ANY RESEMBLANCE BETWEEN the Rankings order and the WC finish is apparently largely coincidental. What the Rankers did in Tokyo: 1 (5), 2 (8), 3 (4), 4 (2), 5 (1), 6 (3), 7 (dnq), 8 (6), 9 (10), 10 (dnc)…
ELÍNA TZÉNGGO had the best record heading into the WC, with the DL Final Trophy being just one of her four DL wins on the year. She had a 3–1 seasonal record over 2-time No. 1 Haruka Kitaguchi and 3–2 over Adriana Vilagoš…
NOBODY HAD A COMPELLING string of marks, and as noted in the opening, the results from Japan didn’t do much to clarify the situation. Thus it was that PRs by Yulesy Angulo and Anete Sietiņa gave them the top two podium spots, but reduced Rankings…
THE YEAR’S FARTHEST THROW went to Victoria Hudson at 222-4 (67.76) but the Austrian was almost 30ft (8m) shy of that in finishing 10th at the big dance.
