Klaudia is in terrific form and she will attack Polish record set by Lizakowska in semifinals, Marques had to ran repachage round so this will be her 4th 1500 and I do not believe she will go under 4 minutes. GBR will likely bring Haydock-Wilson in place of Harris which should give them 0.5 seconds, Dobson controlled his position yesterday so he could also go slightly faster and Reardon also ran below his capacities so they should go around 2:57.50 at least.
France used best possible lineup and I do not believe they will improve their time by 2 seconds in final. Kolak had 1 in 100 throw in qualification I do not simply believe she will replicate it in final, Van Dyk said after quali that she knew that she will easily throw over qualification mark of 62.40 and is confident she will throw farther in final, she is a dark horse for a medal. Maria had best throw in Q, but she usually struggles in finals of big competitions. She also won qualificiaton in Rio and ended up only 4th in final. Hurtado is reigning silver medalist and her throw in Q was 1m below Maria, but that throw was not well executed from what I saw on video, she has potential to throw 67m in finals. Mitchell had one good throw in Q and she will be happy to go above 60m in finals, Ogrodnikova messed up in her 1st throw which was around 63.50 but she stepped over the line so it was foul, I believe she will not make the same mistake today. Yesterday I underestimated Hoppel, he has looked very good and after race said that he is in the shape of his life and want to win gold today. Tual has been in impressive form for 2 months now and I think he is past his peak now and it will be hard to fight for a medal today for him, in semi he was comfortably beated by Arop and barely managed to finish in 2nd place. And 1 funny bet at the end. Conditions for javelin throwers are ideal in Paris, we saw it in mens competition where everybody threw very far so I am betting that women will also have big throws.
Summary: Very good day to end this Olympics, I hope you enjoyed my bets. Now is time for some rest, I am half-dead after this two intense weeks
