HobbyJogger47, thanks. I had to go into the 4th channel to get the track. It's in Arabic but easy enough to figure out the names of the countries. The first channel was a soccer match and I think the third was a motor race.

Within 90 minutes, we're going to name champions in the m5k, wsteeple, w800 and men's 400 hurdles.
It's a shame that it will take 90 minutes to show these 4 races when they could reasonably be shown in almost half that time. 20 minutes for 5k, 15 minutes for steeple, 10 minutes for 800 and 10 minutes for 400h. Why is the hurdle race a half hour after the two minute 800 race?
You could also eat a fresh peach in about 25 seconds but more enjoyable to make it last a bit and savor each bite (event).
Does anyone know if this was actually real?

Every athlete gets an introduction and moving hurdles, blocks, and steeple barriers takes forever because they all have to be checked by officials before the race can start
Noah in 19.86, very nice

damn, thats some shade
American viewers, what do you think of SRR and Ato BOldon both being on there as commentators. It drives me nuts.
I'm used to sports being one play by play guy and one color guy.
What is SRR talking about? Lyles never had that race in control and he never backed off.
I didn't watch Lyles in round 1. He got beat by someone?
yea, may bad forgot to mention which channel, but its a reliable and good quality stream. no ad breaks unlike ncb sport.
The way Lyles finishes up these 200s, that 300 M World Record is likely his whenever he's ready. Advances easily. Roberts has been officially DQed. No appeal. Clobbered neighbors hurdle while winning his heat. Bummer.
Is that a bulletproof vest on Jakob?
I'm watching that Arab stream so I have no feedback for the Semi, but as for Round 1, Lyles ran a casual 200 and was beaten by Jereem Richards from T&T but it really wasn't a "loss". Lyles stopped running hard around 150 and was very relaxed in his post-race interview. I saw that on NBC.

MJ on BBC said Lyles wasn't working hard

Yes. I saw the error on the list live.
Pretty hilarious tweet.

He doesn't look to be ON ANOTHER LEVEL like he has for much of the year but I don't many people can run 19.79 and I think he can do that even off his game.
Last time two men broke WR in same race
2014 Berlin Marathon: Dennis Kimetto (2:02:57) and Emmanuel Mutai (2:03:13) both broke Wilson Kipsang’s WR (2:03:23)
Men’s Olympic track event: Liu Xiang (12.88) and Dominique Arnold (12.90) both the previous WR held by Xiang and Colin Jackson (12.91) in Lausanne on July 11, 2006
Bernard Barmasai (7:55.72) and Moses Kiptanui (7:56.16) both broke Wilson Boit Kipketer’s WR (7:59.08) in Cologne, Germany, on August 25, 1997.
Moses Kiptanui (12:55.30) and Daniel Komen (12:56.15) both broke Haile Gebrselassie’s 5,000 WR (12:56.96) on June 8, 1995, in Rome.
Yeah, Lyles got beat in Heats by Trinidad & Tobago guy. SRR with a good call saying DeGrasse would finish best & sure enough coming off the turn he pulled away easily.
Oduduru 20.84
Watch discus to be decided in the first throw..
Denny is a hoot. I'm going for him in discuss.
Since so many are relegated to live streams in foreign languages, I'll regurgitate anything of note the US commentators have to add. M 5K up next. 30 years since a 'non African' has won a World medal. Be glad those of you not able to access Olympic Channel, just had to suffer thru a 60 second catheter commercial. Now a Mesothelioma commercial. Lovely. More drama coming up from Chelimo? He looks like a lock for Top 5, but Top 3???
