World Champs - Day 3

no one I’d prefer to see lose than bakkali. He’s a straight up villain. Moroccans always dirty too

Congrats to Beamish for that upset. Serem wins a global medal at just 17. Ezekiel Kemboi stays the GOAT 🐐

El Bacryyyyyi

Maybe they’ll all get DQ’ed and Dan will be given the gold?

Agreed, almost looked like he eased up a hair,But he was looking up at the big screen and could see him coming. No excuse.

Serem DQ? Seems like he destabilized Miura from behind causing him to fade to 8th. Japanese protest maybe... the stadium was rocking for Miura's doomed charge to the front.

We’re back in the sit and kick era.

I think after the last jump, Bakkali had more left than what he showed but normally when he has a 3-5m lead he has won the race. It's just that Beamish finishes so strong that he underestimated it, so he blames himself for losin.

Guy who hasn’t lost a global final in 5 years is sad to lose. Absolutely puzzling stuff apparently?

Beamish was 11th and off the back with 300 to go. OACs first outdoor World Champion.

El B taking it hard for a guy who has won everything multiple times

FAFO

onya Mr Beamish

El ba cry baby

2x US Trials and 3x Worlds umpire here

clear foul.

I was so worried Beamish would be boxed in late but once I saw them off the last water jump it felt like “Look—LOOK AT GEORGE LOOK AT GEORGE”

Also that was a nice moment with Beamish and Miura afterwards

What a shame

No Americans in the top 8 in SC! DEVASTATED!

FAFO?

There was no room for Hocker there. Even if he was “polite” about it, that was a sketchy and probably DQ-worthy move. I don’t want him DQ’d though, even if he should be.

Such a shame if he is DQ’d since apart from getting boxed, dude was chilling. Looked way easier than most of the guys straining around him.

My glorious Queen, Masai repeating very soon 😍
