Lol. My parents were actually calling for the 800m women to be added to the GB 4x400 squad. 

Has worked before.

Poor KJT. It seems not only we have such an unlucky Olympics (not in athletics of course, the results of athletics team are only slightly worse than expected)

Dafne Schippers should race. I think Visser will replace her.

Pretty sure Schippers and Vissers are already part of the starting 4. It's usually Visser/Schippers/Samuel/Sedney in an order I can't remember. I assume Van Hunenstijn is the first reserve.

Nowicki 82,52 PB!!!  Feeling that gold already...

 

Henriksen with another NR 80,31 and into 3rd place.

Wow, Nowicki is like a slingshot in this final. And its only the 3rd attempt...

In terms of names, this 800m final feels rather underwhelming  

 

Really should be Amos..

Men's 800m final next. Well, Dobek will be lucky if he's not boxed on the home straight tbh.

Could have  medal for the first time.
