Yes, yes, even the heaviest favorites sometimes do not win (Bubka '92), but we
were talking about Inger having a "good chance" to beat Marion, and she did not.

Yes, and it took a season-ending injury to take it from her.

BTW, Marion is not consistent in the LJ, but she could bust a 24'/7.30m at any
time. She may have the highest "up side" among the contenders, but I wouldn't
consider her the favorite, by any means.
