Tie goes to Salif!
The top two finishers in the men's triple jump - Salif Mane and Russell Robinson - both jumped 16.66 meters (54-8), but because Mane had fewer fouls, he has been named the #USATFOutdoors champion.
Mane trailed Russell by 55 centimeters going into the final round but was able to match him to claim the title.

A title decided by centimeters ๐
Salif Maneโs final-round 16.66m (54-8) matched Russell Robinsonโs best mark, but his 16.11m second-best jump proved enough to earn his first national title since 2024. ๐บ๐ฒ
