Paris 2024 Olympics: “No worries” for Kevin Mayer, still not qualified after his retirement in San Diego

The world record-holder in the deathlon did not finish the series Thursday in the United States, due to a problem with the big right-hand driver, but he says he is confident for the Olympics, for which he must withdraw his entry ticket before June 30th.

The double Olympic vice-champion in the discipline seems to be suffering from a right leg. He has until June 30 to reach the minimum requirements for participation in the Olympic Games.

Having started well in his quest for the Olympic minima, Kevin Mayer had to stop prematurely in the decathlon he is competing in San Diego. He was hampered in his right thigh and could not cross his first bar at 1.89 m.
