I'm watching on Universal on DirecTV. That's probably the safest bet in America.
Women's 800 about to go live. Some coverage of Kynard and Barshim battling in the high jump. Crazy that Barshim hasn't won the event in Doha before.
Interesting to see what Dibaba runs. They highlighted her just over 2:00 split on her 1k and she ran sub 2:00 splits in 1500s previously, obviously, but this is a nasty lineup.
On the internatioanl feed, they said Dibaba wanted a faster pace for the rabbit but SEmenya vetoed it.
Dibaba wan'ted 55. Semenya 57. Dibaba is out hard.
In actuality the rabbit is 57.61 and Dibaba/Goule is only about 58 in the lead with Wambui right on her shoulder.
Semenya, Wambui, Sum ... Dibaba in 4th.

NBC Sports probably won't stream it till tonight and it most definitely isn't "live" by then
Didn't they coin "plausibly live" for prime-time broadcast of the Olympics a few cycles back? It's that again.
The Women's 8 is such a joke. 1:56?
Too easy for Semenya. This is really a bit of a farce.
Goule is mixing it up in there and that is awesome.
Semenya and Wambui just running away.
Letsrun didn't say it was live Look at the quote you posted
I hate watching the W 800 now. You basically have a couple people the equivalent of above average high schoolers dominating these races. The physical differences between them and the rest of the field is so stark it's embarrassing. One protected class is now going to ruin women's sports unless a better system is found. What a shame.
not a race

Sorry, Dibaba was only 5th.
Yeah Letsrun never said it was live online dude, the write-up mentioned that it would be live on TV which means you are most likely trying to watch it online. If you've ever streamed live sports online you do know that there's gotta be an extra fee, its an add-on anyway.
I'm at work so I can't check, but chances are if I were at home I could pull up this meet on one of those channels the guys listed. Online is a TOTALLY different ball game.

Dibaba looked really bad that final 100. Completely died. How do you run a 1:56.9 in a 1500m and then barely break two in an open 800 race? Seeing her run like this only further supports the idea that she was doping back in 2015. Really sad to see.
Elaine Thompson proves dominance over Dafne Schipers even though the commentators are clearly rooting for Schipers.
"In USA: US fans, we’ve got great news for you. We’ve learned you can watch this meet and all of the 2017 Diamond League season live on tv without shelling out $69.99 for the NBC Sports Gold Track & Field Pass. NBC has told us that all 14 meets will air live on TV in the U.S., either on NBC, NBCSN or Universal HD."
Will air "live" in the U.S. either on NBC, NBCSN, or Universal HD.....the only one it is possibly streaming live on besides Universal HD is the NBC Gold which you DO have to pay for...yet the preview post started out be saying you don't need to pay for anything to watch anything live. It is NOT live on NBC, their website or sports app. 0/10

I'm not going to defend that group on potential doping charges, but you could consider the fact that this is the first meet of the season vs the World Championship?
some seriously crap wind of - 2.3
this has wrecked clockings
this will be terrible for the TJ...
I see the confusion here. The preview post is rather misleading. Even if you are on the app on tv or on the website, it isn't live. You need to be literally tuned into the NBC sports channel/NBC, but even then I'm not really sure it is live since I don't have access to a tv at the moment. #nbcsucks
Is it not possible to get Eurosport online in the USA?
You can get a perfect picture here in Europe using a variety of android apps

While that is true, Dibaba's camp doesn't seem to interested in taking a "peak" approach to her training. She is usually just as good, if not better, at the beginning of the summer than the end. I think her race stills merits concern.
