BIG MARKS DON’T always translate to big Rankings, particularly in the discus, where finding the right wind can be so crucial. Daniel Ståhl topped the yearly lists in ’16, ’17 & ’18, but ended up in Rankings positions 6, 2 & 4. The 27-year-old Swede ended up atop the list again this year, but this time also made it to No. 1 for the first time…
THERE WAS NO DOUBT about Ståhl’s claim to the top spot, as he lost only 3 times in 16 meets and won the WC gold by almost a meter… Silver and bronze medalists Fedrick Dacres and Lukas Weißhaidinger claimed the 2-3 positions… In the No. 6 spot, Polish vet Piotr Małachowski picked up enough points to move to No. 10 on the all-time scoring list…
ON THE U.S. SIDE Mason Finley saw his streak of leaderships end at 3 as Sam Mattis moved up 2 spots from ’18 for his first No. 1.
