The subject says all I had to say.
Do Olympic champions get byes into the Worlds? I don't think so but want to make sure.
How seriously is he hurt?

He isnt scratched yet, if that means anything.

They do not get byes into Worlds. Only defending World Champions or the Diamond League winner
But didn't Aries win the DL last year and Richardson has the Worlds pass so USATF has to choose and neither is 100% based on what Pre showed of Jason.
Yes. Either, Merritt or Richardson get a bye to worlds, but not both.
USATF gets to decide if they both do not make top 2 at USATF.
From what I heard, USATF will take the reigning World Champion.
So let's say Richardson runs the first round but crashes and does not finish.
Then Merrit places 4th in the finals.
Richardson goes to Moscow and Merrit stays home (actually would be an alternate).
