Swewi 306 Posted August 15, 2022 #171 Share Posted August 15, 2022 7 minutes ago, phelps said: so, Ehammer is leading the Decathlon with a huge margin... and considering that he's good to great in the 110m Hurdles (13.48 PB), pretty good (5.10m PB) in the Pole Vault and not so tragic in the 1500m (4.42.x PB), he only has to survive a very poor discus throw (39m PB) and a modest javelin throw (55m PB) to take the gold medal home... I don't think there's room for Kaul (nor anybody else) for a comeback... I am not so much in to the details but I know Ehammers Pb had a day 1 that was 100p better than the world record so to be in a significant lead was not that surprising. However extreme impressive. Might have won the long jump too phelps 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing as it's not as fashionable as running, jumping or even the physique that javelin throwers tend to have, not many young women athletes are becoming interested in this discipline and even less go pro. Here in Lithuania right now, we have a single athlete that specialises solely on the shot put, the other women are discus throwers first, others are throwing for the sake of heptathlon or are in that age range where they force you to do everything. There was a bit more interest in this discipline, but nearly every prospect retired, I somehow wonder it must be a similar case throughout other countries as well. To emphasise, here are our best shot put attempts from this season: I. Zarankaitė, E. Zarankaitė, Rudytė and Stuglytė that didn't fit in the screenshot are discus throwers. Bačianskaitė, Juškevičiūtė and Vaitaitytė are all heptathletes. Nikiforovaitė is the only one that mainly focuses on shot put, but since she is still u18 level this year, it's highly likely she won't continue that much further as all our shot put prospects quit by the age of 24.
