Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce withdrawing 

Apparently there's quite the stuff going on behind the scenes, no idea yet what's the official story. Rumour has it she wasn't allowed into the warmup area for whatever reason...

 

Might have been a matter of not being allowed instead of really withdrawing..

But they showed a clip on screen that she was walking in the warmup area? I also read tweets about a hamstring injury

There have been many Championships with 9 lane tracks, yet they were with 8 people. Why isn't the final with 9 people, if they are going to add people to the 1/2. Not a fan of weird bending of the system for some events (or people). Will see how many of the other short and middle distances will have 9 people semis.

9*3= 27 Semi Finalists as against 24 so…

Huh. It is confusing, apparently.

Alfons Juck said she was kinda let say "bullyed" by the organizers because she apparently arrived by unauthorized unofficial transport to the stadium and she was really angry when they pointed it to her
