Monzanator 3,594 Posted August 19, 2021 #111 Share Posted August 19, 2021 No athlete got the US visa to attend the Eugene DL meeting. Must be some wider political/clerk problem since Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova complained she didn't get a visa either and had to withdraw from Cincinnati tournament. She might get one for US Open though.

Grassmarket 2,757 Posted August 20, 2021 #112 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Preview for Eugene this weekend. We get something we haven't seen since literally the 1980s - the Grand Showdown between the Olympic Gold Medallist and the pre-event Favourite who couldn't be there due to Reasons. Plus lots of other replayed finals and post-Olympic WR attempts. https://www.diamondleague.com/news/general/eugene-five-things-to-look-out-for-1/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very excited about tomorrow with so many medalists coming. Kind of disappointed that McLaughlin didn't come for the 400 Hurdles, but overall great start lists all over. Gonna be a fun day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NearPup 2,156 Posted August 21, 2021 #118 Share Posted August 21, 2021 This women's high jump jump-off is making me grateful that Tamberi and Barshim agreed to tie. Both athletes missed six times in a row before there was finally a clearance... Giovanni Gianni Cattaneo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxim Fastovsky 124 Posted August 22, 2021 #119 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Crauser is not human. It was insane to stand very close and see how far this ball went comparing to all others Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orangehair43 177 Posted August 22, 2021 #120 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Would the diamond league be happy if the British meet was permanently in Gateshead or Birmingham with the London Stadium looking likely to lose its athletics track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
