The seventh round of the POLIAC Golden League tournament delivered more sensational results and ultimately shaped the very top of the table. There was a breakthrough in the race for the season record and a symbolic, though minimal, return for the defending champion.

Sensations and Key Decisions:

New Season Record (SGLB) for @merthin: The biggest highlight of the round is the incredible score by @merthin – 41907 steps (SGLB)! This is the new season record for the Golden League. Interestingly, despite this historic achievement, @merthin only has 6 points, but his battle with @erikklok was one of the fiercest.

New League Leaders and a Crucial Victory:

@danmaruschak strengthened his position by winning the headline duel against @racibo (30503 to 10905 steps). Thanks to this win, @danmaruschak and @benbow2017 (who defeated @mushanov) lead the league with a perfect 21 points.
@racibo lost his undefeated status, dropping to 3rd place.

The Defending Champion's Return: The most decorated player, @bucipuci, finally broke his losing streak, securing his first 3 points of the season in a match against @patif2025. This is a symbolic victory that gives him hope for a return to the competition, despite still occupying a distant position.

Important Victories in the Chasing Pack:

@revlat35 defeated @new.things (25208 to 17942 steps), which is a valuable win in the fight for the TOP 8.
@manuvert secured a clear victory over @itz.inno, recording his Season Personal Best (SPB) of 33688 steps. This propels him into the TOP 8.
@wahacoce defeated @browery and remains in the leading pack.

Best Among Losers: @erikklok (27327 steps) received the Best score among losers award despite his loss to @merthin.

GOLDEN LEAGUE Schedule

Ranking table for GOLDEN LEAGUE

The seventh round of the POLIAC Silver League tournament brought about the final formation of the leadership, creating a powerful Group of Five fighting for promotion. The winners of this round pulled away from the rest of the table, and one of the favorites set a new season record.

Round 7 Summary:

The most impressive performance of the round belonged to @actifit-godfish. The player relegated from the Golden League set his Season Personal Best (SPB) with a score of 26892 steps, which was also the best result of the entire round and secured him the 100 AFIT award. This victory over @ronnie10 by such a margin placed him firmly in the lead pack.

The Promotion Group Solidifies

Round seven was decisive in identifying the five main promotion candidates, four of whom currently hold the top positions:

@flemingfarm (22909 SPB): The leader recorded another Season Personal Best and a comfortable win, strengthening his sole lead with 21 points. His total step count exceeded 124 thousand, representing absolute domination.
@caspermoeller89 (23458): The debutant maintained his incredible form, achieving the second-best score of the round. Along with @actifit-godfish, @silvertop, and @davidthompson57, he forms the vice-leader group with 18 points.
@davidthompson57 secured a crucial victory (15754) that kept him in the top five.
@silvertop recorded another great score (17488) and an easy win over @svanbo.

Fighting to Stay in Contact

@jjprac and @homesteadlt increased their point totals to 12 points, joining @alovely088 and @asia-pl. These four players will wage a fierce battle to regain a position in the TOP 5.
