World Championships Predictions

What are your predictions?


http://www.sportinglife.com/others/news ... tions.html

Pole Vault: Olympic champion Tim Mack failed to make the US team so European champion Giuseppe Gibilisco will fancy winning again for Italy. Toby Stevenson though could pinch it again for the United States

Pole Vault: Yelena Isinbayeva was beaten into third place in Paris but the Russian's rapid development and 14 world records make her the most fancied athlete to win a gold medal in Helsinki.

4) Women's pole vault, Aug 10 - A massive crowd stayed until past midnight to watch last year's thrilling Olympic final and the same can be expected again as Yelena Isinbayeva aims to displace compatriot Svetlana Feofanova as world champion. The competition could push Isinbayeva to yet another world record. Poland's Anna Rogowska will provide stiff competition.

That shouldn't be hard seeing as Feofanova is out for the season...

Brad won the Pre, USA Championships, and Paris. He is my Number 1 pick.

Toby and Nick to round out the top three spots.

Don't forget, he also won the USA Indoors too.
