CROSSFIT OPEN – MEN

Nicolai Duus from Crossfit Northvest in Copenhagen/Denmark smashed a time of 9.41 putting him on the top of the unofficial Leaderboard. However, on Friday, CrossFit announced that the top 3 finishers all received penalties after reviewing their videos on the basis of several reps not meeting the movement standards. Nicolai Duus was penalized 50 seconds taking his time of 9:41 and moving it back to 10:31. This penalty has thrown him back nine places down to 10th in the Europe region.

Here is his workout:

After the dust was settled it turned out to be Scott Cottrill of CrossFit Hilliard in Hilliard, Ohio with a time of 9:57. Cottrill did the workout judged by 2010 CrossFit Games champion Graham Holmberg.
