world Men Triple Jump History

Venue: Olympic Stadium, Amsterdam 31,600.
24 competitors from 13 nations.
World and Olympic Record: Nick Winter, Australia 15.525m Paris, France 12th July 1924
The field was divided into two sections, with the top six after three rounds taking three further jumps. In the first group Oda quickly took charge with 15.01 and emphasised his superiority with 15.13 and then 15.21, which would be the gold medal winning jump. Tuulos (14.73) and Tulikoura (14.70) qualified for the final stages, while the other group was won by Nambu (15.01) ahead of Casey (14.93) and Järvinen (14.65). Peters had a first round foul of around 15.05. In the finals, only Casey, with 15.17 and veteran Tuulos (15.11) improved, both gaining medals. Oda set 20 national records in Olympic events between 1922 and 1931 and won six Far Eastern Asian Games titles in the long and triple jump and decathlon. He retained a life long love of athletics and died in 1998 at the age of 93.
