3 103 Darvis Patton 77 USA
4 104 Tyson Gay 82 USA

7 116 Michael Frater 82 JAM
8 114 Rae Edwards 81 USA

Decent field. A lot of questions to be answered in this race. The most important is the health and readiness of Gay. Hopefully he can perform through the groin problem. Was Powell really "tired" from TWO rounds of running like his agent said? Even if he has a great race, if he can't handle 2 rounds how is going to handle the 4 in Berlin? Also there was speculation that Frater was nursing an injury, which is why he hasn't competed in a bit. We will see what kind of shape he is in. Patton got a good lane. Can he turn that into a good time?

Was there another thread on this? I had thought they were claiming he was OK?

Mr. Gay is dealing with his groin problem and doesn't expect it adversely affect his race today.

Not to be picky but you guys have a habit of posting the race line ups without putting the time. Then i end up missing the live races. :lol:

Powell's agent seemed to indicate that most of his tiredness was due to recently going thru a pretty 'heavy' phase of training, with the rounds being a secondary reason.

Man, you can never do a good thing without somethone finding a fault. I don't know the eact time, but it begins after 12:45pm EST.

[Dietmar239]

Stockholm is six hours ahead of NYC. The start time for the 100m (A-Race) is 21.05 which translates to 9:05 PM. Subtract six hours from that (for NY time) and the race will start at approximately 3:05 PM on the eastern seaboard.

Why do you have me doing math prior to my coffee?

[scottmitchell74]

[scottmitchell74]

Sort of slow for the "B" men.

Spearmon showing his late in the season readiness.

After watching the swimming world championships the entire week, it's really unbearable to see any false start.
