Jacko GILL has been now the 32th thrower in the world to break this symbolic line . The first one being the Russian Alexandr BARYSHNIKOV  with just 22.00m in Paris in 1976 …47 years ago ! 15 of them were American !

It is a break through in Jack GILL career which started in 2008 . 15 years ago !

This career had highs and lows after an exceptional start in the U18 and U20 age groups where he was multiple world champion and world record holder. Since then,  although he was consistently present in the top ten of the World champs and Olympics , people were still expecting better from him and asking questions on what was going on with him and thinking that we had seen it all from it.

But Jacko is STILL EXCEPTIONAL and this new,  so long waited for PB over 22m could well be the signal for another brilliant period in perspective of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games .
