by the way, Shaunae Miller-Uibo is a very nice woman...just saw her interview and she looks a really positive and smiling girl...

I would say GB and Austria are the two most overperforming nations here so far alongside Jamaica and China.

 

Austria probably had 2 medal hopefuls and they both delivered. That's 100% execution.

 

DAS & KJT were two of the strongest individual medal hopefuls they had tbh. They will overperform if they win a gold in the relays!

Both were favorites for silver, but i dont think anyone expected gold from DAS or KJT and i dont see either of them winning gold in Tokyo.

So basically it's a race for the medals in the 1500m.  Whatever order Warner, Uibo and Kaul finish in, that's the medals most likely.

We will not get much in the 4x400m, but 4x100 is always possible for us. We won Gold in Athens even though we did not have a single finalist. Other people have done the same.

Well, given the schedule and Miller-Uibo going for 400, DAS was immediately upgraded as 200m favorite. Thiam's elbow injury proved to be real, she didn't throw over 50m all season and if she couldn't have those 12-15m on KJT there, she was never going to win gold. Not to mention KJT's result is 6th all-time so not exactly 22,52-level in 200m
