  1. Wasn't the bigger problem that she qualified at the OQT where, due to timing her nationality change perfectly, Bulgaria skirted the rules and basically unfairly (not officially, but yeah....) had two chances in the same weight class? Maybe I'm mistaken, there's so much going on
  2. Massive anticlimax when they didn't show Anraku's score at the end, so it was a matter of guessing (or counting yourself) what the situation was...
  3. Sure, we don't need to see live scores on-screen..
  4. Sure, it just doesn't make Tebogo look better when mentioning it that way in a press conference Only reason to say something like this is to try and create some drama
  5. And there is Thiam's gold, three in a row in the heptathlon
  6. Yeah, she already seemed somewhat injured after the high jump and never really got in contention for the medals at all. Judging by how she looked sitting there on the stands, she's not exactly heartbroken, probably saw it coming for a while already
  7. Tebogo: "I can't be the face of athletics, because I'm not loud and arrogant like Noah." Lyles: "I want to congratulate Tebogo and Bednarek on an amazing 200m final." Come on Tebogo, don't pull that shit, I want to keep liking you I liked this by Lyles: Gonna be asking my colleague whether he watched, after my vacation
  8. To think Wanyonyi almost would not have made it here. At the Kenyan trials he had forgotten his bib before the semis and had to run (!) back to his hotel, 800m or so (luckily not that far). Ran back, started his semi easy to not go crazy, but because of that he ended up in a mess and fell....but got back up and was just in time to qualify for the final which he then easily won
  9. Unlike Paris...even the morning sessions, which have no finals, are absolutely packed
  10. Yeah, everything for the Americans, but it's a shame for the event. Mornings don't have that special finals atmosphere
  11. Johnson-Thompson with a good throw to somewhat stay in the fight for gold, although she'll need a big disappointment for Thiam in the javelin.
  12. Jesus, Hall Just casually stepped on the line and fouled a more than excellent first throw. That is such a rookie mistake.
  13. Sure, but it does make one wonder about the decision making process. Might have been better off putting him in the more anonymous 2nd or 3rd position.
  14. Glad we're not really having that anymore Finals should be in the evening sessions.
  15. Phenom Quincy Wilson with a 47.3 opening leg.
  16. I wonder if they'll get in administrative trouble, considering it's Scotch and the other usual 400m names on the start list.
  17. Looks like everyone saw the women's race yesterday and decided it wasn't worth going to the men's race, since from the stands you really don't see anything anyway
  18. Yep, the track cycling programme has lots of room to improve. You know, like this nonsense omnium format, like the individual pursuit that just should never have been taken out. Other sports and stuff are added left and right and things like track cycling get their programmes undressed bit by bit.
  19. Which is a shame of course looking at the big picture of things, but understandable considering going for the easy medal is a lot...well, easier
