Even Tori Bowie (WL) isn't competing in the 200m.

It looks like some kind of virus is tearing through the field. Half of the favorites are pulling out of their track events. :/

Špotakova, all those years at the top, yet only one world gold medal to show for it—and that was from Chicago

Bravo!!!

Eurosport is switching over to the women's 200m qualifiers now.

🤣🤣

Exactly that.

Man, I wonder if we can pull off three shot put medals.

Is there any chance he could actually secure a medal?🙂

Ryan Crouser has been consistently clearing over 22 meters this year, so he's definitely the biggest threat out there.

Sarah moves into the finals as the 8th contestant🙂

frozenrider112 said:How many series do they throw in during the finals, 3 or 6?

The top 8 players move on after 3 rounds, then they play another 3.

It's a little distracting when he struggles with his R's, but honestly, they are much better than what you get on CNN.

Kolak didn't hit the qualifying standard, but she should still cruise into the finals without any issues...
