For 2020's Season 12, the top 3 females in qualifying rounds, and top 2 women in the semi-final rounds advance to the next round, even if they are not in the top 12. There will be no wildcards.
From the qualifying rounds to the 2 semi-final rounds what happened to the following contestants that do not show as having competed?: Julius Ferguson (5th in round 1), Ethan Swanson (2nd in round 2), Rachael Goldstein (who was the 3rd woman in round 3)? And how do Jeri D’Aurelio get to compete in the semi-finals when she wasn’t one of the 3 women?
I had the same questions. My guess is Jeri must have replaced Rachel. But not sure why Ethan and Julius didn’t run. Ethan was shown on another ninja’s run (maybe Michael Torres) via video.
I think Julius Ferguson posted that he got COVID, and Ethan Swanson was in contact with someone that had COVID but couldn’t get his test results in time for the episode. Not sure about Rachael Goldstein, imagine it was something similar though, and they had Jeri D’Aurelio replace her because they wanted 6 women competing.

I think Jeri D’Aurelio might have been a replacement for Pauline Avila, who was unable to compete, but I don’t know for sure.
Ethan Swanson was not able to compete before his coronavirus tests could come back.
