Possibly... So you think they would just take the top GPI ranking players for the year or how do you think they would choose who makes the team?
I have not researched this but in THE Olympics - the national Olympic committee for each country and related sport association selects their players. I guess in some countries the King can dictate to put his nephew/niece on the team!
So, citizenship is a requirement and then that country's committee related to the sport dictates the eligibility rules (as long as they comply with the international olympic eligibility requirements), etc.
If a country had a lot of eligible competitors then they could run a series of qualifying poker tournaments to see who the cream of the crop is.
