Jessie Knight crashed into the first hurdle

 

It would have been embarassaing in 100H but even more so in 400H.

Whyte DQ again.

False start in this heat too and White is DQ.

 

Nugent got busted for running outside the lane in Heat 2 so it's been a total failure for them so far.

“She only took it to help her hair grow after she was humiliated by her wig falling into the long jump pit”.  Going to run that one past her lawyers, I think the Swiss will go for it.

Muhammad wins the final heat.

 

Linkiewicz with PB and finished ahead of Zapletalova (who still advances as LL).

Femke Bol just confirmed she won't run the mixed 4x400m. There goes the remote medal chance that was left after USA and DOM were placed back in the final. Although it's entirely understandable, of course.

Too nervous was Emma today lol, but luckily she made it to the semis

I have a feeling Bol still wins a medal in 400h. I don't see anyone spoiling the McLaughlin/Muhammad/Bol podium
