ATHLETICS WORLDS. Fifth day of the World Athletics Championships in the United States, discover the program of the day.
Continuation of the world athletics championships this Tuesday, July 19 with the 5th day of competition. On the program, the semi-finals of the 200m for men and women, but also the final of the 400m hurdles in the night with the Norwegian Olympic champion Karsten Warholm and especially the Frenchman Wilfried Happio, second time of the semi-final who hopes to bring the very first medal of the French delegation. With a time of 48”14, he became the 2nd best French performer behind Stéphane Diagana.
“He has to manage his race well so that he tries to run 47.70 – 47.80. Will he be able to find solutions to be at a good distance? It will be difficult to run a lot faster if he has the same concerns as in the semi-finals” analyzes Stéphane Diagana. “He will be able to compensate a little with the energy, because it will be a final, because there will be opposition, but he will not be able to win as much. With the desire, without changing anything, he will perhaps to be 47″90 – 48″00, which will already be very good. But if he wants to go to a higher level, he will have to do a huge race. Or he has pure physical resources which are good beyond what you can imagine.”
