During the men's pole vault on Sunday afternoon, the focus was on Armand Duplanti's world record hunt.
At the same time, Melker Svärd Jacobsson, 27, had desperately jumped for an Olympic ticket, even though he had actually already qualified for the Olympics in rankings.
SOK requires 5.80 in pole vault for the men to go to the Olympics.
A height Svärd Jacobsson has not managed this season.
Today he stayed at 5.52.
Therefore, it does not look like there will be an Olympics for the former European Championship bronze medalist from 2019. And now the whole career can have an abrupt end.
- It has been so many years of trouble, but now I am qualified and then SOK says stop.
Unfortunately, I think this was the last competition, he says to Aftonbladet.
"I have zero understanding"
SOK will make its final decision on Monday.
Svärd Jacobsson directs harsh criticism at SOK's demands.
- If only the top eight are to participate, they do not need to have more than 8 in each branch at the Olympics.
It is incomprehensible to put it bluntly.
If I am not allowed to go, someone worse will get the place instead.
I have zero understanding for that, he tells the newspaper.
Lovisa Lindh and Michaela Meijer are also waiting for information from SOK regarding their participation in this summer's competitions.
