Lol I think 3 times: 22.36 m by Crouser in round 1, then 22.90 m by Walsh in round 1 and then 22.91 m by Kovacs in round 6. Edit: But i think there were 7 throws past the old championship record (1 by Kovacs, 4 by Crouser, 1 by Walsh and 1 by Romani) Edited October 5, 2019 by OlympicsFan szy123 1 Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

Yeah it's really crap to be honest. Schedules should always be spaced out as best as possible so that athletes are encouraged to try to double up. Hassan though did a special double here which was nice to see. szy123 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just imagine at one world championships it takes 2.30 m to win a medal in men's high jump and 4 years later it takes 2.42 m. Technique improved, that's all. Like the Flosbury Flop in High Jump rocketed the heights by default. Athletes finally understood power isn't as important anymore. 1,80m guys rotating > 2.05 guys using the old push-off. Elemba couldn't even reach 20m in quals using the push-off technique. Majewski retired at the right moment and Storl is pretty much cooked as well.
