Watch the WBSC Premier 12 baseball tournament, which also serves as an Olympic qualifying event.

Canada's hopes of earning an Olympic baseball berth at the Premier 12 tournament ended after it was eliminated from the tournament with a 3-1 loss to Australia on Friday in Seoul.

The defeat left Canada with a 1-2 record in its group. The top two teams advance. South Korea (3-0) won the group. Australia and Cuba also went 1-2, but the Aussies got second place by way of a tiebreaker.

Another qualifier, featuring just teams from the Americas, will be played in March for a spot in the six-team Olympic tournament in Tokyo next summer. There's also a final world qualifier after that.

The 12-team, $5.2-million US tournament runs Nov. 2-17, also serves as a 2020 Tokyo Olympic qualifier. One spot goes to the highest-placed finisher from the Americas and one will be awarded to the highest finisher in the Super Round/Finals from the Asia/Oceania region.
