Rogers' easy throw in qualifying would have gotten 4th in Tokyo.

Today, as for medal chances, we have Ethan Katzberg in the men’s hammer throw final, Wyatt Sanford boxes against Oumiha in the semifinals of men’s 63.5kg, Andre DeGrasse goes in the men’s 100m semis (and maybe even the finals), and our women’s 4x100m medley relay will be hitting the pool on the final day of swimming.

Yeah, not really busy today. But a great chance at gold later on. I've stayed up late enough here. Time for bed. See y'all at swimming tomorrow!

54.80 for Savannah Sutherland. Through to the semis.

Wtf? To me that round clearly looked all Sanford? And yet three judges went in favour of Oumiha…
