OlympicsFan 782 Posted October 2, 2019 #2821 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Disgusting result in men's hammer throw. Another medal for a (confirmed) doper. I feel sorry for the french people that they are represented by someone like him. Also nice by Fajdek to set himself up for another monster choke at the olympics next year. Expected gold for DAS in the absence of SMU, SAFP, Ta Lou and Thompson. I don't see her winning more than a bronze medal next year, so this probably was a once in a lifetime chance for her. Looking at the other girls in the final i would say that she is the only one with a realistic chance to make the final in Tokyo next year. Absolutely ridiculous to see that 22.51 is enough for bronze, very hard to imagine this not being the worst medal winning performance here. Schippers will probably cry herself to sleep tonight, considering that she probably could have run 22.51 on one leg. Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Debbie Ferguson's time was 22.52 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

European record is still 44.35 or something - there are dozens of guys out there better than that. Sure ... in reality 44.35 would mean a 9th place in the world this year Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.
