See this is what's wrong with the DL. They casually drop to teh 1k like 10 seconds before it starts when it's a world record attempt. They need to focus on certain events all broadcast.
If she can't get the WR here, she's got no shot at sub 4.
Ten world record-holders and 23 reigning global individual champions lead the star-studded fields for the first Wanda Diamond League meeting of the year in Xiamen on Saturday
When was the last time Holloway lost a 110 hurdle race wow, Good for Tinch
He lost a week or two ago. I don't understand why people think he is a shoo in for the 110H. He isn't. I am often surprised when he wins this distance.
Unless he is a mile in front, he will not win the 110H because he decelerates too much at closing stage of the race.
Good run for faith, she has zero shot at sub 4, seems like something that Nike might have been pushing, as she is not in that sort of shape right now, even getting in better shape as the season goes on 600 more meters is unrealistic
Holloway DFL. Wow. Had the lead at 60 and then could feel the pressure. Really had trouble coming off #8. And then just gave up after the last hurdle.
In teh replay, it didn't show anything obvious and they were showing the side by side angle.
Yes, that was odd. Holloway had a great first half until he just looked out of energy, without making a technical error.
Because the first half is equivalent to the 60H in which he has proved he is untouchable. He is not untouchable in the 110H. He did not get his usual bullet start in this race, and therefore the hughe lead, and therefore didn't have the usual cushion as he decelerated at the last 15Ms of the race as he normally does.
