Who wins the 400? Can James or Merritt beat Niekerk?
Who wins the 400? Can James or Merritt beat Niekerk?
I give rowbury a (slim) shot at a medal, Simpson can hang, but can't kick.
For the record, I'm going for:
Dibaba
Hassan
Muir

Or she's not stupid enough to throw down to win a semi final? Normally I hate the NBC announcers but Masback was right on the money here. Jenny ran a perfect semi. Dibaba and Hassan blasted it totally unnecessarily, though I doubt it will hurt them.
So if it doesn't hurt them, what's the problem? You don't think establishign a psychological advantage over your opponent helps any?

Might have missed it, but Keturah Orji smashed her own American Record in the Triple Jump with 14.71m!
48' 3 3/4" for those of you who prefer imperial measurements.
Van Niekerk's coach likes to touch her athletes a lot it seems. Did she slpa him on the butt right at the end of that last shot? Maybe the US needs to add some grandmothers to their coaching staff to improve their fortunes in the 400.
In other news - Kenturah Orji is 2 cm out pulling off what Rojo said was impossible and sits in 4th place in the TJ. I didn't see the wind but if legal I think 14.71 is an AR (breaking her own) by a pretty nice amount.
Very impressive from the youngster.

Muir left the final at the semi-final. She is done.
Van Nierkerk is hot. Looking good!
The bulges in the 400 are impressive

I'm sorry, but van niekerk in lane 8 is utter BS how in the world are they doing these lane draws, should be a great race, but since van Niekerk has a bad lane I think james has this,
