Press Release Pichardo-‐Taylor Main Contenders of a Dream Triple Jump Press release Pichardo-Taylor main contenders of a dream triple jump event Star athletes Storl, Felix, Perkovic among confirmed athletes as well Given the very high level of men's triple jump, one of the events to be held at Athletissima on July 9, this very technical event could well become one of the main events of this year's athletics season. Cuban vice-World champion Pedro Pablo Pichardo had a very strong start in the season, achieving an outstanding 17.94m in Havana. He confirmed his great shape in Doha a week later when he entered the very exclusive club of the "over 18 meters" by achieving 18.06m on his third attempt, becoming the 3rd best performer in history. Never before had any athlete jumped further that early in the season. It did not take long for reigning Olympic champion Christian Taylor to react as he nearly defeated the Cuban by achieving a mark just 2 cm shorter than him. Never in history had two athletes jumped beyond 18 meters in the same event. Both of them will be in the lineup of the 40th Athletissima edition in a dual which will put the Pontaise stadium on fire. The Cuban athlete won the event in 2013. The stadium record held by Frenchman Teddy Tamgho (17.91m in 2011) will be in danger. The World and European champion David Storl will be the man to beat in the shot put. The German giant (1.99m for 115kg) dominated all his opponents last Friday in Qatar. He will be in Lausanne for the first time. The slender American sprinter Allyson Felix achieved a similar feat and dominated the 200m on the first Diamond League event of the year. In Doha the Olympic champion and triple World champion clocked 21.98, less than 3 tenth of a second outside her record. It was the sixth sub 22 second race of her career, but she had never been that fast before June 30. This great 29 year old champion is the most decorated female athlete in the history of the Olympic Games with four gold (one in 2008, three in 2012) and two silver (2004 and 2008) medals. Sandra Perkovic, who set a new stadium record with 68.96m meters in the discus throw two years ago, will be back and aim for a second victory. The Croatian has been dominating her event for several years and has already won everything: Olympic champion in 2012, World champion in 2013 and triple European champion (2010, 2012, 2014). In the high jump, the Spanish reigning European champion Ruth Beitia will face the World champion Blanka Vlasic. Neither of them has scored a victory in Lausanne yet.

  • Journée Des Médias De L'athlétisme Suisse
    Communiqué de presse Swiss Athletics du mardi 25 mai 2021 Regard optimiste de Swiss Athletics sur l’été olympique Après une saison en salle réussie, un été de compétition de haut niveau s’annonce pour l’athlétisme suisse. Swiss Athletics attend avec confiance les Jeux olympiques de Tokyo et tous les autres moments forts. Jamais encore l’élite nationale n’a connu une aussi grande densité. L’athlétisme suisse connait le succès depuis des années. Cela s'est vérifié l'été dernier, lorsque de nombreux athlètes ont brillé par d’excellentes performances saluées au niveau international, malgré les conditions difficiles causées par la pandémie, mais aussi lors de la saison en salle de cette année, lorsque deux jeunes Suissesses, Ajla Del Ponte (US Ascona, 60 m) et Angelica Moser (LC Zurich, saut à la perche), ont été sacrées championnes d'Europe en salle. Swiss Athletics veut profiter de cet élan pendant la saison en plein air 2021, qui a déjà connu un début prometteur. Plusieurs athlètes ont rapidement fait preuve d’une très bonne forme, ce qui est très important, car la période de qualification pour les Jeux olympiques de Tokyo (JAP) prend fin le mardi 29 juin déjà. Swiss Athletics compte se rendre au Japon avec quelques 20 athlètes, comme l’a expliqué le directeur technique Philipp Bandi mardi à Ittigen à l’occasion de la journée des médias de l’athlétisme suisse. Au niveau de la relève, les CE U20 à Tallinn (EST/15 au 18 juillet) constituent le but principal. Les responsables de Swiss Athletics espèrent qu’European Athletics trouve un remplaçant pour organiser les CE U23 annulés à Bergen (NOR), car aussi bien les CE U20 que les CE U23 sont des événements très importants pour les jeunes athlètes en route vers le sommet européen ; ils leur permettent de s’affirmer en comparaison internationale.
