Re: The WC Golden Challenge

>LJ Lebedeva 7.10

You might want to edit this. Lebedeva isn't competing in the long jump this year (although the IAAF did post an erroneous list a few days back).

Re: The WC Golden Challenge

>ok here are THE correct winners:

Alright, I just amended all my picks! Kidding ;-)

That's brave with Kluft. We'll all have egg on our face if the rumours turn out to be over blown. In the same light I am still going with Liu. Probably not a good plan but who knows? I've still got a few hours to change my mind.

EDIT OK. I bottled out i went with Doucouré. What about Trammell coming through for the upset?

[MJD]

Re: The WC Golden Challenge

Only 9 out of 20 picks are track and only 6 out of 20 are 800 and up. Yikes. How did this happen? Been hanging around here WAY too much.

>about Trammell coming through for the upset?

Yes Trammell could come through- I went back and forth on that one myself.
Kluft will be just fine...Kluft will be just fine.....
