake of the head as she knew what came next. 'It was very devastating to get injured at the start of 2023.' At what seemed the worst moment for her Paris hopes, Hannesdottir found herself back under the surgeon’s knife with damage to the ligaments in her hip and down the right side of her leg ... The result was that she had to take a year off from triathlon. Barely a season removed from her rehabilitation in 2021, she was forced to undertake the same road of recovery and watched as her nascent collection of Olympic qualification points seemed to shrink in comparison to the growing piles of others ... I remember sitting in a hotel bed and I thought ‘there’s no chance it’s going to happen.")

All articles meet newness and length requirements. The hook fact for all will be some variation on "was chosen to be flagbearer", which is in all of the articles, and sourced in-line. I have been able to confirm the sources for Grippoli and Nettasinghe, and AGF on the others (two foreign-language, one with an ad banner). The articles are generally well-written and well-sourced, stable, no copyvio detected. QPQ would be needed for 4 of the hook items: 2 complete reviews, and 2 (as 2-in-1) pending have been provided, I take on good faith that the 2-in-1 intends to be seen through. Hook itself is interesting in the scope of the immediate relevance it will have, paired with multiple bold links on different and independently interesting people. All looks good.

@Schwede66: Nope, you're not, that's me reading the new "Number of QPQs required" line and taking 1 off the number of noms. Out of confusion, apparently. One QPQ outstanding. Kingsif (talk) 00:10, 21 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Kingsif: I've just made a hole so that I can promote this set and see that there's another review needed. If you (or anyone else) can be bothered with another review (for Yesügen), please use the talk page of this nomination form. I shall meanwhile promote ALT0, which closes this form. Sorry for that.
