LRC Update on Devon Allen's Disqualification from Agent Paul Doyle: "It's been stolen from the fans. It's been stolen from Devon and that's unfortunate."
A controversial start deprived Devon Allen of possibly the greatest opportunity in his athletic career. What is World Athletics doing to rectify the situation? What about the possible make-up race? Devon Allen's agent gives us an update. "Not to take anything at all away from Grant Holloway, he's an amazing athlete, but as competitive as Devon is, having already run 12.84 this year, running in front of the whole crowd, running for his dad, there's no way he loses that race and we'll never get to see it."

The Independent:
“It’s something that I’ve had to work hard for. I never feel as though this sport is all fun and games. I’ve sacrificed a lot for it so for me, the whole of my early 20s sacrificing doing stuff with friends, more of the social life I’d crave, is all worth it for moments like this. When I’m retired, fat and enjoying life a little bit I can look back on this and feel very proud that I did everything I could to get to this point. It’s all worth it.”
Sunday afternoon’s coverage of the championships on NBC averaged 2.235 million TV-only viewers.
