Tears roll down the hurdler Reetta Hurskeen27, on his face when he told the Finnish media about his performance in the World Cup semi-final.
– For the most part, these are the kind of competitions that define me as an athlete, Hurske sighed.
– Of course it’s sad. I know I’m fine. It just didn’t come here. New competitions are coming, he continued.
Hurske rattled at the eighth fence, faltered and finished with the season’s worst result of 13.15. He was jumbo in his semi-final and was 23rd in the World Championships in the final results.
– I can’t say what happened when it rattled. Did I come too close to the fence or was the effort not good enough to have climbed over the fence, he assessed.
– After the bump, I just tried to stay upright, get over the other fences and finish. There was really nothing to be done about it, the Tampere resident summed up.
The wobble cost tens of thousands, but by no means a further place.
– If I had fallen, I don’t know if I would have pissed off so much. I was doing well until I got sick, but then I got vaccinated.
The 2022 season for Tampere’s Pyrinnö woman has been the best of her career before the gig. The average result of the nine races was 12.98 seconds. The final race of two-start events is taken into account in the statistics. The best quote was 12.88 and the weakest was 13.13.
In Eugene, it was 13.09 in the heat.
– I give myself a grade of kasi. In the first round, the time could have been better, but it allowed us to continue. What would I have done to have run a time of 12.95?
Crazy ME

Before the preliminaries, Hurske estimates that the final race of the top eight will be reached with a time of approximately 12.70.
A drastic result of 12.50 was required for the final.
– The track is good. Etusuora doesn’t have much of a headwind, but there are downwind gusts. We only had 0.3 meters per second downwind – that seemed like little. I don’t know where the anemometer is.
Wind measurements have been a bit questionable in the US before. On the other hand, in the World Cup, it should be in the miter.
Either way, in the first semi-final, Nigeria Tobi Amusan pushed the ferocious ME’s 12,12. of the USA by Kendra Harrison the 2016 ME time improved by no less than eight hundredths.
– My guess is that Amusa will come rolling to the end. With a nimble step, he presses full forward. He’s got pretty good technique and he’s not a terribly big runner. Amusan is also good at 60 meters, Hurske analysed.
The Nigerian competed in the Paavo Nurmi Games in Turku in June. At that time, he praised Finland in an interview with Iltalehti.
