Ntrismpioti still hangs on to 3rd place in the women's walk.

Well, the age & repeated injuries have caught up with Włodarczyk. She had won her share of (mostly) gold medals and should retire after Paris OG.

They can easily change the rules because vertical jumps are not attempt limited. I would say at least one extra jump before a tie can be offered.  Also who gets to make the offer?  Moon definitely put Kennedy on the spot by offering, but why should she take the initiative?  

There is no "offer" so to speak. If one of them disagrees for a tied medal the jump-off goes ahead regardless what the second person says.

The last time a jump-off went ahead was probably European Indoors in 2015 (Kuchina vs Trost). One year before at World Indoors in Sopot Kuchina & Lićwinko agreed to share the gold. Lićwinko said she asked Kuchina if she wants the jump-off and Kuchina said she's OK with the shared gold.

Regarding the shared golds, everyone tied for gold can just decide together to stop jumping and then what...? 3, 5, 9, 12 shared gold medals become the norm?

 

Jump-off or DQ.

 

This is senior WCh not kindergarten. Athletes should aim to be the best.

There won't be more than 3 shared medals at any stage in vertical jumping events IMO. In reality only PV and HJ are affected because the number of jumps per height is fixed. Ties in horizontal jumps and throws are separated by the second best attempt. So nobody will change the rules that affects only two events of the entire lot.

Warholm wins, McMaster second, Benjamin only third.

Isn’t there? Pretty sure there is…..

They settled for shared gold so jump-off at lower height is voided.

Obviously no jump-off in PV so two golds for Kennedy & Moon.

Yeah, Paulino was out of reach but Kaczmarek did her best there and managed to have enough stamina for the home straight.

That should be our last medal at these World Champs.

Silver for Kaczmarek!!!

Alright, time for women's 400 m final. Maybe a second medal for Poland...

Ingebrigtsen showboating from SF counts for nothing. Tough sell being a celebrity like that. Funny how the second came from nowhere to win bronze.

USA announcers don't understand the rules on total misses at lower heights.    They think Moon is in 2nd because she has one miss at a higher height.

 

That's not how it works. Total misses at all heights is the second tie-breaker

Yeah, that would be 12.5X time without the hurdle clip most likely. 12.55 from SF1 wasn't enough for FL spot.

12.55 for 4th place in 100H SF1. Pia Skrzyszowska would have to run almost PB to make the final now (since Ali & Camacho are in her SF).

Wilma Murto first time over 4.80 and takes the lead again.

Moon will have to jump higher to even get a medal.

Wilma Murto first time over 4.75.

False start in 3000 SC SF3

Batocletti was soo close to the National Record

Another chance in the final?

Kipyegon visibly trolling around, let Hassan win that SF

Wagner boss Yevgeny Prigozhyn died in a plane crash (speculation about it being shot down). No real surprise. The man was walking dead ever since the failed coup attempt.

Caune 15:00.48 PB so she lowered her best mark by three seconds compared to U-20 Euro Champs where she lapped the entire field.

Polish ES speculate Caune wants to break Zola Budd's U-20 European record (14.48.07).

Skydan 77.10 NR in hammer quals.

Caune going for the early breakaway

Lane draw for W 400 meters final: 4. Adeleke, 5. Klaver, 6. Kaczmarek, 7. Paulino, 8. Williams

Wow, javelin throw group B was such a massive disappointment.

 

Jasiūnaitė, Kolak, Tzengko, Borge, Tugsuz out

And all this with ZERO competing in women's javelin. That must be the first time that ever happened in a global event?

That was some crazy 3000 SC final!
