I have to give Tim H kudos; for a distance guy he actually sounds like he knows what he's talking about in the TJ

DOUBLE countback!!

1 WILSON, Aarik USA
16.67(-0.2) 16.90(+0.5) 17.00(+1.2) 17.07(+0.9) 16.96(+1.4) 17.02(+0.8 )
2 EVORA, Nelson POR
16.33(+0.5) 16.51(-0.3) 17.07(+0.8 ) 17.02(+0.5) 16.74(-0.4) 16.71(+1.6)
3 GREGÓRIO, Jadel BRA 16.99(-0.2)

Not many comps decided by the third-best jump. And this is a big one because these are the top two and annual honors are on the line (if Wilson gets the WAF, or even finishes ahead of Evora it will be very close.
