I think this was the worst event were results still are nowhere to be found, at least correct and complete results. How is this possible?

Here you should find the (perhaps ...) complete results ... Groeten uit Fabio !

That's what I call "long-term bet"

Ca. 31.000 spectators at the Kamila Skolimowska Memorial in Chorzow tonight. That's pretty impressive! (free tickets and a great weather surely helps ).

 

Gudzius 66,15 in the discus so far. Lisek vs Barber for PV win at 5.85 (Lavillenie & Wojciechowski out at 5.80)

[Monzanator 4,606]

100m: Ronnie Baker 9,87 WL (-0,1 wind)

 

2. Mike Rodgers, 3. Guliyev.

Caster Semenya wins 400m in 50,06

 

2. Swiety-Ersetic 51,45.

My bet on Wozniacki to win a Grand Slam took me 7-8 years to be paid out

Disappointed, did she save for the 800 and/or 1500 meter?  

[Monzanator 4,606]

Christian Taylor - the triple-jumper - just finished 3rd in the 400m Hurdles

 

Steven Gardiner wins in 44,43 (only 0,02 slower than his silver medal winning run from London last year).
