The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Luke Zaya finished 418th of 581 men in the Open division at Rome 2026, in 1:33:20.
On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 3:26. The race faded late: the second half went 1:39 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Rome 2026 and Berlin 2026 were 1:37 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
