European Champion Gina Lückenkemper has to worry about her medal chance with the relay over 4 x 100 meters and will have to do without the heat in any case.
But one is in good spirits that one can tackle a final, said the 25-year-old in the team hotel north of Munich’s Olympic Park. “Of course we don’t have a guarantee. But I definitely want to be able to support the girls.” You want to tackle big goals.
At the European Athletics Championships in Munich, Berlin-based Lückenkemper celebrated the first title win by a German woman over 100 meters since Verena Sailer in 2010 and fell immediately after crossing the finish line. She then had to go to the hospital because of a wound in her leg, where she had eight stitches. Four years ago she had won silver in Berlin, this time she was even more successful.
A few weeks ago, Lückenkemper won bronze with Tatjana Pinto, Rebekka Haase and Alexandra Burghardt at the World Championships in the USA. The preliminary heat for the European Championship is on Friday, and the medals will be awarded on Sunday. Preliminary candidates instead of Lückenkemper are Lisa Mayer (Wetzlar) and Lisa Nippgen (Mannheim) in the Munich Olympic Stadium.
