Hurdlers being introduced, and it looks as if it's stopped raining. That's good.

The chinese are fiendishly clever. Make it rain. Make 25,000 people wait until bitter end to watch local hero. Success. Meet director keeps job.

Re: Shanghai DL— 110mH m: Xiang Liu 12.97 +0.4w WL,MR

This means Liu is 100% back.
With his speed and technique, he should be a medalist in London...maybe gold.
