Race for Silver is ON!

Bol is a solid favorite for that. I think she will be closer to McLaughlin than Muhummad to her.

[Juicy News]

I will not put Wilson below Little.

Race for Silver is ON!

HAHA! I was thinking the same thing. The race for the Silver is one of my top 3 head to head matchups in this entire meet. They wont be too far behind McLaughlin but it will be a great one to watch.

[TN1965]

I will not put Wilson below Little.

I agree. Wilson should be 4th.

[AFelixFan]

Would love to see Salmon make the final.

LOL WA has Bol rank 1 and Syd as Rank 2. I guess its because Bol has raced more? How ridiculous, syd breaks the WR but isnt the top ranked 400m hurdler?

We've had this conversation before. The rankings system is based on points. You can't accumulate points if you hardly ever compete in an event.

Then that's an effed up system. Even if you do is win your national championship and the global championship in a year, that should rank you Number 1.
If you are running World Records while doing so . . .

Completely disagree. There should be a benefit to showing up and running multiple diamond league races.

Exactly. WA wants you to run their races.

Somehow, I don't imagine Syd waking up every morning, and staring into her magic mirror to ask who does WA rank as the supreme 400H'er of them all...

If you have the titles and the times, you can afford not to care about rankings. Heck, I doubt that Bol cares about the rankings either. They're basically only useful for the convoluted qualifying standard stuff.

[TN1965]

Moses used to wake up every morning thinking "Germany is nine hours ahead of us. Harald should have already finished his workouts. I need to get busy."

[Weights&Shoes]

Too easy for Sydney in Heat 1.
