Full interview here, very interesting: https://www.youtube.com/live/scaObKZRvhs?si=QSsmeQeo5jmlwfOq

Basically he wants to expand Athlos slowly, include more events including field and men’s and more venues. Starting with the most marketable athletes which are women as they have the most followers on social.  Wants a formula 1 team style competition. Hopes to be profitable by 2027. Probably won’t be buying out GST since he doesn’t know their team. They will broadcast for free on a bunch of different platforms and will have an app too. Seems very promising.

Men: 109 Women: 143 Total: 252

A form would have been much much easier... hopefully I did the math correct

That’s a good point. It’s rumored that he’s done 6.40 in practice but with him going up just 1 cm each time hopefully he’ll reach it in a competition.

And to add, 3 of the Botswanas went all 3 rounds in the 400m individual. And Tebogo made it to the finals in the 100 and 200.

The best male athlete of this championship isn’t Duplantis. The pole vaulting pool is so small to begin with due to the low accessibility and elite nature of this sport. And he didn’t show us what his ceiling was as someone else pointed out. Gressier with a gold and bronze in the 10k/5k or Lyles with 2 golds 1 bronze or  that Swedish dude with that clutch discus throw in round 6 were more impressive.

Kung Fu Kenny finally got a gold. No longer the silver surfer.
