In the morning from Thursday to Friday, due to time -time change, the World Cup was started at the Nanjing Covered Track (China), a historical appointment because of the first time it was temporarily in conjunction with the recent European in the Appelaorn Room. He has not been raised for a time with a European and a World Cup at the same time, but the World Athletics has arranged this unity to finally schedule the World Cup lost in China in 2020 due to the inhabitants, that winter, the coronavirus pandemic. In the five -year delay, Nanjing will have his World Cup, but he will pay for a high price.
And this is the saturation of high appointments of appointments has led to many ‘tops’ athletes who need to choose between European or worldwide, and thus have options, which, as in the case of Spain, are sent to China’s contingents smaller than before. Although, there are many incentives and stars: Jakob Intebiga will not be lost, signed a double of gold in the European Dutch and comes in shape, or Armand Duplantis, preferring not to compete with the Continental championship to be in the World Cup. And Ethiopian Gudaf Tsegay, one of the queens of Midfondo, or the proper American Grant Holloway and the Spanish Ana Peleteiro, recently crowned the European champion.
Duplantis is, with only 25 years, one of the most imposed athlete history: two golden Olympic (Tokyo 2020 and Paris 2024), two world -world Oros (2022 and 2023) and two of the covered tracks (2022 and 2024), three European titles (2021). In addition, he broke his own record in the world eleven times until he put it in 6.27 meters. In Nanjing you can reach the third title of the world in the room.
One year lower, 24, has the only athlete, the only athlete to achieve the continental double to 1,500 and 3,000 meters under the roof of three consecutive. Not to mention two golden Olympic gold in Tokyo 2020 (1,500) and Paris 2024 (5,000), two other World Cups in 5,000 (Eugene 2022 and Budapest 2023) and six titles outside Europe.
In Nanjing, the Norwegian will go for double mkism of Appelaorn, 1,500 and 3,000, before rivals such as Neil Gourley, Isaac Nader and Ethiopian Samuel Téfera.
The Ukrainian Height Salt Basewl Shape Yaroslava Mahuchikh, Worldwide Plusmarchist and the only one lost from two meters this year after winning European Gold to the room was added to the stars in China. He won the inner World Cup in Belgrade 2022, but lost (silver) at Glasgow last year.
Ethiopo Gudaf Tsegay, a global 1,500 ceiling with 3: 53.09 and 5,000 outside with 14: 00.21, will be a great favorite of the opponent he chose, 1,500. He had become a champion in 2022.
Ana Peleteiro will be a great reference to the reduced (13 athletes) Spanish team after announcing the continental champion at the Ap -Sunday two weeks ago. In China he will have non -european rivals, such as the Cuban Liadagmis Povea, but there will be a Queen of Triple Jump, Venezuelan Yulimar Rojas, who has not competed for more than a year and ends the recovery of an Achilles tendon breakage. Rojas appeared again a few days ago at Salamca’s leaping length, though there was still not enough good sensations to compete at the highest level.
One of the sectors played by the World Cup casualties is the speed. There are no Noah Lyles, Christian Coleman, Fred Kerley or Marcell Jacobs, who left the path of British Jeremiah Azu and Australian Lachlan Kennedy. Yes, the undeniable king of this test is on the 60 fence, the American grant Holloway. Favorite Claro to win his third world gold in a consecutive room, he has not lost his career at this distance since 2014.
