Dani Samuels was ruing a huge opportunity missed after finishing an agonising 44 centimetres short of a womens discus medal at the Rio Olympics.Samuels started Tuesdays final well and finished it slightly better, with her sixth throw of 64.90m leaving her in fourth spot, narrowly behind bronze medallist Denia Caballero from Cuba (65.34m).Croatian powerhouse Sandra Perkovic had only one legal throw of 69.21m, but it proved enough to give her a second straight Olympic title.Fourth for Samuels was clearly her best performance at a global championships since she became the youngest-ever discus world champion at the age of 21 back in 2009.But that was proving scant consolation.Ive come ninth and 11th at my previous Olympics and now fourth and now I think about it, those positions all suck, she said.Ninth you just missed the top eight and fourth you just missed the medals.I guess Ill have to come back for (the 2020 Tokyo Olympics) because this is the only medal I dont have.After showing nerves of steel in wet conditions on Monday night to nail a big qualifier on her last throw, Samuels carried the momentum into the opening round of the final, only to get bogged down in the middle rounds.I know I was in the shape to throw a lot further than 64 but it comes down to who performs on the day and I fell short, she said.Middle-distance runner Ryan Gregson, pole vaulter Alana Boyd and all three entrants in the womens 5000m all performed well on Tuesday.Gregson eased through his 1500m heat in second spot and looks right on track to qualify for his first major final.Gregson was checked with 200 metres to run but had the speed to run five wide down the home straight, crossing the line in three minutes 39.13 seconds behind 2008 Olympic gold medallist and three-time world champion Asbel Kiprop from Kenya.That was a big step forwards and it felt great, he said.I just thought Id be patient. Thats my best way to run.Gregsons training partner Luke Mathews was eliminated after coming 12th in his heat in 3:44.51.Boyd enjoyed a stress-free progression through to the womens pole vault final, clearing 4.45m and 4.55m at the first attempt and then passing at 4.60m, confident she had already done enough.Among the other qualifiers for the final on Friday (Saturday AEST) were reigning Olympic champ Jenn Suhr from the United States and rising New Zealand star Eliza McCartney.In-form trio Eloise Wellings, Madeline Heiner-Hills and Genevieve LaCaze all booked spots in the womens 5000m final.Wellings was backing up from a big PB in the 10,000m on day one of the track and field program, while Heiner-Hills and LaCaze both recorded top-10 finishes in the 3000m steeplechase.But high-profile Michelle Jennekes campaign was over almost before it began after she was eliminated in the opening round of the womens 100m hurdles.Alex Hartmann did not advance from the heats of the mens 200m.
