Well that was a bit of a disappointing evening session, with Parchment and the false starts and a bit of a mediocre pole vault final  

 

Luckily the final few shot put throws and the women's 100m made up for it.

Neither Alekna, nor Gudžius bombed out of the discus, good enough start

It's a tad annoying that the graphics with the world rankings, show the world rankings for the athletes in the individual events in the heptathlon, which is useless, instead of their heptathlon ranking.

The heptathlon ranking doesn't work quite well in each individual event either since you could be the best in the world overall, but relatively weak in that specific event.

 

I'd revamped it where I'd show the overall ranking and the individual event ranking, but only among heptathlon athletes.
