That is how British people pronounce Martinez. All of them pronounce it that way.
But it’s wrong. This isn’t opinion, it’s someone’s name. If someone was pronouncing Jones as Jo-ness, everyone would be losing their minds, not excusing it. Martinez is pronounced Mar-TEE-nez all over the damn world. Get it together Brits.
True. I'm sure that is just how they always hear it pronounced so that is how they pronounce it. BTW I like to pronounce Jones as Ho-NAYS just for fun.😎
For testing maybe…but Ngeny was ineligible with not enough tests. They did get an indoor silver out of testing Kibet sufficiently. Sedjati has run in France mostly he’s been on fire and this isn’t a surprise.

Not really -- plenty of assimilated American hispanics pronounce their own names the way Brits do. Jimenez comes out like the g in gym. Lopez comes out one syllable and the z changed to an s, like the the way you might run. Italian names are even weirder. Don't know too many Italian Americans who know what to do with -gn or -gl other than use a hard g.
It's the euro/futbol/soccer mindset. You need to fall and stay down or else it's not a problem. It's what has made soccer unwatchable to many with an american/canadian mindset, and if the decisions continue this way, 800m races will devolve into fall fests as well.

Right, like the great American actor and Al Gore's Harvard roommate,Tommy Lee Cojones.
