Suddenly we are better in the throwing events, between crouser (though we been great in shot put for some time now), Price, Allman at Discus and Winkler at Hammer.

Adam Kszczot was a "mystery" DNS at the national champs which means he's out of Tokyo running. He had 5th best SB among Polish 800m anyway. Apparently he's gonna make an "announcement" on Monday which smells like retirement.

Question. Those invitational places, in mens 100m, will be extra places and will not affect on remaining free places for runners who will qualify by ranking, we know that. But this also apply to other disciplines like discus throw?

And runs down Noah Lyles doing it.  He’s 17 yrs old.

 

This was as incredible a night as I can ever remember at US trials.  Four number 2 performers ever, an additional WL in W PV.
