Daniel Stoll’s rival praises the Diamond League in Rome
A heartbreaking love drama prompted painter Christian Sieh to move to Estonia and coach Gerd Kanter.
Now the Slovenian is the best in the world.
Call him Michael Jordan, the discus thrower, he has the same talent and the same future, says Kanter, the old world thrower.
At 206 cm, the Slovenian bjässen has outstripped the Swedish Daniel Stoll In three consecutive races now.
On Thursday evening, they met again in the Diamond League in Rome.
But in just a month, the Slovenian sailed as the new favorite ahead of the World Cup finals in Eugene in July and beat Daniel Stahl as the world number one.
the reason?
According to many, he is moving to Estonia and the new coach Gerd Kanter.
The man who ripped big wounds at his home in Slovenia, where sledgehammer Anna Maria Orel, partner of Estonian Seeh, is accused of “stealing” the world number one from her home and also costing him a medal at the Summer Olympics in Tokyo.
When Anna Maria wanted to train with Christian See in Slovenia before the Olympics, old Slovenian coach Gorazd Ragir kicked her off the field.
This led to an injured brawl and Ceh separated from his coaching staff just a month before the start of the Olympic Games in Tokyo.
So when a Slovenian disappointed a fifth in the Olympic final, thrown without a coach and at home in Slovenia, wrestling was considered by many to be the cause of a medal loss.
And his partner, Anna Maria Orel, had to bear all the blame.
Sambon: Never been insulted before
I made her attack in a long post on Instagram.
I never suggested my friend break up with his coach so close to the most important competition of his life. I wrote: I supported him and we tried to fix the situation.
– I’ve never been so offended that he called someone who “stole an athlete from his coach”. Not a single thing that has been said about me is true and I will never let anyone bother me like this again.
But the rescue was close when Anna Maria was trained by former world star Gerd Kanter.
The Estonian who made Vestin Hefsteinson, coach Daniel Stahl, a world champion.
The 43-year-old Kanter won the Olympic gold in Beijing 2008 and the World Cup gold in Osaka the previous year, his third all-time with 73.38.
He never reached old German bowler Jürgen Schulte’s world record of 74.08, but he hopes to do so now as a coach.
Of course, it’s a big challenge and I’m a new coach. But he’s an extreme new talent. I love basketball and look like Christian to young Michel Jordan, he told Slovenian TV after the first competition of the season.
– I took the job because I think he could become an Olympic champion and he could break a world record.
In her previous two Diamond League tournaments, Christian See has won a world best time of 71.27 in Birmingham and 69.68 in Rabat.
What will happen in Rome?
