This is such a stupid rule and I hope that it's not going to be a thing in the Olympics. I mean come on shouldn't the person who had jumped the farthest win? So u can lose even if you did the best of the day? You could potentially break the world record but still lose.... So dumb

Come on Wanda Diamond League. This is such a unanimously hated format, I honestly have no idea how you’ve managed to keep it going this long. Stop this nonsense, we were all sick of it a long time ago already.

Just a stupid rule the last three rounds but congrats fellow greek miltos.

I like the idea of giving the top 3 athletes an extra attempt, however its ridiculous that their previous attempts don't count.

Please how does 8.24 beat 8.29 and 8.27?

[OfentseMwaseFilms]

Change this dumb ruling!😡 Whoever had the furthest jump in any of the rounds should be the winner!

[lolworld]

bravo Tentoglou you are such a consistent athlete with quality. i support you. Don't forget he did 8.60 in athens which is world record. All the athletes are great anyway <3

[fede_ponz]

Tentoglou's approach and jump is exactly like Pedroso's

[Zacharias_Apostolakis]

I agree that the rules are stupid but we have to say that it's not athletes' fault!!! These athletes have to accept the rules even if they disagree

[jacob]

Just look at the top 3 standing there at the end. The athletes clearly hate this daft format, just as much as the fans do!

[y-rokenjnr]

Someone explain the logic or their reasoning for making a rule this stupid
