  olympian Jayden Ulrich takes the world lead with 66.14,an almost two meter pr in Florida,looked like there was some helpful wind,but that is the name of the game,5th best discus throw of all time in  ncaa history.

 it's most likely gonna be a world lead for a very short time considering Valerie Allman is scheldued to open her season up at the texas relays.

Good.

 

World Athletics has approved the introduction of a test to determine if an athlete is biologically female.

Those wishing to compete in women's competition will need to complete the "pre-clearance requirement" once in their career.

Be interesting to see if this goes to CAS and/or faces legal issues and chaotic protests in support and against in certain countries. There is already talk of rival demonstrations in favour and against at London Diamond League this summer.

Certainly when the Left are involved only a fool expects anything in the way of peaceful, orderly and dignified protests.

The 300m hurdles will become an official event 

[Biathlonfan 842]

64.83m from 16 YEAR OLD Ziyi Yan  for a new world junior javelin record.....which she already owned.

[Biathlonfan 842]

Valerie Allman with the world lead now as predicted but really not by much at all-66.72. Hopefully she will be in Ramona .

[Biathlonfan 842]

Lachlan Kennedy had a huge pb to beat gout gout over  200 meters at the maurie plant meet .

[Biathlonfan 842]

 Matt Denny threw 68.17,possibly not what he was looking for his final meet before ramona,but we'll see how that goes.
