Symmonds FTW in ~1:43 high with Solomon right behind and Johnson in I believe 3rd with a Kenyan just behind him. Solomon went through 400 ~50 flat waiting behind Scherer then took it over himself. Symmonds stalked the whole way and kicked slightly ahead in the final straight.
I'm glad Symmonds got the win. Neither of them is a clear favorite over the other anymore. The rubber match will be Moscow. Johnson ran great too. These guys could do some real damage in Moscow. Could one of these guys pull off the gold? Could we come back with 2 medals?! All three of these guys are on point right now. Very exciting.
