Too bad Savelkouls is out already, but great win for her to have been here in the first place, after one and a half year ago she was given 1% chance to ever walk normally again.

Feels like those Beijing world championships all over again with flying Van Niekerk and Schippers and such Lockdown training

Emotional interview with Kimmann, he especially broke into tears for a moment when saying this was also for Van Gorkom (who is watching in the TV studio and clearly emotional, even though due to the brain issues that's a bit harder to see). Also, the interviewer wanted to keep the interview going during the women's final Kimmann: "Can we watch her final first?" Interviewer: "Don't worry I'll keep you updated", and keeps going Kimmann (thinking 'screw this'): "Give me 30 seconds" and turns around to watch Smulders win bronze Then a few more questions, followed by Kimmann: "Thanks, I'm going to call my parents now if you don't mind"

There was an issue with his clothes? I just remember the vomiting

Wow, Shriever really went to the absolute limit of her legs

Smulders Wow that was unexpected!! And she follows in the footsteps of her sister

And after he crashed against that official, his first worry was not his own knee but how the official was doing, because he didn't look so good. Hopefully he's doing better as well now!

Daudet threw away a near-certain bronze

YES YES YES YES!!!!

Yeah I was rather amazed when he was genuinely wondering if we'll see Fields in the final

10.82 for Elaine Thompson-Herah, good morning.

Although at least I think she looked more 'hurt' than actually worrying. Not to say it's not bad, but something like a broken arm (much as it sucks) is not very worrying in terms of general health...

So it's Fields out, Van Gendt out, L Smulders out, Willoughby out, damn, total carnage.

Sakakibara crashes

At least Kimmann, with his knee injury, made it into the lottery quite easily.

That's why streams and choosing what you watch

Sam Willoughby, Kai Sakakibara, Jelle van Gorkom (although that was in training), and that's only the last few years..

I kind of hope that is the main thing.

But not likely to ride it. Extremely unlikely, that is.

Fields going down hard

Didn't even try anymore sadly (understandably)

All colourful and flashy and 'new', whereas this looks so gray, as if it's somewhere on the outskirts of a medium-sized industrial town where local kids race after school

I still remember when we got the 'Watch the gate' thing at our local club where I used to train BMX (for a year or so), that was cool Although I did sort of miss an actual starter saying it.

I understood before already, although I forgot who 'won' based on the criteria. Because there's a difference between ignoring the criteria and making a wrong decision, or the criteria simply being unfair (both of which suck, but in different ways ). The latter is something I am very familiar with, unfair criteria in Brazil...

Harmsen out, alright, but world champion Van Gendt out, that is quite the deception, damn.
