IAAF site has no mention of this perf. I know it's not the most reliable of sources but McPherson and TBO went up straight away.

Is there a problem with Montsho's time?

They probably haven't picked up on it yet because it was set at such a small meet and this was pretty much the only performance of any note.

Valerie Adams has also gone further than the 20.37m WL on the IAAF rankings too but she hasn't thus far been credited with it.

Watched the video, and wonder if this track will undergo the same scrutiny as the San Diego track? Obviously some of the cones are small and others placed well inside the lane line.

If there were any lap races we cared about (i.e., fast enough to make the lists) they'd indeed be in trouble.

The Montsho mark now appears on the IAAF list.

Where were they hiding the auto timing equipment on that track?

modern phototiming doesn't require any major structures on the infield.
