Opening with triple jump qualifications
17.10 seems like a surprisingly tough mark for auto Q

Triki qualifies on first jump (17.26)
Javelin qualifications have started too, Chopra qualifies on first throw
Bro's called William Williams. 💀
What happened to the W 5000 heats? I'm working from a schedule I downloaded some time ago, and the 200m has been moved up by 1.5 hours...
Oops! Wrong day? We've got the 200m HEATS, not the 200m SEMIS.
it looks like the 5000 heats are tomorrow/day 6 per the present schedule
Battle wins her heat in 22.07. Ta Lou in second, the Greek Emmanouildou takes th last auto spot
MJW takes her heat in 22.24
Anyone know why theres no clock showing on the feed in the 200m heats? EDIT: seems to be back now
I know I'll get grief for saying it, but...Ashanti Moore??? Umm. There. I didn't say it.
On another matter, totally unrelated to the one above. Any report on the chromosome tests administered by WA? Any late scratches?
Women's Pole Vault update:
Seven have cleared 4.65, including three Americans (Moon, Morris, and Hannah Moll). Moser has also cleared. Amanda Moll has one miss.
Why so many "Mo"s in PV? Moon, Moser, Morris, Moll, Moll, Mondo?
Might be a tepid take, but Asher-Smith was a much better athlete 5-6 years ago before she started messing around her with running technique.
I can understand why she did it, but I'll be surprised if she ever runs under 22s again for the 200m.
And Amanda Moll joins the 4.65 group!
Interesting how the Moll twins share the same pole
Gregory lets go in the last 10m and drops from 3rd to 5th, another classic mistake
What are they teaching these athletes? Slowing down when you're not even first is especially dumb.
How do you train your whole life, travel all the way to Tokyo, and give up in the last half second of a 20 second race
What was Gregory thinking? No excuse for letting up in that situation.
Underwhelmed by the coverage here in Australia on the nine network. Matt Hill is the most uninformed commentator ever. Supposedly SBS is doing it as well
Gregory 4th on the bench after 2/6 heats, this mistake will cost him the semi

Must have thought it was last 3 to go through
