2017 Final USATF Women’s Formchart

Chart #5 (click to see men’s chart)

peerless prognosticating by Jack Pfeifer (as of June 21)

The number on the right is the athlete’s position in T&FN’s ’16 U.S. Rankings. If she wasn’t ranked in ’16, then the ’15 rank is given in parentheses. An “nr” means she didn’t rank in either ’15 or ’16. Even though these picks were made after declarations closed, the athletes won’t necessarily appear in the events we have listed (or in the meet at all, of course).
