That's why I said she finished second.
Its just a bit unusual for your feet to be 6th over the line and your torso second.

Man, I felt bad for Bol there. She hit her head pretty squarely on the fall. Really hope she'll still be able to duke it out with Miller-Uibo in the final.
Also felt bad for Camille Laus. I was glad to see that Jessie Knight's DQ was overruled because I didn't think she did anything wrong. But for a while there Laus was in the semis, and that would have been great to see.

Absolutely crazy scene in the third semi of the women's 60m; the officials DQed the wrong runner for a false start and the crowd shamed them into changing it to the correct runner. (There's an argument that maybe nobody should have been DQed; the Spanish pentathlete Conte packed up her gear and moved through the runners' eyeline between Set and Go.)

Interesting to see the officials' display for the false starts. I don't think I've seen red and green lights replacing folks with flags for the jumps before either.

GDS and Purrier out front with Chebet! Monson is sitting around 6th at about 400m in. Hailu towards the back. There are so many women on the track that it's hard to even identify where everyone is!
