The meet comes on international tv in 40 minutes. Those of us who forked out the $69.99 are already enthralled with the shot put action.
This meet should be fantastic!!

Great news
Not really pay 180 a month for dish and cant get that channel or streaming.
Can't find a single working link…
Really strong runs by the top four. McQuay had a great run while Gardiner and Merritt confirm what we already knew. Hopefully, this isn't McQuay getting in shape too early and he can really get back to being a major player at Worlds this year.
The Kenyan and Ethiopian expats really make the atmosphere in Doha better than any other Diamond League. You all saw the same thing at the XC worlds in Kampala and Mombasa. Unmatchable.
Sorry, order was
1. Steven Gardiner 44.60
2. Lashawn Merritt 44.78
3. Tony McQuay 44.92
4 Sibanda 45.05
5. Norwood 45.41
6. Santos 45.55
yeah, me too. can't find one that works...
I found one at

Not great, but better than nothing.
1500m is on. Rotich and Kivuva are Kiprop's pacemakers.
Michelle Carter takes the shot put.
Lined up for the 1500m now.

Very pleased so far, my only (slight) complaint/request would be for an easier way to toggle between the feeds. For example, when I'm watching a meet on Flotrack and there are multiple meets going at the same time, there is usually a drop-down menu below the video. A super minor complaint regardless.
Opening 300m in 40; 400m met in 55.37
Goal was 55
Is Gardiner the future of the event? Just 21.
Men are getting after it in 1500. 55 first 400 and 153.10.
800 to go in 1:38.
800 in at 1:53.10
Blankenship in the back.
Elijah Manangoi over Silas Kiplagat in 3:31. My boy Silas is BACK!
Gardiner might be the future. Really bright spot in the event and only improving.
Blankenship dead last now with 300 to go.
Manangoi and Kiplagat battle to line.
3:31.90 for Mananagoi and Kiplagat 2nd then Birgen.
That LetsRun preview post about the meet was a bunch of misleading BS. The sports app and website aren't showing it live. The only way you can watch this is by shelling out the dough for the NBC Sports Gold.
So this, is just blatantly wrong:
"In USA: US fans, we’ve got great news for you. We’ve learned you can watch this meet and all of the 2017 Diamond League season live on tv without shelling out $69.99 for the NBC Sports Gold Track & Field Pass. NBC has told us that all 14 meets will air live on TV in the U.S., either on NBC, NBCSN or Universal HD."
NBC Sports probably won't stream it till tonight and it most definitely isn't "live" by then
Manangoi wins. DFL for Blankenship

IN case you are wondering, Nike has outfitted all of their buys in the same GD uniforms yet again.
