And apparently other teams already knew about this, so one might still wonder: is there no possiblity that the fault lies with Botswana's team? Or is it IAAF's fault because they are the big bad federation, so by definition in a case like this it's their fault? 

I wouldn't call them big bad federation but definitely unfairly selective in terms of punishments and incentives.

Assefa's hopes are growing

Looks like Malone will easily make the final with 6.52. Griva and Panagi looking good too, a lot of outsiders.

They are going to tighten the rules related to proving the ties between the athlete and their new 'homeland'

And now Panagi is 13th, needs something bigger in the last jump
