I'm a big coburn fan but let's not pretend that world championship didn't have multiple of the favorites choke epically...missing the first water jump, falling, etc.
Ya’ll are brutal. Coburn has always peaks well and has never opened up all that well. She had to fly 16+ hours for this meet when the Kenyans are in the same time zone. That’s going to play a roll. As someone else noted, she has prd at every event the last 18 months. Given the conditions in Doha it’s probably her best opener.
