Nikki Hiltz also impressive as well. Her (4:01), Osika (4:01), Schneider (4:01c), Purrier (4:02), Grace (4:02), Schlauctenhaufen (4:03), McGee (4:03), Johnson (4:03), Cranny (4:04) are making America incredibly deep in the 1500m. Then there's sub 4 runners Houlihan and Simpson of course. Add in Coburn (4:03), that's 12 under 4:05. Missing anyone?

Hiltz is toast. All that energy wasted.
Wasted energy? She got the last qualifying spot on time less than three tenths of a second ahead of Hull. A Hull who "wasted" just as much energy but will be WATCHING Hiltz in the final.
I love this stuff gets the loonies here, like you, all riled up.

Don't feed the (boring, unimaginative) troll.

I will say I had nothing against the brothers going into worlds. Since then Jakob is constantly running up on people from the inside and being physical without earning space to do so. Filip is dropping out in striking position, and then acting ridiculous in a heat...Not a good look for them.
+1, I have definitely lost some respect for them over the last few days.

Do you know why? How does that happen?
Tsegay will make the pace honest in the finale, I am pretty sure. But at least six, maybe eight women in that final can usually run a (sub) 60 final lap at 4:00 pace, so this will not be enough to win. Pace has to be faster or 57-58 final lap.
Jenny hasn't looked this strong since the World's in 2015. Uh oh, I hope she glues her shoes on for the final.
Rebecca Mehra (4:22 for third at Fifth Avenue Mile). She's improving massively. Should join the top seven or eight next year.

Both Australia filed protests with the desire only to have their runners qualify, and not dq any runners. Thats all I know.

The javelin can expose you a lot if you're not a true all rounder. Takes massive strength, explosiveness, and coordination. Not everyone has that.
If you don't grow up throwing a ball (baseball, football, cricket), throwing a javelin is not a natural thing to do. Back in the day, US high school and college track coaches would poach their jav throwers from the baseball team, pitchers especially.

Well Craig Masback just punted on the doping talk regarding Salazar..
After telling us what happened, Leigh Diffey said, ""Craig, it's big news."
Then Craig didn't talk about it other than to say she had to make the decision. I'd rather him just be honest and say, "Yes i'ts huge knews but when I'm not broadcasting I'm a Nike employee so I'm not the best person to be talking about it."
Someone Nike/NOP needs to show up in Adidas, and when asked, publicly denounce and quit the Nike/NOP clownshow.
Miller-Uibo can't pull off the win...
that was a hell of a run
Wow. That was crazy fast from Naser.
Who was actually the bookies' favorite in that race?
Third fastest runner ever. Only Koch and Kratochvílová have run faster.
Nike is on lockdown. Anyone Nike who bashes Alberto publicly will be looking for a new job.
Dodgy as hell
