Ziaka Posted November 5, 2003 Posted November 5, 2003 This thread is reserved for Greek Athletes competing in International Competitions, such as international meets, Balkan Championships, etc. This does not include Olympics, World Championships and European Championships, which have their own threads.
Antaeus7 Posted October 13, 2016 Posted October 13, 2016 Nikoleta Kyriakopoulou is the first Greek athlete (male or female) to win a Diamond League event. When I watched that 4.80 m she passed over, I was amazed! She screamed like crazy! lol
Antaeus7 Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 (edited) The IAAF Diamond League starts one month from now in Doha, Qatar. If anybody have the list of Greek athletes participating in Doha other than Ekaterini Stefanidi, please let me know. Edited April 5, 2017 by Molon Lave
Antaeus7 Posted May 5, 2017 Posted May 5, 2017 Looks like it will be down to Morris and Stefanidi for the 8 points.
Antaeus7 Posted May 5, 2017 Posted May 5, 2017 Morris missed on her first try at 4.75, Stefanidi answers !
Antaeus7 Posted May 5, 2017 Posted May 5, 2017 Morris missed on her first try at 4.80, Stefanidi answers!
Antaeus7 Posted May 11, 2017 Posted May 11, 2017 Kostas Filippidis will be taking part in the Shanghai Diamond League event. I just hope he finishes in a respectful position, it will be hard to win this meeting with guys like Lavillenie, Lisek, Kendricks, etc.
Antaeus7 Posted May 13, 2017 Posted May 13, 2017 Filippidis finished 5th place with a height of 5.50 m. He gets 4 points.
Antaeus7 Posted May 27, 2017 Posted May 27, 2017 Eugene, Oregon is the next destination for the IAAF Diamond League. Kostas Filippidis will be in the men's pole vault event. They will show the events on NBC.
Antaeus7 Posted May 27, 2017 Posted May 27, 2017 Another disappointing finish for Filippidis, 6th place (3 points).
Antaeus7 Posted June 5, 2017 Posted June 5, 2017 Next Diamond League meeting will be held in Rome. Paraskevi Papachristou will be competing in the women's triple jump with 10 other participants. Of course, Ekaterini Stefanidi will be too.
Antaeus7 Posted June 8, 2017 Posted June 8, 2017 (edited) Very disappointing finish for Papachristou as she finished 10th (13.67) in the meeting. She couldn't advance beyond 3 attempted jumps. Edited June 8, 2017 by Molon Lave
Antaeus7 Posted June 8, 2017 Posted June 8, 2017 (edited) Stefanidi wins the Rome event (16 points total) after 2 meetings. Now she is going to attempt to break the national outdoor record at 4.91. Edited June 8, 2017 by Molon Lave
Antaeus7 Posted June 8, 2017 Posted June 8, 2017 No, she is going for the World record at 5.07!!! OMG, PLEASE DO IT!
Antaeus7 Posted June 9, 2017 Posted June 9, 2017 She failed on all 3 attempts, I honestly wanted her to break the record, but she is not ready to jump over 5 m.
Blackhawk Posted June 9, 2017 Posted June 9, 2017 She should first go for 4.95m creating a new Greek record and then set sights for the 5 meter mark.
Antaeus7 Posted June 9, 2017 Posted June 9, 2017 Thank you, that is what I was thinking! BTW, 4.90m would be the new Greek outdoor record. Her best was 4.86m.
Antaeus7 Posted June 28, 2017 Posted June 28, 2017 Emmanouel Karalis and Lykourgos-Stefanos Tsakonas will be taking part in the Paris Diamond League this coming Saturday.
Antaeus7 Posted July 1, 2017 Posted July 1, 2017 On Wednesday, June 28, 2017 at 4:44 PM, Molon Lave said: Milan Trajkovic broke the nation record for Cyprus in the heat at 13.27.
Antaeus7 Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 (edited) Ioannis Kyriazis will be a heavy favorite to win gold at the Under 23 European Championship in Bydgoszcz, Poland. I'm not saying that because I am being cocky, it's because no one in that group has thrown better than 85 meters both season and personal bests. Edited July 4, 2017 by Molon Lave
Antaeus7 Posted July 9, 2017 Posted July 9, 2017 Stefanidi won the London Diamond League with a mark of 4.81. No surprise there.
Antaeus7 Posted July 17, 2017 Posted July 17, 2017 Paraskevi Papachristou finished 3rd in the Rabat Diamond League with a jump at 14.21 to earn 6 points.
Blackhawk Posted September 1, 2017 Posted September 1, 2017 Stefanidi won the Diamond League with a 1st place today at Brussels with a jump of 4.85m. Tried to break the Greek record at 4.92m but failed.
