German medal hopes

After the German team finished first in the medal table at the 2022 European Championships in Munich, a year later at the World Championships in Budapest there was a big disappointment: In 49 decisions, the DLV team did not win a single medal – it was the worst performance by a German team ever at a World Athletics Championships. Nevertheless, some German athletes are again heading to Rome as favorites for a medal at the continental showdown – or at least as defending champions.

  • Niklas Kaul (Decathlon, 26 years, PB: 8691 points): World Champion 2019, European Champion 2022.
  • Konstanze Klosterhalfen (1500 to 10 000 metres, 27 years old, PB 5000 metres: 14:26.76 minutes): 2022 European Champion over 5000 metres.
  • Gina Lückenkemper (100 meters, 27 years, PB over 100 meters: 10.95s): 2022 European Champion over 100 meters and 4×100 meters.
  • Malaika Mihambo (Long jump, 30 years, PB: 7.30 meters): Olympic champion 2021, world champion 2019 and 2022, European champion 2018.
  • Yemisi Ogunleye (Shot put, 25 years, PB: 20.19 metres): Second World Indoor Championships 2024.
  • Kristin Pudenz (Discus throw, 31 years old, PB: 67.87 meters): Olympic silver medalist 2021, European silver medalist 2022.

  • Julian Weber (Javelin throw, 29 years, PB: 89.54 metres): European Champion 2022.

Indoor Athletics Championships

:The old Malaika again

After her injury break, Malaika Mihambo landed back in the world elite with 6.93 meters. But the 30-year-old faces unusually strong competition at the German Indoor Championships – to the delight of everyone involved.

By Ewald Walker

Leo NeugebauerGerman decathlon record holder, will not compete in the European Championships, but will compete in the US College Championships in Eugene.

Stars of the European Athletics Championships

Even though the big stars from the USA, Jamaica and the African countries are missing, there are some top international stars competing at the European Athletics Championships in Rome. An overview of the favorites:

  • Armand Duplantis (Pole vault, 24 years old, Sweden): Probably the superstar of the European Championships. Since the 2021 Olympic Games in Tokyo, he has always won gold at the Olympics, World Championships or European Championships. In April 2024 in China, he improved the world record for the eighth time, which currently stands at 6.24 meters (Pole vault final on 12 June at 20:20).
