WOW, Steve's really kicking a** and taking names, up another 4 places...
That's a very accomplished list of athlete's that were expected to be there on Sunday.
The guy who posted that the aussie's weren't in the same league as the US athlete's will be having some second thoughts about that now I think

Steve is definetely top 16 he pulled 13:06 for WOD 5 which is a top ten placing for that WOD.

Official scores not yet published.

Its official Steve goes into tommorow 5th out of 16 finalists.

3 WODs rumored to be 1 RM Snatch, AMRAP in 8 mins of 4 HSPU,KB Swing and GHD Sit Up and a hopper WOD.

Unfortunately the other three aussie/nz quals didn't make top 16 but they all made it to the last WOD and finished above some big names.

Awesome work.

OMG talk about bringing an A game and taking it to them.. Tomorrow will be one hell of a day.

The would have been some quality OMG looks when the were announcing the Top 16 especially with Steve @ #5...

Looks like they found Josh Everatts weakness, running hills and trails, since he did a few videos before the games abd one of them was about having a weakness that he didn't share.
