[j-a-m]

Aldama made final in first attempt, despite missing board by a lot.

[j-a-m]

Ibarguen makes final with auto qualifier in second attempt.

[shivfan]

Kimberley williams jumps a pb of 14.53 in her first jump to qualify for the final....

[j-a-m]

Rypakova not looking good, not sure if her second attempt is enough, might have to improve in third.

[Powell]

Rypakova only 13.99 after 2 attempts...

[j-a-m]

Lebedeva without auto qualifier after two attempts, but should be close enough to make it.

[croflash]

Looks like Lebedeva will qualify for the final. Between her, Aldama and Trecia Smith you might think it's 2004 or 2005 again.

[Flumpy]

The quality is shocking.

Yami was about 30cm off the board

[j-a-m]

#10 Dziatsuk seems out with three misses.

[j-a-m]

Rypakova in 3rd attempt 14.79 (+0.5)

[Alan Shank]

Rypakova is in trouble-- foul, 13.99.

Round 3 14.79!!

14.16 makes final. Top 6 make it, #7 Mamona is first one to miss with 14.11

[lapsus]

Fun to see Lebedeva again, but it almost felt like a women's discus competition circa 2003. The next 15 meter jumping triple jump generation still hasn't arrived.

7. Yargelis Savigne (Cuba) 14.28

is this the right interpretation and does this mean there will not be an additional 5 poersons admitted to the final?

no, that's only an update of the T&FN formchart showing those who advanced to the final. There are five others.

[Pelpa]

Right interpretation of what? They take twelve, last was 14.16, 14.11 first non-q.

[j-a-m]

Rypakova takes lead with 3rd attempt

[j-a-m]

Most attempts into head wind; that stadium is not good for LJ and TJ.

[j-a-m]

#4 Lebedeva and #6 Savigne miss top 8

[j-a-m]

Rypakova wins it with two best jumps of overall competition. First time ever without 15m jump, though?

[j-a-m]

I've said it before, with the jumps taking place at the same time as running events, they don't get the attention they deserve.

[croflash]

Savigne sure picked a bad year to have her worst season in ages. Did she get injured at some point during the winter or spring?

For TV directors showing Bolt warming up 20 times during evening is more interesting I guess. That's terrible.
