Warholm's lead leg went around the hurdle while trail- knee smashes the plastic hurdle in half. Shown clearly on the NBC broadcast. If he is DQ'd then who would be next time qualifier? As much as I want Rai to beat Warholm in the finals I am a believer in staying in lanes and no shortcuts in races..
I couldn't really get a good view on this, but I thought his lead leg might have gone around the hurdle, too. Would be nice to see a replay with a good angle.
It was pretty close. Watch the second hurdle... replay just before the 5:00 minute mark.
World record holder Karsten Warholm looks to be in fine form once again, as he easily clinched a spot in Wednesday's 400m hurdles final with a good performan...

I think you are right. All day the site was fine and then it crashed. Maybe overloaded. Not sure. Anyway when I saw Sha'Carri won it made my day. Her 10.65 CR is great.
That was a thrilling race. SCR has overcome, or at least learned to control, her demons and her own worst impulses to become a world champion. It’s a great story and one I hope keeps getting better over the next few years.
Even in her celebration she was restrained.. she's put a lot of work into that
Exactly. SCR is putting a lot of work into herself, controlling her emotions, channeling her energies onto the track and not towards distractions. She’s done a remarkably successful job this year. I honestly don’t get why people would root against this version of SCR. She deserves a lot of credit. Everybody knew she was of enormous talent, but so many wrote her off because they were sure she would never get her sh-T together to be able demonstrate her talent when it mattered most. Well, she did. The final was all the more remarkable because after not doing awesome in the semis, she could have panicked and folded.
I don't care for US fans.. the sport doesn't need the US to stay alive.
So the world's largest economy isn't needed? Granted most Americans are watching boring Sportsball, but I think if track were marketed well, you could get a bigger fanbase. The Netflix show and sports betting might help.
Her reaction time was so slow in the semis that it was almost guaranteed that she would get a better start and a better time. I think the timing site is still down so cannot say for sure.
