The top of the world is his again! THE Miltos Tendoglou defended his title from Belgrade and was crowned for second year in a row World indoor champion.
The match was impressive, with the Greek champion having a great battle with the Italian Matia Furlani. The two athletes started with 8.22 and the race was decided on the second best jump (Tedoglou 8.19, Fulani 8.10). The third place was won by Carey McLoud with 8.21.
The Greek champion showed… fierce with the “good morning” and made a big jump at 8.22m. The same performance was made by Matias Furlani, with the two athletes going hand in hand throughout the race.
In his second jump, Tedoglou stayed a little under 8m, specifically jumping at 7.94m. A jump that, of course, did not leave him happy.
On his third attempt, the Greek champion jumped wide and appeared to make a jump around 8.30m. but his attempt was not counted, as invalid.
A… little loss occurred on the fourth jump. Matteo Furlani spent a few minutes at the top, after clocking a better second attempt than Tedoglou with 8.10. The Greek champion, as usual, immediately responded with a jump at 8.15 and maintained his position at the top.
On the fifth attempt, Tedoglou jumped to 8.11 and the Italian at 8.04, going to a final… thriller.
The finale, however, was inglorious for Furlani and ideal for Tedoglou. The Italian did cancelessentially sealing the top for the Greek champion, who without stress jumped at 8.19m.
