World athletics championships, Filippo Tortu looks forward to it

Qualification in the night between Monday and Tuesday

In a few hours the 2022 World Athletics Championships will also begin for Filippo Tortu. In fact, the Italian athlete will take to the track in Eugene on the night between Monday and Tuesday for the 200-meter qualifier.

“I feel very good, I’m getting into better and better shape, I can’t wait to get on the track in a wonderful facility and in a city that means so much to world athletics – Tortu’s words before his race to the Fidal website -. For the final, if we do not need a time under 20 seconds we will still have to go very close, in my opinion under 20.03.”

Tortu then spoke about the relay, which gave him Olympic gold a year ago in Tokyo: “The emotion of winning a medal is too good to want to experience it only once.” Words spoken before Marcell Jacobs’ withdrawal from the 100-meter semifinals.”
