so does tamberi get the gold because he did 2.36 in less attempts?

First tiebreaker - misses at the last height both cleared.

Second tiebreaker - total misses in the entire competition

re: Tron

another thing to point out is that gold and silver ran 400 meters on the last lap. how much do we think hassan ran? An extra 3 or more? She ran a really Fast last lap there. I don't think she is too far off of her 19 and 21 shape. Just not running smart.

I dont know too much about the SC setup. I just saw them add the first hurdle as the runners completed the first lap. Normal?

And by first hurdle of the race I mean the one on the backstretch before finish line.

Bizarre run from Hassan. Kipyegon's win was a foregone conclusion but running from the back like that meant she never had a chance, she was about 3-4 meters back at the bell and never narrowed the gap. Awful tactics.

Seemed like Hassan did not respect the rest of the field sufficiently. Of course, she did pass everybody but Welteji, so she was not that far off. If she hadn't run the 10, she likely would have had the silver here even with the bad tactics. Faith was smart tonight, doing enough to win easily, but not leaving it all out there and reserving herself for the 5000.

re: you reap what you sow

If still tied after this and it concerns first place, there is a jump-off.

I'm not saying she would have won it, but holy crap, she didn't even give herself the chance. There is no universe in which hitting the bell nearly a second behind Kipyegon is the best tactic.
Guys. Guys. Guys.
HASSAN WAS NOT RUNNING FOR GOLD.

So what's she running for then, her fitness? A tempo before the 5000?

re: west coast watcher

Hassan had to know that Faith can run a sub 2 final 800 which she did, so spotting a second is way too much.

The first 250m or so has no barrier.

She didn't seem to be running for silver either...

So Faith smashes it and runs 5 seconds slower than her rabbited DL time trial...now can people stop deluding themselves into thinking the men will run sub-3:29 tomorrow after two races in their legs?
Cheruyiot did it so Jakob can. But around 3:30 is more likely

Out of genuine curiosity, do folks like Hassan as an athlete? She seems to divide opinions.
Yes she keeps things interesting and is an amazing athlete not afraid of a challenge

I was at the London Diamond League a few weeks ago. Hassan got as a big a cheer as people like Dina Asher Smith. That London Marathon win has resonated over here. She's really popular

Correct, there is no water jump or home stretch barrier in the first half-lap.
