Apparently Polish team make a protest about the longest throw of American, she probably put her shoe outside circle.

Pretty cool about Yavi

NVESTING HER EARNINGS
Running has made a huge difference in her life and she has been following her father's advice to "invest what you earn because you don't know what's going to happen tomorrow". She owns plots in and around her village and the nearby town and has been building rental houses. She is also involved in charity projects supporting street children.

In spirit to AIN and 2024 Olympics,  should be renamed to IPA : Imported Possibly-Positive Athletes

My highlight of the hammer throw double is probably the way Rogers is describing Katzberg's gold, she seems even more excited about that  

 

In general Rogers' reaction is fantastic, seems like a lovely athlete!

Is that the way to win medal by such champ? I don't like it very much. Maybe we should concentrate on preparations to those games and looking for new young athletes instead of this kind of "russian" tricks.
