Impressive result for Vetter, good job, I hope that he will broke WR yet in this year 

 

 

Again few good results in Chorzów, Ennaoui finally run under 4 minutes on 1500m, Andrejczyk in javelin throw 65.70 her second best result in career  

 

And on men's 800m everyone except winner Rotich scores their season best

97.76 m!

Also had 94.84 m, which is also better than anyone else except Zelezyn has ever thrown. 
Vetter said that it would have gone over 100 m if it wouldn’t have been in a closed stadium.

Edit: He improved his own German record by 3.32 m.

 

I feel really sorry for him, he can only lose at this point. Unless he wins Olympic gold next year everyone will say that he messed up.

Finally a great result in athletics you don’t consider suspicious 

?

Sad to see that you have nothing better to do with your life than trolling.

How many world records will be broken? Crouser and Warholm might finally do it, not so sure about Barega.

I'd say likely for Warholm given his constant improvements, guess this race will conclude in season in fashion. As for Crouser the WR could show up at every meet, maybe even more in a "weaker" one, with ONE perfect throw to seal the deal ...

'Likely' might be a bit much for a world record that's as tight as this one, although it is absolutely possible. I hope he won't, I'd like to be able to see it live (and a bigger event would be nice)  

 

Crouser will do it in some lame US backyard meet.

Sam Kendricks needed 3 attempts at 5.24

[Grassmarket 4,305]

38.56 WL,for Femke Bol in the Ostrava 300m hurdles.

[hckošice 16,629]

Femke Bol won the 300 Hurdles in WL 38.55  ahead of Emma Zapletalová 38.97 PB this girl looks good really really good, I really start to be confident we will have historic participation at the Olympics in W 400 H.
