Kamalpreet first throw - 61.62m...
The Cuban with a 65.72m, and the American with a 68.98m!!!
Everybody else is 63 and under, and Kamalpreet is 6th after the first set of throws.
German with a 65.34m for an early third place.
Kamalpreet's second throw is a foul (stepped out), but it was only around 60 anyway.

Perkovic will go big on one throw.

I think the target is 66 now.

The German got 65.34.

Not a foul

She threw less than 60 and walked off to take a deliberate foul.

This is so damn unfair. They are all slipping and falling. What a joke.

I see it's raining, conditions are horrible for any competition to take place one of them slipped actually, why are they still getting ahead with it? it allows undue advantage to throwers who already had 1 or 2 good throws.

At least they paused now.

Perkovic would have been eliminated.

They stopped it now. If so, they should've stopped the moment it started drizzling, rather ask 3 or 4 poor throwers do it (I am surprised that they all did it without complaining). And now we see these idiots trying to dry it when the rain keeps falling. What is wrong with these fools? Hello? A cover for it, por favor?

Yeah, Sin Hombre, they stopped it when they saw that Perkovic would get eliminated. How ridiculously unfair to others.
