It looked like it would be missing another medal for Tobias Muntler.
But the Swede jumped 8.06 meters in his last attempt to win the bronze medal at the European Championships before Sweden made a protest that could win the silver medal.
Friends at home send out movies about Duke’s first jump and it’s pretty clear she’s a homeless, says coach Yannick Tregaro at SVT.
Toilet in Eugene ended in disappointment for Thobias Montler But the Swede retaliated at the European Union in Munich on Tuesday.
The Swede looked like he had lost a medal, but on his sixth jump he finally flew a little further in a successful jump.
Montler jumped 8.06 metres, the same as Jules Pomery and Jacob Fincham-Dakes.
protest after bronze
When the competitors’ second-best jumps were counted, it meant Jacob Fincham-Dakes took the silver and Tobias Muntler took the bronze.
– It’s some mixed feelings. The last jump is directly over the edge of the plank. It’s a little disappointing that things haven’t improved from the start, but I’m still very happy because it’s going to be a medal, says Montler coach Yannick Tregaro at SVT.
Then he announced that he still hoped to get the silver medal for Montler. Sweden lodged a protest against Jacob Fincham-Duke’s leap, which they believed overstepped.
– Friends at home send videos of Duke’s first jump and she’s clearly a homeless. I think right must be right. They can decide that, but that shouldn’t be the case. But we’ll see what the judges say. It could be silver instead, says Tregaro.
