Belgium's triple Olympic champion Nafi Thiam has pulled out of the heptathlon at the World Athletics Championships after an underwhelming long jump left her with almost no chance of a medal.
The 31-year-old, who won world titles in 2017 and 2022, failed to get over the six-metre mark with her two legal jumps on Saturday morning to stand in eighth place in the overall standings, 377 points behind competition-leader Anna Hall.
