This might sound like an ignorant question, but will Noah Lyles be getting the prize money since he took the win?
Great run by him to salvage a lackluster, injured end of the season.
20 years old... good lord...

Lyles ran 19.90. Not a lackluster season for a 20 year old.
Michael Norman--his 200m HS cohort--has been injured most of the year yet managed a low 45s 400m this year.
Lyles, Norman, and Lyles' younger brother are still ones to watch in the coming years in the 200m and 400m.
I thought that was Marge Simpson running, but it turns out it was Bahta
1:01.80 at 400m, 2:07.83 at 800m, 2:55 at the bell, Hassan and Kipyegon are fighting down the back stretch. Kipyegon, 3:57:07, running wide the entire last lap. Wow.

Anyone know where Allyson Felix is? Does she make so much from endorsements she doesn't care about the money? Or was she protecting her image since she lost in London?
Fans have go to be annoyed at how few DL races she runs.
She does not need the money, she is getting up in age and has been doing fewer DL meets each year. Oceania, Caribbean, North/South Americans have been skipping DL meets; the DL is slowing becoming Africa and Europe.
Kipyegon and Hassan practically ran that entire race together lol
solid sub 4

lackluster "end" of the season. Didn't read it all the way though. He ran fast early, not much after his dropping out of the trials.
didn't answer my original question.

Jenny is saving herself for 5th Ave.

Now I realize you are trolling.
Faith manages to get the better of Sifan Hassan again despite Hassan's scything arms forcing her to run wider than she'd have like for the entire last lap.

I got your wording. I'll answer your question. Yes, he does get the money. This is a diamond league final.
He did run fast early in the season at the Shanghai diamond league with his 19.90 (PB). You're right, though, he didn't do much once he got to the trials where he pulled out due to injury and didn't race really until now.
Good end to a season where many thought he would have medaled in London.
Slow times in the womens 1500. Where's Muir?

Yes. He gets the money. He had a great year. He's a super star. He won his DL opener and title. Wow.
IF he'd run Worlds and been healthy, he probably would have won that as well. It might be best for him in the long term that he didn't win. Keeps him focused but it would have helped for his profile big time to win it. But it doesn't matter really as he's got a long term contract.
I want so badly for Christian Taylor and Will Claye to develop a more intense rivalry. It would invigorate such a following in the men's triple jump which has been pretty phenomenal the past year or so.
Can we take a second to appreciate Kiprop's 50/60 splits in the 800?
El Bakkali was visibly bummed to lose the money, but being a year younger than Conseslus and six younger than Jager, he'll have other chances.
What an underwhelming year.

Kipruto was hurdling the water steeples. Jager saw that and mentally decided to give it a shot. Jager needs to practice the over, and over, again. If Kipruto can do it, Jager can.
I think it was the best move even if he cant do it, youre trying to win it was the only way to have more momentum than the other guys. nothing to lose
I've always liked and respected Andy Bayer.... but did he slap Kipruto's hand away when he offered to pull him up off the track after the finish?
I'll say it again, but I think Jaeger just peaked too soon this year, and was on the downhill by the time of the World's. I think he peaked just before the US championships.
