Women hammer throw: 2:20pm
This is an event that has attracted three-time Olympic champion Anita Wlodarczyk (82.98) of Poland. Wlodarczyk basks in a personal best 82.98 metres throw. Our three athletes in Nancy Kanini (46.63), Lucy Omondi (52.82) and Roseline Rakamba (55.57) face a mountain to climb against top guns in Veronika Kanuchova (69.48) of Slovakia, Vanessa Sterckendries (69.91) of Belgium, Janee Kassanavoid (73.76) of USA, Bianca Ghelber (74.18) of Romania. Wlodarczyk looks an outright favourite. But it will turn out a huge experience for our hammer throwers.
