Caster under 1:56 again. This time she looked pretty evenly split.

Again, this has been a great meet so far. A lot of PBs and NRs being set, even in defeat.

m400H Meet and African record: 47.10 , Samuel MATETE (ZAM) set 07 AUG 1991.

Yeah, User, that caught my eye as well. What a deep record. When are we going to see that threatened?

m100 - exciting! Another revenge-win.

What a finish!

[tandfman]

It doesn't get any better than that!

So the shoulder is part of the arm and not the torso?

I know the answer. I think the photo read is questionable.

Gardiner falls at first step---no injury---just slipped!
Couldn't they have shot the recall gun??

I'm guessing they saw some separation upon magnification. The pdf result has them .001 apart.

Makwala - Mr. One-Off. A single day, he's incredible.

Elaine Thompson!

Pearson's form and attention to detail is amazing. Her lean was spot-on.

I hope so, because that is a *lot* of shoulder in front of Pearson, and a lot of $$ on the line.

Should Chelimo have been DQ'ed for his push at both Edris & Farah at the finish??

I noticed that and was wondering, aaronk. But when they showed the replay, it didn't seem to affect placement. I wonder if they would have DQ'ed him if he had literally displaced one of them from the standings?

So how did Hussein make it into the 400h final? He didn't qualify

He, along with Mujinga Kambundji in the 200 (and possibly someone else, I'm not sure) got a wild card from organizers.
