Altitude?

It's about 800m I believe, so quite helpful.


ETA - 771m to be exact

Valerie Adams 19.75m in Poland, and extremely consistent series:
(19.31m, 19.21m, 19.75m, 19.49m, 19.54m, 19.32m)

Thats her best throw since 2016, she's now #4 in the world and I would say basically back in serious medal contention considering the improvement she has made this season.

Agree. Gong seems to be the best with about six women fighting for the other spots. It would be a surprise if Gong doesn't medal and no surprise if the others don't medal.

It seems Lavillenie is injured and his presence on OG is very doubtful.

Poor guy can't catch a break. He missed the European indoors where he was almost a lock for silver, and now this? Where did he get injured? He looked fine in Stockholm.

Frenchman Renaud Lavillenie, one of the great candidates for victory in the pole vault at the Olympic Games, was injured yesterday in the warm-up for the meeting in Sotteville-les-Rouen. Lavillenie sprained her left foot on reaching the mat and ended up spraining his ankle.
Having canceled the participation in the meeting, the athlete ended up being taken to a clinic for examinations, where no fracture was detected, "only" a sprain.
“It's clearly not the ideal setting for what would be my last competition before the game. Injured left ankle after poor reception. I leave with an encouraging verdict: no fracture, but a major sprain

There are aggressive rehab protocols for bad sprains. He might have time.

Mariya Lasitskene cleared 1.95m in Moscow, in her first competition after injury.

[gmak]

Mariya Lasitskene is officially back!
She just cleared 2.00m in a meet in Finland. Clean card throughout and was VERY close at 2.04m which would've taken the WL from Yaro Mahuchikh. Could we have another epic encounter in Tokyo?
