We hope you are recovered from Worlds as an incredible Weltklasse meet takes place on Thursday. It features Sha'Carri Richardson, Shericka Jackson, Noah Lyles, a 1500 with everyone not named Jakob Ingebrigtsen and a 5000 with Lamecha Girma and Grant Fisher.

Jackson set a championship record of 21.41 (#2 all-time) while Lyles ran 19.52 to complete the 100/200 double.

Mu won her 800 heat in 1:59.59 while Sha'Carri Richardson led all 200m qualifiers in 22.16.

The 200 specialist Lyles is now a 100-meter world champion and halfway to becoming the first man to win the 100/200 at Worlds since Bolt in 2015.

Mu is in Budapest and it looks like she will run Worlds, while Fred Kerley and Noah Lyles are feeling confident ahead of the 100 meters.

A minor knee injury that won't require surgery is keeping one of the sport's biggest stars out of Worlds. And it comes just two days after she committed to racing Bol in the 400h in Brussels.

The Tracksmith-sponsored Charleston, who has no shoe sponsor, was running his first US final. Richardson overcame a slow start to win in 10.82.
