Erki Nool won Heptathlon in Reval Hotels Cup (0)
Sydney Olympic Decathlon champion Erki Nool won the annual Reval Holels Cup combined events meeting - which he organises - with a more than respectable Heptathlon score of 6070 points this weekend.
The 34 year-old Estonian who has a personal best of 6374 (1999) had scored 6123 last year when coming second at this same meeting but can be more than satisfied with a victory at a lower score this year as he faced an exceptionally strong field.
In particular, back in fifth place was reigning World Indoor Heptathlon champion Roman Šebrle. The Czech who of course is also the Athens Olympic champion for the Decathlon, scored 5765 points.
