12 of 16 go through, so if he cant make it to even number 12 all the hype was for nothing.

To be fair, no one hyped him. He is WR25 for a reason.

Many of these monsters are not even throwing at full tilt but still clearing 21m with ease.

Aussies win the first two Swimming events for the day

 

Marchand up next, probably will win his 4th Gold these games

Its not 12 from 16, Its 12 from 32.

There are two groups of 16 throwers each.
 

Toor will most probably come at 30th position overall.

[nitinbwj]

So this guy is the best shot putter Ind has sent

Oh, that makes so much sense. Btw they said 21.3 is auto qualify, so what happens if more than 12 throw that?

[Cricketics]

Toor should try  throwing Under Arm. Might go further.

If by hyping, you also mean 1/8(=12.5%) chance of a medal , then I did hype him many times.

[deepdynamo]

20.82 will be the 12th finalist.

 

So, Toor has to jump from 18.05 to 20.82.

 

C'mon, can he do it? 

 

[Cricketics]

Brazil guy worse than ours. Got three X in a row.

Another day another gold for Marchand.

In 2020 also, 20.9m was the 12th finalist.

 

Toor looks unlikely seeing his previous attempts.

 

So jao bhaiyon. Sorry for keeping you awake.

Archers need a true supporter like you. Even probabilities fail against them

Bloody goras are throwing so many medals in swimming. 

Hope we smash them in my life time.
