Hassan broke the 10k WR and then outsprinted Kipyegon in a 3:53 1500m 2-3 days later. She could be limping and I'd still think she'd win.
Nope - Kipyegon outsprinted Hassan after hanging on her shoulder most of the race.
Different race.
That Japanese girl is hanging on well.

Well... either the packed slowed down or the Americans surged, because they closed that gap fast.

Tsegay is no slouch over 1500m
Download the NBC Sports app. I've been watching track live since it started. No jumping back and forth between different sports, although they will cut away from races to quickly cover the field events.

Well, the Americans look like crap :/

Pretty sure Cranny DNFed. Thought I saw her standing out of focus in the background.
The pack did slow down, pretty obviously.
They may as well have skipped the race and given her the gold
They made it easy
Hasan. 1down, 2 more to go
