Will Claye take a medal? Nope.
-
That's how I would have felt if he had run, say, 12.90 or something and Parchment was still faster
-
23.30m for Crouser
-
He was in the lead and gave it away, as the top favourite, and he was quite far below his earlier level. It's not the kind of mega chokes you see in shooting, but it does fit the description.

And this is why like Martina. After he didn't even really get to race in his only event: "These guys did their best and they got to run, I'm proud of them. If this is how it goes, that's what it is, better luck next time and I'll keep doing my best for them and for everyone who set their alarm to watch!" Asked about his future: "Look, if I become a millionaire, I'll have nothing else to do and you'll see me in Paris, but if not, I really should do something else to earn my money."

Choke for Holloway
-
And Ghana in!
-
USA and the 4x100, gotta love it
-
Ah fuck, that's a sad last Olympic appearance for Churandy Martina
-
22.93m, Crouser starting to warm up.
-
A medal could be a little Triki, but not impossible!
-
Too bad it takes a long while for the javelin to start And better get up, we've got both a shot put WR attempt and a (gold?) medal attempt coming up
-
Oosterwegel can make up 100+ on everyone in front of her with the javelin, possibly even 200+ on Vidts (although Vidts is of course performing great). As always, with emphasis on 'can', it's based on previous performances, not on a crystal ball Especially Kunz, Williams and Ahouanwanou should be beatable on the 800m as well, with Bougard being better, but also the one who might lose the most on javelin throw. It really is a tight battle for bronze with at least four realistic winners of it.

These Kenyan podium clothes
-
Entirely depending on her elbow. I really hope it holds and she can have a normal throw there, in which case Vetter needs something amazing to pass her. Normally Vetter should be able to run for silver as long as she has a not-terrible javelin throw.

1. Thiam 6891 (-122) 2. Vetter 6820 (+184) 3. Oosterwegel 6510 (+202) 4. Vidts 6508 (+268) 5. Annie Kunz 6473 (-230) 6. Williams 6483 (-200) With two events to go. Potentially tight battles for both gold/silver and bronze/nothing and especially the latter I did NOT expect to be between these ladies
-
Meanwhile Emma Coburn is having an excellent heptathlon under the name of Annie Kunz.
-
To be fair, that horrible exchange Visser - Schippers cost a LOT of time
-
6,47m for Vetter. If Thiam doesn't improve in her last attemt, she is under major pressure from Vetter on javelin..
-
Schäfer stuck at 5.78m, that is some major disappointment there even though she has been sick.
-
Oh wow, Netherlands reaches the final on time
-
Great, Schippers starting WAY too early. That's it for any remote chance for the 4x100 women.
-
Schäfer still only at 5.73m after two attempts, she badly needs to improve.
-
6.42 for Vetter! Pressure on the main competition.
-
Thiam also starts with an X.
