For now he is very much on the way for a top-6 finish if he keeps performing so good as he did so far, which would be incredibly good.

It wasn't poor Apart from one single 14.00m indoor in France once, this was his best throw ever! Remember it's a decathlon, it's not a matter of winning every event Saying that his shot put was poor is like saying Peter Sagan disappointed if he didn't win a time trial on a 20% steep 15km climb Edited August 17, 2016 by heywoodu If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

"first impressions, man, I just arriived and I have just passed the first security check. so you are the first person I met. but you seem like a pleasant person, so my first impressions are good, thank you." btw not sure how to trust it, but in some website he was selected as the second most popular athlete of the olympics in Rio behind Bolt. according to our TV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And i think Taylor could've broke the world record under the right conditions (night time) after seeing how close he got last year in beijing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
