Another American 1-2!! :banana:


Well done both of them, must have had to do a Q14 somewhere.

 

Incidentally, everyone is preparing in the infield which keeps the meet fast, but kills off the Jav, Discus & Hammer.  Let’s hope no-one gets ideas....

Unbelievable!  Obviously the influence of the green lights which showed him where he was at every moment.  And massive respect to the lapped :SUI runner who got out of the way - so few lapped runners do that anymore! 

I saw that as well. Great respect shown there.

 

Also, the 3rd American 1-2 today. This time by the Lyles brothers in the 200m.
