Brussels Memorial Van Damme DL 2019

[El Toro]

Mihambo is unbeaten so far this year, with 6 competitions over 7 meters. It's been a long time since anyone had a season like that in wLJ.

Here is a table of the jumpers with most competitions split into all conditions (as per chart in post above) and legal jumps only.

For Drechsler in 1992, she had 25 competitions (inc. one Q) for 22 @7 (inc. one Q) and only 3 under 7m with a worst competition of 6.90.

That's if you count 17 years as a long time.

The last time anybody had 6 competitions a year was 2002, when Tatyana Kotova managed it.

Yes, 17 years is a pretty long time. And if she gets another 7+ in Doha, she will have achieved a better series than Kotova. Also, in addition to her marks, I was talking of her being unbeaten this season.

I'm not El Bakkali's fan, but he was robbed of the win and money by Getnet Wale. It's sad these things are still allowed on the circuit.
