Quality  dive in the water jump there! 
 

Quick-thinking Italian medics immediately pour more water on her!  

well, you can make all the irony, but she actually needed (and asked for) some cold water on her body to get her temperature down, as she was suffering for a heat stroke (also her teammate beside her was immediately calling for that)

Oh, yes it was my bad taste joke. She had completely collapsed over the water jump barrier.

yes, she was already having trouble at the beginning of the last lap and quickly got worse...when she came to the last water jump she didn't have anything left in the tank anymore...

I really don't like this new qualification based on time. You can win your heat and still not qualify. What if the wind changes and allows another heat better conditions? At the very least the winner and the 2nd place should automatically get a Q. 

They could mess up things even more and do what noone does- add some repechages to it! Noone does it… oh, wait…

Discus not going to predictions at all.

Piotr Małachowski in the studio says Weissheidinger has a different technique from others as if he doesn't generate torque from the plant leg and it comes from the actual leg swing... apparently he nailed it this time and moves up to 2nd place.

it's because the actual shot put and discus throw qualifiers have been rescheduled once the original session (that should have been held yesterday in the small but scenographic stadium "delle Statue" used from Today for the warmup) was cancelled (too late) from the final program

 

Why did that happen?

How many heptathletes will finish the competition ? Not persuaded it will be even a double digit
