Phillips is pictured above during the final of the mens Triple Jump at the 2006 European Championships in Gothenburg. He could only manage a disappointing fifth place finish with a jump of 17.02m. At the Commonwealth Games earlier that year Idowu had performed far more impressively to win the gold medal with a leap of 17.45m.
