Got to hand it to Karalis. It looked like he had the form to take a PR today and just accept the silver. Instead, he just kept moving the bar up to match Mondo. Gave up some good jumps today, going toe-to-toe with Mondo. It didn't work out, but he was fearless today.
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.
No doubt. Hocker got lucky that Farken did not protest.
The 1500 m final list doesn’t include Hocker. DQed
