So what's a "par" points difference on the javelin for the pair of them? 250-270? Kat is 216 ahead at the moment....

The PB difference is more like 320.
But Nafi is not supposed to be in PB shape in the Jav at the moment.
It might come down to her deciding whether to sacrifice the shoulder for a gold today - risking no gold next year - or backing off a bit with next year in mind.
Anyway, what a titanic struggle. I am so loving this.

Everything crosses we don't have a Kelly S moment. I predict 44m for Kat and 51m for Thiam.
I also think if Thiam isn't feeling it , she will get a throw in and the protect her body for Tokyo.Comment

Women's 4x1 heats look very lopsided.
Heat 1: USA, Australia, Kazakhstan, Denmark, Switzerland, France, Trindidad & Tobago & Netherlands (without Schippers?).
Heat 2: Germany, GB, Jamaica, China, Nigeria, Brazil, Italy & Ghana.
I expect GB to go with Asha P, Lansiquot, Nelson & Neita.Comment

PBs: Vetter 58m, Oosterwegel 54m & Broersen 54m... All heptathletes, yet the Dutch have no world class Javelin throwers? Odd.Comment

If KJT runs 2.08 her final score would be 6966, presuming she does not improve her javelin in the third roundLast edited by Charlwilxo; 03-10-19, 18:43.Comment

A better 2nd round throw from Thiam just over 48m, but that is not nearly enough for her. She needs to go substantially over 50m (realistically she needs to get close to her monster PB throw) to really get herself back into contention.Comment
