  1. She is working on the wrong javelin with Jakub.
  2. Motos are about to start, which is a boatload of races
  3. Terribly sad photo from Norway. Skofterud was buried yesterday and her coffin was carried by her father, brother, Marit Bjoergen, Ingvild Flugstad Oestberg, Kristin Stoermer Steira and Therese Johaug.
  4. I wouldn't call jumping 2 centimeters less than her long jump PB underperforming neither. Only in high jump she really underperformed, the sprint events were not great (but definitely not terrible). The main problem in terms of her forecast is that she has a 59m javelin throw in there, which is by far her PB, but still with 50m (very realistic) she shouldn't have major problems to beat KJT.
  5. Thiam is still far and away the gold medal favourite, with KJT relatively clear for silver. Dadic now seems to be in prime position for bronze after her fantastic long jump (she has improved on her forecast on all 5 events, that is impressive), with Vetter as most serious threat. Schäfer has more or less had to let go after her mediocre long jump.
  6. Definitely, even 300 points is not impossible if Thiam has a really good throw.
  7. Nothing personal, but I hope we won't see Mezulianikova too often in the top results....unless she marries someone with an easier name.
  8. Why would a commentator call her 'Katarina' during a competition? I find it odd when commentators do that, like in the Netherlands where the F1-commentator is always talking about 'Max' instead of 'Verstappen'. Luckily our gymnastics commentator is an incredibly articulate man, who always says either Epke Zonderland or Zonderland, but not Epke A few of our sports stars are well-known by simply their first name, mostly Max, Epke, Ireen (Wüst), Sven (Kramer) and a bit less Tom (Dumoulin). Definitely Bauke (Mollema) and Churandy
  9. Wet stuff has been falling out of the sky the past 36 hours or so, anyone knows what on earth that could be?
  10. Like Esmee Vermeulen who has barely made the move to open water and already took bronze today
  11. I don't think it matters much for the women's course, there's just two options: a course purely for sprinters (Wild, Dideriksen), and something that's not. The depth is just so small yet that there are not a lot of specialists.
  12. I'm gonna see the good in people and say Talay wishes well for her countrywoman.
  13. And right after the tricky hurdles final, rain starts pouring down. Good timing
  14. I think I feel more lucky in just trying to win a million euro jackpot and bribing Mekhissi out of ever competing again.
  15. Yes please. Or any Ingebrigtsen for that matter. Or any human being.
  16. Ok and one position down, could have added her indeed since she's in good shape.
  17. Clear leader, and it's starting to be a 3-way fight for the other medals after day one.
  18. Right, steeple final coming up. Hide yo wives, hide yo mascottes.
