USA Team Finalized for World Championships

Jul 22, 2013 by Jimmy Stevenson

Below is the USA Team for the World Championships in Moscow, Russia. The names that are not in the tables are either reigning World Champs from Daegu or Diamond League Champs who have received an auto-bid to compete in Moscow.

If a name is italicized that person had an opportunity to qualify for Worlds by hitting a certain standard, but they failed to hit the standard and will not be competing in Moscow.
