Where in the world is Jennifer Stuczynski?

[BruceFlorman]

Both the IAAF and I were under the impression that Jenn Stuczynski would be competing tomorrow in Stockholm (see http://www.iaaf.org/GP08/news/kind=100/ ... 46242.html and http://www.iaaf.org/GP08/news/kind=100/ ... 46079.html). She was listed in the PDF startlist published a few days ago (http://www.dngalan.com/main/images/stor ... 080719.pdf), but on the latest individual event startlist from the DN Galan site (http://213.115.129.176/dngalan08/18_6_1.HTML) she's been replaced by Catherine Laarsåsen. I don't suppose there's anyone here who can shed some light on what happened? I'd like to believe it's a mistake, but it's not looking that way at the moment.

Me too Bruce - that would be awesome. I was surprised to see her on the initial list as she seems the type to lay low until it counts. I think had she not got the silver at the indoors that she might want some more Euro experience, but ... she's been money every time it counts so I'm not going to 2nd guess her. Should be a GREAT Olympics!! Bubba

I bet she is fine and this is all part of a plan to make Isinbayeva too complacent.

But in the absence of American record holder Jenn Stuczynski, who is reported to be suffering from a recurrence of a back problem, this event lacked its centre point.

Sigh...

Jennski was slated for Monaco, but she's off the startlist now.

I hope she's not hurt... but I also hope she's not blowing it off for a less-than-compelling reason.
