Makes sense. When you look at how difficult it is for some of the african runners to get the technique right in the steeplechase, then the high jumping technique would probably be impossible to master for them.

He continues the great tradition of sudanese athletics, now that Farah is gone.
-
No, i wasnt talking about a specific race, but only about a specific nationality, so it cant be racist.
-
You realize what BMI means?
-
Naser isnt much better either, if you look at what happened to her (former) training partners (Adekoya, Ogunode, Francis). I am just sad that Seyni wasnt allowed to compete, she would have been the perfect addition to that race.
-
I think the german coaches should consider changing their talent selection in womens discus throw. The german throwers are all about 7 feet tall with a BMI of under 30, while the top 3 are about 5 feet tall with a BMI of over 40, maybe it isnt a coincidence.

Great success for Cuba, Fidel Castro is very proud! Now Spain should try to naturalize at least one of them.
-
Interesting how eastern europe is dominating the high jumps. It plays into their natural strengths (of not having enough food), i wonder why africa isnt any better in high jump?
-
I find it more interesting how he still sucks at 400 m ...
-
Its probably always the same guy competing under different names. Noone can tell the difference anyways.
-
100 € for you if GB wins a gold and 100 € for me if they dont?
-
It is really nice to see that russia is back to dominating mens high jump. You have to admire the russian mentality. Everyone is suspecting them of being doped to the gills and they just dont give a shit. Athletes from most other nations would try to make it less obvious, but russians just dont care.
-
Nice to see qatari fans being so passionate about the african championships in mens 3000 m SC. Who is Girma?
-
Not very surprising. Black athletes in the US are on average poorer, so they are more willing to dope. Just like people in Africa or China.
-
Interested in a bet?
-
What sad times are we living in when i cheer for two cubans ... I guess Perkovic is bound to steal another medal, but it would be nice if it wouldnt be gold again.
-
Germany is no surprise, there were only 3 or 4 weaker relays in this field.
-
No, not really. They were 4th in 2016 and 2017. I think Netherlands and South Africa are the upsets. Everyone knew that South Africa had the potential (especially when they still had Van Niekerk), but now they finally got it all together.
-
Business as usual, they almost always mess up somehow.
-
Amazing run for GB, especially considering that Kilty was part of that relay. If they would replace Kilty with a fit Prescod, then they would be almost unbeatable. A 4th gold incoming for them, far better results than they could have ever dreamt of. Too bad Timothy Duckworth wasnt here, he probably would have won gold too. If ski jumping would be part of athletics and Eddie the Eagle would still be active, then he probably would have won gold here too.
-
Very good to see that mens 4 x 100 m relay is one of the most competitive events here, a lot of diversity.
-
GB is the favorite for the gold, would be amazing for them to end this competition with 3 golds, especially because it is pretty unlikely for them to win any golds next year.
-
Wouldnt surprise me, most of the time she comes out of nowhere for the biggest competitions.
-
Yeah, if USA, Jamaica or GB drop the baton and the german relay does have better exchanges, then maybe they could win a medal, but to be honest it would be pretty embarrassing if this german B team would win a medal.
-
German officials need to get their shit together and find out why about 2 dozens of the best german athletes are injured. At least 10 athletes who could have finished top 8 arent here and one or two of them even could have won a medal. If this doesnt dramatically change next year, then some heads need to roll.
