then Vicente had to be called to sit in the calling room

 

but yeah, not that I really care so much, so, yeah, whatever

no, replacements can only be made until an hour before the start of the actual competition...if you get injured in the last warmup when you're already on the track there's no way to call up the reserve man/woman/transexual

Dariya Derkach would be unstoppable if it was a bowling match, but unfortunately, it's the triple jump final and X X X X X gets you nowhere :/ 

 

 

 

 

Sidenote: being the second best European with 14.36, really makes you think what happened to our continent.

[Josh 7,970]

No medal for  Lafond 

[Josh 7,970]

 Rojas comes up clutch in the final round, producing a mark of 15.08m to win gold in the women's triple jump.  Bekh-Romanchuk wins silver in 15.00m, and  Perez Hernandez wins bronze in 14.96m.

 

 Ricketts 4th in 14.92m,  Lafond 5th with a new NR of 14.90m, and  Povea 6th in 14.87m.

 

An excellent final.

World Athletics really need to provide the medalists with their national flag to celebrate. The Venezuelan flag used by Rojas is tiny compared to the Ukrainian and Cuban. Flag envy is real!

Some might say that it's not the size that matters

It’s up to the fans & coaches though.
