1/14 on Hodgkinson? I mean, she's got to be the overwhelming favorite, but that seems like it should be close to a record for a world championship. I wonder what the odds were for Ryan Crouser in recent years, or Moses or Bubka in the 1970s/80s.
I love Keely and agree she is the heavy favorite for good reason, but after Addy Wiley’s semifinal and hearing her interview after I am excited to see what she does in the final. It would be pretty exciting if Addy gave Keely a run for her money. I know it is a long shot after Addy running a PB yesterday, but I hope she is in the mix.
Addy looked great yesterday and sounded confident in her post-race interview. But a four second difference in (recent) PRs is massive. Keely would have to get tripped to lose. If Addy stays poised and out of trouble, she's got a great shot at a medal. Hope she grabs one.
