Aman has been DQ'ed!
Aman has been DQ'ed!
Aman now listed as DQ. Anybody know what happened?
He pushed the Dutch runner, trying to go past him on the inside.
NO AMAN - DQ
NO AMOS - weak performance
WHAT
my new predictions
Rudisha
Tuka
Kszcot
Rowbury with last auto qualifying spot?
Alfred Kipketer is going to run the first 400m in sub 49.
In other news, womens 1500m semi heat 1 was kind of frustrating to watch. Went through 800 in 2:25, and Rowbury sure took her time in that one. I believe she came 5th in her heat, with 6th closing quickly on her and only losing by a slight margin. Seems to me that the energy preservation almost cost her (Rowbury).
Paula Radcliffe looks to be badly shaken by recent events
I expect she will look to avoid dope talk going forward or adopt a different tack

Mohamen Aman is THE best 800m racer in the world. He'll get through on time. Nobody else would have.
He's out for his idiotic bitch move on the backstretch of his semi.
At least Aman's agent was honest about his age at the last WC's, stating to one and all Aman was "...at least 24." This age fraud stuff is hilarious.
Go Rudisha. Go Tuka.

Ridiculous. The Dutch guy was tying up, falling back and impeding him. He should counter-protest quick.
Can't wait to see Asafa Powell choke in another major final.
After Amos and Aman out, somewhere, Nick Symmonds knows that he would have win another world medal.
I was a little shocked myself, and of course I am only listening to the broadcast and they didn't mention Shannon (Just now did as I started typing this) so I was like...Gallgher got through and not Rowbury?!
I am interested to see how this second heat runs with Dibaba in it. She's such a machine that 4:02 isn't even difficult for her. The good news is, JS can take whatever place gets her a time qualifier to preserve energy, but she may be pulled along if the field moves off Dibaba at all....
@AlysiaMontano
Impossible to be excited for the men's 100m. #Beijing2015 . Three convicted drug cheats... Three... Give me a break.
Muir the Scot looking good! Good luck to her in the final, its going to be a tough race.
and then Dibaba decides to just rip it halfway through the second one. Anyone get her last 800? First 800 was 2:20 and finished with 4:06
If you're only listening to audio cause you need a stream, use the 2nd stream here:

100m coming up. Was a bit curious about Dibaba's 2nd heat in that 1500m, as she was hanging out in back for a while, but then she moved nicely with 500m to go and did fine. Jenny 4th or 5th in the heat, also goes through as expected.

Gay, Gatlin, Rodgers, Powell, that's at least four.

Yeah, Alysia forgot Mike Rodgers.
Last minute predictions anyone?
