Still a lot of opportunities to flop (hurdles, high jump, pole vault).

Edit: The previous ranking apparently was wrong (sadly the calculator on the german athletics website seems to use wrong points tables):

Apparently the actual ranking for the best first day in decathlon looks like this:

4743 Warner

4738 O'Brien

4736 O'Brien

4728 Eaton

4722 Warner

 

Don't see Neugebauer getting into the top 5, but maybe he has a shot at getting to 4700 points.

 

When Mayer set his world record he only had 4563 points after day 1, which is only the 69th best first day ever.

How nice of you. Canada already has 2 (extremely surprising) golds, how about you leave something for others ... :mad:

After the Eugene 2022 fiasco, and so many countless years of being at the top, Damian Warner really deserves to win that long-awaited World Championships gold medal. 

 

Was nice to see Rogers & Katzberg complete the double for Canada in hammer throw, but if I had a choice to choose a gold medalist (which I don't) I would easily pick Warner over both Katzberg & Rogers.

Also because a decathlon (or heptathlon) title is a bit more....prestigious, from a global perspective, compared to a niche event like hammer throw (nothing against it personally, but you know) :d

Never understood this "hype" about decathlon, not sure if decathlon is really more prestigious. I never heard anyone say that modern pentathlon or triathlon are more prestigious than swimming/cycling/running/equestrian/fencing/shooting.

What happened to Kazmirek ? Is he now behind Eitel for the 3rd spot?

I personally always enjoy watching Decathlon/heptathlon , they add something extra from a viewing perspective than a normal field event. 
The joy of always calculating points after each event is unmatched!

Jamaica's Andrew Hudson has been given a discretionary place in the 200m final tonight after a buggy collision left him with shards of glass in his eye 💥

Kazmirek had a difficult year with an injury, and Eitel a pretty good one. So yes, Eitel is currently better than Kazmirek.
