What has happened to the men's long jump? It has been 2 decades since anyone broke 29',almost no one has gone 28' and the winner this year barely broke 27'.
Ashton Eaton went 27' during his record setting decathlon effort at the trials. I thought that was pretty impressive (along with his other marks) but like you was surprised at the lack of improvement on the world stage in this event. Maybe Usain Bolt should give it a try?
