Clean runners dropping like flies.
Martinez and Prandini both OUT.
Praying Buchel gets to the final on time.

This is an abomination. Hopefully Coe will step up doping controls before Rio.
Molly Ludlow out of the 800 in heat 2.
The top 3 really brought it in heat 2 as Shelayna Oskan-Clarke, Renelle Lamote, and Olha Lyakhova all PRd to take the top 3 spots.
Oskan-Clarke was the most impressive as she had never broken 2:00 until that race. What a time to do it. Her previous best was only 2:00.60. Crazy run.

Doping nations still dominating the womens 800/1500
They bust one doper and another new one steps in to replace her
looks like two ukrainians in the final? Madonna mia.
Down to final round of Triple Jump. Christian Taylor leads Pichardo with Craddock in 3rd.
Darn...took a flier on Semenya returning to form and grabbing a medal.
Is Hassan out?
Hassan and Büchel out
Hassan and Buechel out
W800 sf3 was a massacre. Sharp like Meadows went off way too fast trying to keep up with Sum and predictably blew up. Cram managed to get it all wrong by starting saying she should go with the pace then slagging her off afterwards for... going with the pace. But seriously 27.31 at 200??
We're assuming Bishop is clean 'cause she's Canadian and pretty?
Wow. Melissa Bishop with a 2+ second PR and national record to win that one and Eunice Sum was only 3rd but they all had the 2-3-4 times in the world this year and it was a 3 way blanket finish.
She was only 2nd in the Atlanta Track Classic before Worlds.

Melissa Bishop is in the final. Good for her.
Nelson Evora stole Omar Craddock the Bronze medal in his last jump.

how bad is that
How would you say it? Many Anglos assume it's "shippers" but it's much closer to "skippers."
It's Dutch, not Gernan.
3 under 1:58 in the semi! DAYUM!
Geez, even the Canadians are working us over. Nice job M.B.
Christian Taylor kills the competition with a 18.21m gold winning jump!!!
Nice jump!
1:58.50 in the semis isn't enough to go to the finals. Crazy.
