How do shot put limits work? I thought it was in if they didn't step on the block or out of the circle? Seemed like Awotunde was in from the NBC camera angles
Exactly. It reminds me of 1993. Sorry but when you see three runners from a single nation dominate the competition its doping. We have seen this game before. Deal with it.
I have officiated a lot of shot put competitions up to high school nationals and college conference championships. From the TV angle, it did not look like he hit the top of the board. I actually watched the slow-mo in slow-mo so it was extra slow and I did not see it. However, it looks like his right foot hit the very edge of the board and his toes may have gone out of the circle on the side of the board. It is impossible to see from the TV angle since it happens on the opposite side. The official who called the foul was on that side and called it right away.
Shows up when it matters, takes down the WR holder and defending world champ. Coleman was not sticking around for photos w/ the flag--stormed to the tunnel.

From what I saw Coleman did stick around for several photos and congratulated Jacobs
I had the pleasure of interviewing Noah Lyles for my show "OVERALL OVERtime" on Wednesday, on the Spotify Greenroom app. And in the most entertaining interview that you will see, since I asked him all original questions, I as...
“If Christian…keep that distance…it will be his race. But if Jacobs is close & pulls up on him before those 5 meters, I think he’s going to break down & Jacobs would take it.”
Track/Athletics superstar and one of a kind, versatile renaissance man Noah Lyles had a classic, most fun interview on the 2022 debut episode of Andrew Jerel...
No, you only THINK you saw Jacobs win "for sure." The difference was only .003 and there is no way from that camera angle that anyone could tell who really won. You got fooled by the camera angle.
Jacobs did end up the winner, but not because of you being "sure."
Classic sprint showdown! Coleman with a great start, Jacobs charging at the end. Wait for the result takes 10x the time that the race did. The drama was terrific. Can't wait for the rematch in Eugene

Did you see how quickly Jacobs was moving at the end? Coleman will have to step up his game if he is going to beat Jacobs at a distance longer than 60 meters.

No doubt. If they raced 100m right now, Coleman would lose by 0.1-0.2, he looked like he was clinging on over the last 10m by Jacobs was smooth.
I don't think Coleman was being a bad sport at the end, he stayed for some photos then got out of there. I think he's annoyed with himself, he should have that but he wasn't strong enough.
Kipsang certainly has a special place in your heart TL!
In my opinion Kipsang is wasting his energy. Can he recover until tomorrow evening?
There is no reason to think Kipsang can close the gap on 4 seconds (according to the world ranking) to Jakob.
I like the talent. He recovered fine off his 2k record attempt to race great 2 days later. The Olympic series of races also impressive. I don’t think running a hard first 300 and last 200 takes that much out of a 3:29 guy. The times are pretty irrelevant. Jakob is a strong favorite but I think Kipsang is in 3:31 shape and he’s clearly got several gears.
