Jackson OUT Wow, she made herself completely ridiculous there. Just as Ross in the 400m, why are some people running so dumb when having a serious medal chance?

Jackson, that was incredibly dumb

This is where the kidnapped Belarussian was supposed to start

Let's go Lalova

Mboma really must have the ugliest/worst technique of anyone who has ever run a sub-24 200m.

She basically looked the way she's been looking for a long while. Dutch NOS has been hyping her into the final for a long time, but nobody who watches athletics actually believes that Even Jamile Samuel has a better chance, realistically speaking (and she doesn't have a big one at all of course).

One would say even a country like Pakistan could provide their athletes with something better than a regular t-shirt at the freaking Olympics

Doesn't look like Gayle's knee has recovered

Because he is the president of the national federation and with that, one may assume he is also a dictator buddy So, you know, free spots in the Olympics.

Next-day medal ceremonies when the main emotion and tiredness is gone

Too bad another proven doper is easily through.

Oh no, the permanently doped Tikhon is as good as out, that is sad

Not surprisingly, Kipyegon would have easily done the same, just like Muir

I mean, it is a bit of progress

Although he's closer to his PB than one Fajdek is to his own Potentially fake qualifiers have had way worse performances than Khodjaev.

Yeah, Van Klinken was 4th (?) in group A and then all of group B passed her

Ugh, seeing the disgusting Ivan Tikhon is one of the biggest disgraces of the Olympics.

Good morning! Not even 9am and already 31 degrees, it's gonna be a burner again

Thanks! I'll undoubtedly be back tomorrow

Right, wrestling has started, time for my Round of Stupid Questions Number one: I saw the Iranian guy in 60kg lose in the first round, but why did he lose? I thought I had learned that the last one to score wins, and since it was 5-5 and the Iranian was the last one to get points, I was sure he'd win! Which tiebreaker was used? Luckily no medals decided yet, because I've still got to watch everything else (I've only had time for the 60kg first round) but I am excited to watch

The colonial heart in the Belgian commentator is beating worryingly faster.

WTF Italy Hadn't even heard of this guy until a month or two ago

FUCK Hughes is out

Either him or that Nigerian dude who I wonder how many people had ever seen him run

Let's go for what I hope, Simbine in....say, 9.83
