Gugl Games
The Gugl Games, formerly known as the Gugl-Meeting, is the largest one-day athletics meeting in Austria at the Linzer Stadion. Founded in 1988 the Gugl-Meeting was IAAF Grand Prix meeting from 1994 onwards and has changed to EAA Premium Status in 2006. Many big athletic stars have started at the Gugl-Meeting: Carl Lewis, Colin Jackson, Allen Johnson, Marion Jones, Iván Pedroso, Maria de Lurdes Mutola, Javier Sotomayor and many more. The Linz track is famous for fast 100 m sprints and excellent long jumps in the past.
On 20 August 2006, Israeli newspaper Ynet revealed that the competition does not accept European Pole vaulting champion, Aleksandr Averbukh, due to his Israeli nationality.[1]
After 4 years of interruption the meet restarted under its new name in 2012 and was held over two days. The 2015 edition was cancelled.[2]
