One guy to really watch for is Christos Frantzeskakis in hammer throw. This kid got serious power. His personal best with the 6 km hammer is 81.32! With the 5 km, his best was 80.15.

Christos Frantzeskakis has to be one of the worst young Greek athlete in today's track and field. He leaves the competition without a mark and fails to qualify for the finals. This is not the first time he cracks in major junior competitions (Happened in 2017 Under 20 European Championship). He led the world for U 20 hammer throwers with 81.32, and he will not get a medal. Un-f***ing-believeable!

I got up around 4 am in the morning to follow the men's hammer throw qualification at the IAAF Under 20 World Championship on live stream. This Greek hammer thrower from Chania, Crete came into the competition with a world lead 81.32 m for all Under 20 hammer throwers (6 kg). He is the heavy favorite to medal (possibly gold). Just as I watched him throw, he has some serious flaws. He has fouled on each of his 3 throws. This is not the first time he was bowed out from qualification without a mark. The same happen last year in the Under 20 European Championship. He has so much upside in his game with raw power, yet he cracks under pressure in major junior competitions. Honestly, he is the most overrated Greek athlete in all track and field and I don't care if he is 18 years old. Stavroula Kosmidou (age 16) performs way better than him and doesn't hit the nettings so often on her releases. I wasted my morning to watch this crap!

Andreas Pantazis fails to qualify in the men's triple jump by not getting a mark. What else is new for some Greek athletes? 
The Greek men's 4 x 100 relay team failed to qualify for the finals, finishing 6th place with a time of 40.78

Antonios Merlos won gold for Greece in the Men's high jump! What a performance for the ages! 2.23 was the winning height and his new personal best. Roberto Vilches of Mexico also won gold resulting in getting identical stat with Merlos.
