Fred kerley could easily triple in the 100 200 and 400, but gets blown out by keely in the 800
Jakob could crush the 800 1500 and 5k but probably loses to chebet in the 10k. Same thing with 400m if he went down.
A rudisha type wins 800 400 and has a chance at 200 and 100 but probably gets beat by ETH or shacarrie.
Could any male win 4 or 5 golds as a female in an olympics? Who has best shot?
Thoughts?
Are You out of Your mind, Jakob Ingebrigsten Could beat ANY WOMAN at 10k or Steeple or Marathon even the 400 what have the Woman ran this year High 48?

What?
I don't mean taking his lifetime fitness over a few years where he focused on one event over another. One point in time. And he has to do all the heats also(many on same day). Multiple 800 rounds. All the 1500 rounds. All the 5k rounds. And the 10k. I think he has issues doing it.
That is incorrect. Assuming the schedule presents no issues, Kejelcha, Gebrhiwet, and quite a few others could do the same. Kerr, the Goose, Hocker, the list goes on and on.
Actually did consider field events and jumps but this makes it interesting
Noah lyles could win 100 200 400 in his sleep. He has a high jump mark of 2.03m from high school which is gold medal worthy. Assume that means he can also win the long jump?
That's 5 individual golds, assume if he practices some triple jump he gets that too?
No way jakob can beat a female in any jumps or throwing a shot put.

but only Jakob can win 400H (if we use the women's hurdle heights) as well. :p

It would be a good race between Jakob and Sydney. I am not sure if he could beat her. She has run 48.74 for 400m and 50.65 for the 400H. It would be interesting.
A world class decathlete could win 5 or 6 individual events plus the heptathlon.
Yeah, Ashton Eaton's PRs are better than the women's WRs in the 100, 200, 400, 400H, HJ, PV and LJ and he could be competitive in the 800 at 1:55.9
I don't know how to adjust the throws for differences in weights but I would guess he could probably win those as well. In the 100H, he would be at a disadvantage because of shorter distances between barriers, but with 10.21 speed and a 13:35 in the 110H he could probably adjust, especially with the lower heights. So we are looking at him winning between 7 and 10 events, not counting the hep.

I think he would lose to Sydney and maybe Bol in the 400h because of a lack of technique (I know he was good in the 3000sc but it's not the same thing, way more difficult to pass hurdles at a high speed)
But he would win the Olympics in the 400m (48.5-49, could be close).
He wins without a doubt every race above, including the 3000sc and the marathon.
Not the only mid distance runner capable of that, though
