In 2012, he will be the same age as Jonathan Edwards was when he won his TJ gold.

He looks so disappointed

Nah mate- Philips is one of those athletes who just doesnt produce on the day. Its frustrating watching him.

He's 30 and until last year hadnt won a title (he won World indoors but then no everyone turns up to that).

He's good, but as a competitor- nah. He cant raise his game when needs to.

 

[Melinda]

Youse all talking to me?!

 

[TrippyLondoner]

Youse all talking to me?!

Yes!(i am anyway)

 

[Dan U]

Big up Phillip's, shame it wasn't Gold but i couldn't triple jump off my sofa.

i think he'll do better in london, and as he got so close this time, surely it will urge him on to better things - plus, it's a lot better than athens

 

[Melinda]

Quit moaning! Ive cleared it!

Good point!
He didnt have a measureable distance in Athens did he?! He got cut after the 3rd round.
