Re: Doha DL: wLJ

Okagbare hits big 7.14 (2.2).
Reese way back.
Actually, both Reese and Gipson have NM's after 2 rounds!

Re: Doha DL: wLJ

Reese moves into 2nd with her 1st measured jump of the day, a 7.04.
Okagbare got a 7.03 in her 3rd round, so she has two 7+ jumps.

Reese PR's!!
7.25 with a legal wind of 1.6.
That moves her into 13th on the outdoor A-T World list.

And DeLoach moves into 3rd with a 7.08 (2.2).
Okagbare now 2nd with her 7.14 from earlier.

Fantastic! That is one of the very best jumps in history.

Re: ¶Doha DL: wLJ—Brittney Reese 23-9½ (7.25) WL

7.25/23' 9.25"
7.14/23' 5"
7.08/23 2.75"

DeLoach-Soukup in third and Jemoh 6.92 (a mark that often will win!), although a lot of wind-aided marks.

Variable winds make it hard to hit the board right.

There were 17 jumps greater than 6.80/22' 7.5"

I think my 24 footer is imminent

It looks like Ms. Reese has ( finally ) learned HOW to LJ. She was pretty rough around the edges for too long. 24 is coming soon for her.

Front page has Reese #3 US, behind Marion Jones. If Randy Barnes WR isn't on TFN's shot list, why is Marion's big leap. Didn't she admit drug use all along?

Because only Marion's runs and jumps run from 2000 and beyond have been expunged

Even without illegal marks it is still very impressive competition:
1. Reese 7.25
2. DeLoach 6.99
3. Jimoh 6.92
4. Okagbare 6.92
5. Sokolova 6.91

The women are chasing an nearly impossible to compete with all-time list in most of there events. And two of those marks are from a single meet in Russia.
