OlympicsFan 776 Posted July 25, 2017 #24 Share Posted July 25, 2017 Sad that Germany is missing so many of its top athletes, for example Moguenara, Mihambo, Elbe, C. Harting, Schwanitz, 3 of them would have been medal contenders in top shape. Add the retirement of Obergföll, Stahl and Heidler and there arent too many medal chances left for Germany. I also think some of the selections are very weird: Küster (womens hammer throw) and Hering (womens 800 m) have clearly a worse chance to make the next round than Spelmeyer (womens 400 m) or Graumann (womens high jump), but nevertheless invitations for Spelmeyer/Graumann were apparently rejected by the german federation. I also would have liked to see some young talents in the team, just to get some experience, for example K. Kwadwo (in womens 4x100 relay), C. Schwab (in womens 4x400 relay) or Lita Baehre in mens pole vault (i think he didnt get the entry standard, so i cant blame the german federation here).

(Serious question) I dont think that Semenya will get the double gold and i still dont think that Semenya will do the 1500 m 100%, especially if it takes place before the 800 m. If this becomes another jogfest with a very fast 800, then Semenya would be the favorite, but if the girls go for sub 4 pace, Semenya shouldnt have a chance to win it. Muir, Hassan, Kipyegon and Dibaba all have a PB that is at least 5 seconds faster than that of Semenya.
