After a heavy summer in discus, Daniel Stahl slips down the rankings.
He was the thirteenth best athlete in the world last year.
Now he’s free fall with 57 positions to 70th.
Yes, it was hard for him Daniel Stoll Throughout this season.
Fourth place in the World Cup in Eugene, fifth in the European Group in Munich, then fifth in the Diamond League final in Zurich last week.
The competition is now included in the world rankings and has raised Ståhl to the top of the list.
“It’s not good and I will sit down now and plan to train in the fall,” Daniel told Sportbladet in Zurich.
Why is it clearly worse than in previous years?
– I tried a lot and received and then the wrong movements. Last year it was all about autopilot and I didn’t have to think much.
What can you do for the next year?
It’s important to get better at most things, but above all technically. And then I can get physically stronger. And if you want to see something positive, I’m the one who threw the longest this year with 71.47 — for the seventh year in a row.
