Every false starts gets a yellow here,

because a false start means starting (= losing contact with the plates or ground ), not any small movement recorded by the sensors.

Not sensational from Mayer 10.72 but I’m sure he’s glad to be doing anything.

Yeah, but the problem is that unless you are strict on Day 1 then almost every race you get a mess almost every race.

 

As I always say, you NEVER* see false starts in swimming because everyone knows that there is no second chance.

 

 

* OK, maybe from the Afghans or Congolese who don’t know the system.

he is at the end of his career, we must follow Makenson Gletty, he is our new hope

Huge mess in the second 1500m heat.  Big fall on the last lap.  Judges going to be busy.

These championships are such joke.

Mayer only took one long jump, so obviously not going to overdo things.

 

Gletty 2 PBs!

Considering the number of decathlons he actually achieved in his carrer, I'd say he is still a U23 athlete

Olympic minimums are possible for Makenson Gletty and Kevin Mayer
