Official Day 4 Worlds Discussion Thread - Men's Steeple Final, Women's 1500 final and more (7 pm ET instant reaction show)

Classic George. Wish he was a little more in the mix earlier, he would've medaled for sure.

Watching the events I've noticed the rising talent has improved so much that the Semi's for qualifying have become more difficult. The favorites cannot take it too easy because they're now more at risk for being eliminated. More than ever.

Um, silver?

But still, if that’s the case she ran a tactically poor race for silver!

SMH....only weak POS have excuses for why they lost. He lost....period. Dead Last! Doesn't matter if by an inch or a mile. So what he pulled up....whose fault is that? His. He lost.

As for sprinting I have won tons of races and coached folks at every level included the World Championships.

Nobody wants to hear an excuse, especially when they are awarding titles.

So according to "you" falling on your face isn't getting your butt kicked? Check the results.

We all know Gardner is a former world an Olympic champion, but he got his ass kicked today.

The initial comment was a made up BS stat. He didn't finish, so he took dead f'ing last place. Period.

I just can't really get into steeple, but that is impressive. El B just destroyed the world record holder who is also a 3:29 1500 man.

Jakob would still eat his lunch with just 3 months training.

Oops, i just realized they were for SC.

Tamberi doesn't have personality according to Lyles/Sha'Carri fanboys on this site. 🤡

Man, what an absolute disaster the WA website is - I mean come on guys.

Actually he beat everyone that didn't make it out of the prelims

While at least he did hit the front, he needed to push a lap earlier or two probably. Once El bakkali survived the penultimate 200 it was over. It was still a strong move as you saw how much it destroyed the rest of the field.

Brits love Salazar. Farah is nothing without him.

Great run for Desgagnes! PB for 8th, four seconds off the bronze 🇨🇦

I feel like I'm living in some sort of parallel universe here... why the eff not put yourself on Kipyegon's shoulder and give yourself a shot at gold? She was not going to blow up at the pace they were running, that's for sure.

Did George get 5th?

It was kind of funny that PR said that Hassan was going to do something utterly completely different (!).

Anyone get a Beamish split the last lap. I would be kicking myself for not being farther up at the bell

It's been down more than it's actually been working the number of times I've tried to visit it.

It's obvious, but since you are either playing dumb or just dumb...

Kipyegon is many, many seconds faster than Hassan this year. 3:49 to 3:56. That is another planet. Do you understand how far apart they are?

Meanwhile, among all remaining competitors Hassan is very competitive. As we just saw.

What is she going to do to "take the race to Kipyegon?" Nothing, except to serve as a free pacer to all of the other also-rans.

She can (and did) race for a medal. Picture the race without Kipyegon in it, any any sensible person will agree Hassan ran very well.

Get it?

To say Hassan should have aimed to beat Kipyegon is like saying Nick Symmonds was too far behind David Rudisha at the bell in London 2012. Simply clueless take.

Jesus Christ, 10min since the SC final and the entire f-ing event website is 'Error 404"'ing.

Honestly it's these little things which really let the sport down - they don't even have live ticker stuff for field events etc. Pathetic
