Watching these pictures of the lap of honour, not seeing much bitterness between the three medallists.
There were actual interpersonal issues with ETH. For Sha’Carri, it seemed it was more they were annoyed by someone who wasn’t relevant getting more attention than them. Once she started warranting it this year, there’s mutual respect.
The seeding from the womens Prelim to Semi made no sense. They did not appear to be from the prelim times, SB or PB. Sha'Carri had fastest prelim time so makes no sense that she would be in the middle heat. Any ideas?
Then, it's now an amazing story, but how on earth did she end up in Lane 9 in the final?
She had the 3rd fastest time from the Semis. Ok so she was a little q, and they planed to take 8 to the final. So she had fastest little q, so maybe she would get 7th priority? Lane 1? But no, then the other little q ends up in a tie so they take both of them for a 9 lane final. And she is the one in lane 9? Anyone?
I don't hate her in the slightest, all over seen of her is on the track so there is nothing to hate. Phenomenal performance but bizarre behaviour
She was in complete shock. You could tell this meant everything to her. Usually very confident and she looked nervous but focused. Went from thinking she may go home after 3rd in semis to leaving as World Champ.
It's so wild that it could be a movie script.
I picked Jackson (with SCR silver), but I was 100% rooting for SCR.

There’s a formula that takes the qualifiers and spits out semis. It’s not arbitrary though it has the 1 seed face 2 Heat winners which is dumb. Now I don’t know why they don’t sort the time Qs by time.
