Apparently :ESPOrlando Ortega will receive the 110H bronze medal too.

 

IAAF & European Athletics have confirmed this on twitter.

Wow, IAAF is genoerous. Nowicki, Ortega. They're trying to make some good PR after giving WCh to Qatar

I am unashamed, at getting nothing done.

Is this the first time in history that we have two non-parallel qualifying groups in Shot Put?

 

no, in the past (I mean, 20+ years ago) it was pretty normal to have 2 groups following each other and not running at the same time...

old stadiums not always had 2 shot put rings available...

Don´t know, but probably the first time we have non-parallel Pole Vault Decathlon groups :d

 

also here, it's quite usual that the 2 groups are not parallel, because they have discus throw before that and javelin throw after that which must be ccompleted in different slots, so also the pole vault in normal condition is never perfectly parallel (even because there's always a lot of disparity in terms of results between group A and B, with the one featuring the best specialists usually taking a lot more time than the other)...

Tim Nedow Qualified in Shot Put as well, I wonder how many finalists we will have :lol:

 

exactly 12 :lol: (with the Italian guy being the first among the eliminated putters :facepalm:)

Will be strange if Germany finishes the games without 1 gold

Generally some countries disappeared from athletics while new appreared 

 

Even if Kaul doesnt win gold, Germany still has 3 gold medal chances. It would be disappointing if none of them would become reality.

China has been good in athletics in the past, but now they are super strong with already 8 medals.

Very weird that Kaul just stopped jumping without a single fail. I think he could have jumped over 5.10 m or even 5.20 m. I hope that he wont miss a medal/gold by that margin.

Kaul is only favoured to win by 45 points right now, but Warner has thrown javelin much better this season than they predict (using his PB overall score).  So anything can happen.  

Yeah, I Think it'll be pretty close between Warner, Kaul, Uibo and Shkurenov. Uibo is on fire today.
