Kevona shut it down 40m out ..no rival in both 100 n 200 at champs 2020 Kevona will go 22.00.n 10.98
@Martin Curling Ashanti actually ran in a headwind of -2.5m/s and still was the fastest on the day.
Martin Curling Kevona Davis, just did 22.86, that rivalry?
@Winston Smith Mba are u a dunce why are u repeating what Martin said?
based on yesterday…any money for Moore to beat Davis in any sprint event is wasted money…22,86 converts to 22 low on mondo…unless Moore playing possum…
Let’s just pray and encourage both young ladies
Big showdown in Class 1 100m finals, if both reach the finals, between Kevona and Ashanti. Historically, Ashanti has not focused on 200m. I think she trains for the 100/200, she will equally competitive as Kevona.
@Martin Curling Kevona Davis, just did 22.86, that rivalry?
Moore does 24 on mondo and Davis does 22.86 on grass…that’s not a rivalry…
The rivalry will come in the 100m…! That where more is strongest.
