discus gold medalist Robert Harting (August 22 to 30) canceled his participation at the World Athletics Championships in Beijing. That gave the 30-year-old on Tuesday at a press conference in the National Training Centre Kienbaum. The World Champion of 2009, 2011 and 2013. had suffered a cruciate ligament injury last September 2014. Since then, he is no match practice and working on his comeback.
“The temptation was there, I always hoped. But unfortunately that is absolutely impossible. I can it not take for me personally. I would have because to take a risk that I can not go. If I went back tear my ACL, I could 2016 in Rio not start. So this decision is a mix of risk, gut feeling and power feeling “Harting said.
His full concentration is now considered the Olympics next year in Rio de Janeiro, where the Berlin repeat his success of 2012 in London want. Harting had always stressed not to risk his Olympic ambitions for a world launch in Beijing.
After his rejection Harting practiced in the current doping debate massive criticism of the German Athletics Federation and its president Clemens Prokop. “It shook me terribly, as our president Clemens Prokop is there perished rhetorically. Maybe it’s his candidacy for the IAAF Council. But a president must for its athletes to be there,” said the 30-year-old.
Harting accuses the DLV-chief, the anti-doping policy of the IAAF after the recent revelations by the ARD and the British newspaper “Sunday Times” is not clear enough have criticized. Also Procopius lukewarm response to a video protest of some German athletes to Harting and his girlfriend Julia Fischer had “huge disappointment.” Him “Such statements show again and again that this is all tactics. He would also sometimes criticizing the IAAF can practice. If it does not do the countries or organizations, who should do it, then?” Said Harting.
