What a mess from Warholm.
Buddy isn’t the goat. This is the second time he is crashing and burning in a final.
It won't happen but in my view Rai should get it. Upgrade the Nigerian to a bronze, so 2 bronzes. I know its bending the rules but I don't think dos Santos can really be unhappy with that. He doesn't deserve the gold was miles behind.
i don't think they should have made the dq call, from video evidence to me showing it didn't affect the other guy's stride. but they made the call, and it's extremely justifiable, so can't put that genie back in the bottle.
Your right 2 I forgot that unless Lyles does something here in the 200 idk what else we even have a chance in for gold.
Warholm was running low 46 pace and just didn't have it in the legs at the end
I understand the rule but don't like that it can get a winner DQ'd for someone who finished well behind them. Its not like Cole Hocker in the 1500m where he consciously made a decision to impede an athlete to get an advantage, Benjamin made an mistake that ended up unknowingly affecting another athlete slightly. If anything it came down to the hurdle placement
now they are saying DQ was reversed!!
this isn't over

Yeah, was it in Doha where they did that a lot? I thought it was ridiculous, but here it could actually make sense.

Hocker's just not handsome enough to access pretty privilege.
Getting downvoted. Your all wrong. The rules serve the spirit of the sport not the other way round. You all need to get jobs checking numberplates ya sticklers. If one consults one hearts, including dos santos, they'll agree.
With the nearly identical uniforms from US and UK, it looks like five from the same nation in this heat

There's a chance in the 5k with Hocker, Fisher, and Young where any of them could win but there really is no guessing on how that will go because there is world where multiple americans medal and there's a world where none of them place top 5.
With the way things have been going i am not confident that the 5,000 will go well in our favor after the disaster weve had so far.
How bloody awful are the nike kits this championships in general? Absolutely awful. I hope Nike continues to lose national team contracts in favour of brands making kits that don't look like garbage.
How does the us have 4 in the heptathlon? What gives someone a wild card other than budapest
Fisher looks like crap. but some of these guys will be toast from their heat race. others will navigate it without issue. Should be fun
