Femke Bol heeft vrijdagavond in München voor een unieke dubbelslag op een groot titeltoernooi in de atletiekwereld gezorgd. Het 22-jarige supertalent liep naar de Europese titel op de 400 meter horden. Twee dagen eerder was ze al Europees kampioene op de 400 meter zonder hindernissen geworden. Geen enkele vrouw deed dat eerder." [https://worldathletics.org/news/report/warholm-bol-european-championships-munich-day-five English source alternative]}}

|picclear = Personally I feel at 100px the current image is too wide to be useful for this nomination. I would suggest changing it for either the Brossier/Bol photo from the 400m semi or the Lehikoinen/Bol photo from the 400m hurdles final, but I will also leave this up to the promoter if they feel differently.

|qpq = y

|status = y

|comments = Both articles' prose meets 5x expansion. Readable prose on both also surpasses the target. Generally well sourced and well written, hook is also cited and interesting. Images are free, however some issues regarding the selected image (see above). 2 QPQs done to match the double bold articles. Besides potentially swapping the image out for another I'm happy to pass the DYK for these articles. Great job!

:Thank you for your review. I would prefer the Lehikoinen/Bol photo as alternative. – Editør (talk) 10:27, 30 June 2024 (UTC)

::Or a cropped version of the originally proposed photo if that is an option (cropped to a square, centered on Bol). – Editør (talk) 10:34, 30 June 2024 (UTC)

:::I've added a crop of the above. Not a square; this looks better (I looked at a square crop first). Schwede 66 02:51, 1 July 2024 (UTC)

::::Thank you, I'd prefer your crop. I think the hook and image caption should be changed to:
