Was finally able to see the Čeh throw because of work. Amazing performance. Him and Alekna can dominate for a decade. I fear this is the beginning of the end for the swedish viking though. Or perhaps this can push him towards new heights.

Only two finals tonight? Women's discus & 3000 SC.

Excellent, I should be able to watch the entire session in roughly an hour then, instead of 1,5 hours, before starting work tomorrow

Excited for 400s tonight, a lot of British interest. Also kicking myself that I didn't stay up for Jake Wightman's 1500m win last night. Stayed up till 3:28 GMT and didn't bother watching the final, which started at 3:30 GMT, as I didn't expect us to win anyway.

Women's javelin Q has started. 3x medallist Lyu only 53 meters but Jasiunaite 63.80 and Q. @Werloc

Oh wow, Liveta 

 

This is why I have her as a dark horse medalist in my predictions.

 

I don't know how she does it, but she always overperforms when it matters.

18cm off from her NR that she set back in 2019, really nice to see her throw this far again

Semenya gone in 5,000 SF1, 13th place so she is out.

[Monzanator 4,525]

World-leading Maggie Malone out in javelin Q with only 54.19.

 

Kim Little's 59.06 was enough to qualify with the 12th best result.

McBride knocked down in 800m heats.
