I would rate Blaskowski's result today as very good.
He was up against top level competition, and finished 4th. Finishing behind Olympic and World Championship medalists like Bednarek and Christian Coleman is nothing to be ashamed of.
Plus he beat Letsile Tebogo, who is the Olympic 200m Champion.

So not a bad showing at all. He proved that he belongs at this top level of competition and that his recent 9.89 time was no fluke.
Well done Sam.

Agreed. He backed it up with a good, albeit, windy sub 10 time. Consistent improvement is the goal especially against top ranked competition.

this.

another noteworthy aspect is that his time was impressive even with several hiccups in the race. that he can drop such a fast time with all the (suddenly present) pressure and without an error-free run bodes VERY well for his future.
 
I have a young sprinter from Belgium to keep an eye on . Sam Van Dooren is only 18 and just ran a 10.24 +0.7. This is a very good
time and this is what makes it more impressive. The kid only has a p.b. in the 60 meters of 6.94. That's very slow. So he isn't very
explosive and lacks the strength needed for a good drive phase yet he expodes over the last half of the 100 meters. Just a thought
that this kid could become a very talented sprinter in the near future!
