Not top 2 in his heat. Barely runs sub 1:47. Will he once again fail to advance from the first round?
He was in heat 1. How could he predict that 1:46.97 would end up being fast enough? He couldn't. He was only the second fastest to qualify on time. In his mind, after the race, he thought that he would not make it through. He did not come third in his heat on purpose.

I could have easily predicted that

Why is it unfortunate that one of our fastest 800 guys moved on?

Unfortunately he'll make it on time
Exactly, 800 rounds are a sh*t show. The only thing that matters is he moved on, end of story.

How soon you sorry excuses for track fans forget the first round of Rio when Murphy didn't automatically qualify for the semis and had to get in on time. It wasn't even a year ago.
This isn't the Olympics, bruh. It's the first round of USAs where he is a second and a half faster than everyone else in his heat: theoretically.

The same scenario applies, "bruh" - you have to move on. Clayton nearly didn't and then ended up with bronze. Margins are small in the 800m and a lot can happen. Don't be a n00b.
