nothing will dampen the atmosphere here at the I double AF World Athletics Championships we have had an absolutely superb five-day so far and some great action to come here on the 6th evening pretty wet out there on sections of the track but the tube ends will be dry and that will be relevant very soon because Isaac Makwana of Botswana as we look at the crowd they're going through their warm-ups with the Hedgehog mascot getting everybody through a few dance moves isaac Makwana is out on the track on his own having served his official quarantine period he's being given an opportunity to run a heat at the 200 on his own it will be a Time Trial and he'll have to run as fast as if not quicker than twenty point five three if he does that he'll be advanced through to the semi-finals later on this evening so just before we see him run his solo 200 here's a full lineup of what's in store this evening and heaps of the 3,000 steeplechase for the women qualification in the long jump in the Hannah Mo Farah back out on the track in the heats of the men's 5 the women's shock book final some really good opportunities there in the absence of Valerie Adams qualification in the men's hammer if it happens we're hearing rumors it may be postponed until tomorrow because of the weather the three men's 200 semies and then the men's 400-meter hurdles final Karen Clement going for an unprecedented third world title but it would be his first since Berlin in 2009 and the women's 400 meter final will things off just before 10 o'clock Allyson Felix the defending world champion Sean a Milla weebo he is the reigning Olympic champion they were separated by just a few hundredths last year in Rio and it could be very close again this time round and there is Isaac Makwana so the reason he has to run twenty point five three that is the qualifying time of the slowest fastest loser through to the semi-finals and he would be added to one of the three cities coming up in around about two hours 15 minutes lots of rain lots of cloud and it is cold this evening here in the stadium being difficult for all the athletes getting ready for the action tonight and maybe the conditions will favor the european-based runners who are more used to training and competing in the driving wind and rain alongside me in the commentary box this evening Catherine Mary and Steve over there wrapped up and warm and ready for the evenings drama to unfold well as you say Rob it is wet in the warmup error isn't it see some of the female long jumpers their qualification here tonight and as you mentioned continuing in the sprint events it really isn't good conditions but as an athlete Steve view well we just you have to get on with it right it stops for no man it obviously makes things a little bit harder as Rob mentioned potentially delaying some of the throwing events I think in the Thrive avenge is essential they have dry circles the to throw off on it's very dangerous otherwise for most of the other athletes yes it's it's raining well it's just Britain this is summer isn't it really and I think that they just got it used to it it's unilaterally across the board we all have to compete in it it is a bit more difficult I'm thinking events like the 5k which we are seeing tonight with Mo Farah obviously going for the double because there you've got the rain coming off the track onto your legs you know grading and I suppose a little bit of cold there he is actually motor look he's got a wetsuit on he's got a big hat and he's putting a change of clothing to because if you warm up after warming up you wanna put something else warm on AAPIs so yeah it's gonna be a problem but it's for everybody you know that's the thing but in the 5000 I think perhaps rather than the Sprint's of those citizens me 5,000 you got rain coming off of everybody in front of you you know completely soaked so you get colder quickly and then all sorts of problems up if we go quickly facto to this individual trying to meters fight for quality okay I'd like to bring Catherine in as we go through this time trial twenty point five three bearing in mind how fast he has run already this year not just over the fall but over the two on his own no problem you think not nineteen point seven seven seconds the world leader ahead of wave van Niekerk it's just what kind of shape does the issues that he has had the corsets within his cantos top 20 second run up but this is a different scenario isn't it we have seen it before he made the championship she has solo run which we've had run offs for qualification times now this is a big moment for Isaac the Koala is that these issues the last couple of days and they always got one chance to get back in and continue he's quest over the 200 meters so just to reiterate it's twenty point five three all faster just a reminder it's that time because that was the time set by the slowest of the fastest losers through to tonight's three semi-finalists no redrawn lanes the Koala we assume will be added to lane one in one of the three semi finals but only if he matches for Betty's twenty point five and quite frankly we were disappointed we didn't seem in the finding of the fall last night who a former neutrals point of view that the fastest man in the world this year is here and does have an opportunity if fully fit to show us just how good he is and maybe Navy if he comes through this challenge and the semies tonight maybe challenge wait van niekirk who was miles clear in that very impressive 400 win late last night so this very special one-off Heat Isaac the Koala against the clock giving him an absolutely massive reception now watch the truck here as he comes round because where he's running there is totally dry but it will get very down the home straight 20.5 three he's absolutely motoring here 2020 yes still got room for the threat sucks what a showman and I think he was proving a point to everyone there not just himself Isaac Makwana is in the semi-finals later tonight faster than all but six of the other qualifiers and they didn't run in the rain and they didn't run on their own Makua is back and he's healthy it was good wasn't it it's so strange isn't it as track of the film fans to watch just one man but that was wonderful to watch you could tell he was flying even though there were no other competitors in the race his turnover his cadence he ran a very tidy Bend of the transition into the straight verse we look at that so so so efficient we're now how good he is stop 44 seconds this year over 400 stop 20 seconds he did it in the same afternoon in about a three hour span his speed endurance is helped him out there because with the issues that he's had and as you mentioned rock not too many run faster than that so he'll slot into those semi finals nobody as Rob said will be removed his eyes up from a koala that will be added and we'll see him come back later and that'll be the question isn't it if he has had problems it's now can he come back in a few hours time and repeat that and potentially go faster but here on that great double did it at 400 200 so yeah I think he's capable doing it the interesting thing though he looked really determined like a man that's really been that hard against it in getting to this stage where we can get the qualifying and I think you had a point to prove and how tough will it be Catherine because we know whichever of the semi he's in he's gonna be in lane one will that give him a problem because he won't be used to running in lane one because when he goes to Diamond leagues he gets one of the favored lanes not with the form that he was in and potentially he still is in look at that he's butting out one or two three press ups there that was impressive that's what we want to see going forward to the semi-finals the best guys in the world just proving his fitness even more there with knocking out five or six probably about three or four more than Rob Walker next to me a lot better technique well I'm glad it's a 200 imagines they do it mo farah have to run a 5k on his own before he run the heat source qualified again for the final but they are there's the overall 200 meters men yes and we see the little queue that's the most relevant name third from the bottom Isaac Makwana the fastest man in the world this year will join all the rest in the semi finals a we are local time now quarter to seven in the evening and those 200 semies coming up at five to nine so if you're planning on going out and missing a little bit of our action please do make sure you come back and join us for the men's Emmys and we will round off with the men's for hurdles and the women's 400 meters and look at this an interested observer waiting for the medal presentation of the main sport generous there yeah I think Wayne said it yesterday didn't he he wants the best athletes to race against them you'll relish that semi-final later good stuff okay so these the quality showed is over now we have an opportunity to salute some of the great performances yesterday evening what a race in the men's 3,000 meter steeplechase [Music] Councilmember will make the presentation and what a great bronze medal for the very first time an American man will stand on the world championship podium silver in the Olympics last year that's so far for ever Diego he's come up back to the world champs brilliant run took it on with Walter go realizing that he had to drop some of the fast finishing Kenyans including by the way Ezekiel Kemboi the four-time champion who announced his retirement immediately after the end of the race he chopped across the line in eleventh great bronze medal for Yeager at last putting an American on the podium in this event what a season it's turned out to be a pursuit beyond pelvic rd he was in tears after the race followed the winner all the way home got his lifetime vest down from something like 8:14 to 8:05 this season the performance of his life and he's been rewarded with the World Championships silver medal looks like he still can't believe it and the champion completing his collection and his fiery eyes and celebration as he crossed the line showed you exactly what this means to consensus - Crito your new champion world junior champion Olympic champion and after two successive silvers behind the zekiel Kemboi this time it was consensus de frutos turn to complete the global collection he is quite some talent and for a man as young as he is he may well be around at the top for many more years to come consensus Kipruto now here's the Kenyan national anthem [Music] nearly was equated caputo because earlier in the season he had clocked out uncharacteristic he had one of the Diamond League races with ankle problems and I thought I saw him limping on his lap of Honor last night so he clearly came here still pleading that ankle not 100% he delivered a fine fine performance Caputo Elva Carly and Jager three worthy medalists still absolutely hammering with rain here this evening possibly the men's hammer may be postponed but we will keep you updated on that one hopefully the officials will be drying out the circle at the moment touch wood and a hammer fans out there it does look like that will be happening this evening so the 3000 meter steeplechase was a fantastic race and so to steve-o met the hammer boys they're just going through their pre-qualifying preparations and so too last night if the three steeple was good the men's eight was absolutely brilliant well one of the most exciting races perhaps in the 800 meters that I've seen for some time really it had everything and it didn't really settle itself out as far as the medals was concerned until the last 20 meters or so [Music] Wow nothing just coming out now into the rain I'm afraid for their medal ceremonies but I don't think they'll be too disappointed again [Music] I'm selling my husband this is a gang buy donuts and select yes councilmember [Music] in third place the young talented Kenya Diego bet who won the World Junior Championships coming now to third place in the world Senior Championships [Applause] he did the best he could run really hard and in the end came away with that broad spelling [Music] and in silver medal we expect is this man to finish fast but my word it was an exceptional finish 30 minutes second last time in the world champs again picks up the silver medal he came from nowhere [Music] they are two silvers for this banner is Jeb chips don't ask for more than that but perhaps but the real the real man that dominated the race took it by the scruff of the neck and then really ran away from everybody else boss of crops love's in the so so excited he actually said afters I'm not the best athlete in the world but I ran the race that mattered tonight and it certainly did really did absolutely superb and he was fourth Olympics world champs but I think he was more surprised than anybody else at the end that he actually won the gold [Music] I didn't hear anyone today that he's so teasing that performance and last lifeguards had a great night with his band with an adult and run exactly getting the pods built in the table Optima well of really said that he inspired him to keep going and trying hard in that Carlebach Frances first doorbell of these championships [Music] she'll wanna have to keep watching those anymore it's what might have gone I'm afraid that would that was changed some time ago but the actual gesture still dissolves [Music] great race really was fast entertaining front yet again a massive crowd last night he was also saying Steve but I didn't have a race plan he just went in and went with it when the Frenchman as you say absolutely delighted and the crowd even though it's pouring down with rain he's tacking themselves in for the 6th night of action at the 'iw Ward athletic championships so the medal ceremony for the men's 400 meters the question was could the world-record holder from South Africa wave van niekirk defend his title and he did in some style the wonderful run an outstanding finish from Haroon of Qatar but it's the man that comes back to this track later on that just before nine o'clock UK time for the semi-finals in 200 meters picked up the gold medal once again another cardi my double layered councilmember the 2t minute landing the three medals over for the men's 400-meter finalists Delana Haroon of katar finish like an absolute train forty eight point four eight seconds a season's best he was lying on last at about a hundred meters to go was the Qatari rewarded with a World Championship bronze medal [Music] a silver medal well it went to the Bahamas and Stephen Gardner 44.4 one seconds lowered his own national record in the semi-final to 43 89 he couldn't reproduce that time but he did reduce a great run to pick up the silver medal behind the South African the Boy Wonder from the Bahamas silver medalist and the one lap distance but the champion of the world he defended his title 43 98 way Bernie Kerik he said it was cold last night we finally won at 10 to 10 UK time here and the top bend put himself in a wonderful position in the South African picked up the gold medal once again the response of his questions to do the double dumbest is Michael Johnson in 2005 Taiwan done for the South Africa [Music] the champion is go away compose himself the semi-finals later the part one is done to the South African it really was a good race 400 meters and it's turning out to be a good championship for the South Africans Caffrey man younger taking the gold I think some are may have got the bronze in that one caster Semenya got a bronze in the 15 and will be favourite in the 800 meters and van Niekerk can come back as you said and have a crack at the 400 200 doubles so it really has been a great few days for the rainbow nation here in London not too much time for bad nico to celebrate it's got to go and get himself ready for the 270's coming up in a couple of hours time while impressive Katherine not just from the South Africans who are currently in third Kenyans going well and you're not so impressive about the Americans I think it's the range of events in which they're winning medals women's marathon men's 3,000 steeplechase it's not just the Sprint's where they've you know turned that rivalry in their direction against the Jamaicans for now that they're really starting to produce medals across the board Britain Northern Ireland no power over that 10,000 meters but what an impressive range the number of nations that are winning medals here with the world championships and a lot more to be handed out of course including here tonight as I've mentioned in the winnings shocked at final and the 400 meter hurdles for men and the 400 meters for the women later so the first field event final of the evening will be the shotput that's coming up in around about an hour's time before that we have qualifying for the women's long jump and the men's hammer and there's qualification group a in the women's long jump down the backstraight here at the london stadium Tiana Barse a letter and the pre-event favorites from America she'll be in this qualification group a Ivana span of itch as well so two groups go to run along alongside each other on the back straight and there's qualification group B Britney Reece from the USA world champion on many occasions kobbari of Nigeria as well around here in the sprint events earlier in this championships so the women's long jump qualifying qualification distance required to go straight through to the women's long job final will be six meters and 70 on Friday for championship season two athletes have gone over seven meters Brittany Reese and tiana bar to letter it's due to be a very competitive event so very shortly the qualification routes will get underway all chasing the distance of six meters and 17th which many athletes probably this year yes we will keep you posted on that qualification in the long jump and women shot the final starting there and about an hour and 20 minutes of time so we've had our first solo run on the track from Isaac McAuliffe now we have the first round of the women's 3,000 meter steeplechase three heats pretty brutal qualification actually route chebet the world record holder and chairs for well she's just been absolutely incredible and she's still a teenager has the African record and the world junior record it's fairly tough this three heats first three from each +6 fastest losses so this is an event where we really do need to watch the clock and it will be interesting to see if the slower finishing athletes decide to really pull the pace on here's the lineup for the first of the three heats Jeb komoi is the defending champion really good quality here get a net there of ethiopia world junior silver medalist last year Sapir is safer of ethiopia got a silver medal here in london five years ago and a bronze in moscow and purity Carew II of Kenya is the Commonwealth champion she also starts in this one so there is kuru he looks a little bit cold it is very very fresh this evening we're pretty cold up here in the commentary box hopefully the athletes will warm up a little bit once they get going there's a safer just mr. medal in Beijing last year down walk next to her it's Lenny waves of Great Britain getting a great reception second at two successive editions of the European Team Championships they was getting it quickly very fast athlete as well still 9:25 this season and there is high beam jet komoi second fastest in the world this year the defending champion the Olympic silver medalist 12 months ago so only the first three here as I said you've been interesting to see whether they decide to get going here or whether the fancied athletes think they can leave all the work to the last 100 meters the first of three heats in the women's 3,000 meter steeplechase begins and it is the Commonwealth champion purity Kurumi on the outside we live in check inside the defending champion the Olympic silver medalist the two Kenyans going straight to the front deciding to dominate the early pace and and set the early rhythm are setting a rhythm it's not very fast actually well but maybe they're being a bit cautious here the track is still wet you can see they've just come around it's a strange situation about half the track is wet half the track is dry but I suppose to the steeplechase is that pretty too much of a problem cuz they're obviously got the water jug to contend with as well but you can see there that the water is coming up onto the legs of the athletes and no one really likes that too much it does pull you down so they're sprinting out a little bit more than perhaps they would usually do in the early stages of this race well I mean spreading out I mean literally coming out in two lanes two and three to stop they would have been coming out to purely there is looking very comfortable just in the balloon because they're controlling the rhythm but the rhythm hasn't said not fast Rob no it's free pedestrian by Jeff Comorian Kurumi standards we should mention who is up there right on the inside just shaded there by JEP Kamui is krauser okay so felicitous krauser really good runner from Germany got the bronze last two years ago rather in Beijing and was six last year in Rio she's on the inside she's quite a fast athlete still no move yet from the Ethiopian as safer he's running towards the left hand side there all the women safely through that water jug that this is absolutely pedestrian yeah this is this is living dangerously really yeah they've got to start pushing it on maybe the Kenyans now start realizing it quickly America is in the middle of that picture she's tucked in in about to what fourth place at the moment yes I think someone nail must start thinking that they're going to start pushing it on it is only three to qualify you can't leave it to the last part of the race because you're leaning it down to those that have got the finish in their legs but they're not probably strong but they're their fastest in the race and I did notice Steve about 150 meters or so ago getting it of Bahrain its Patriot Ethiopian just gave purity curry a shove in the back as they found themselves running far too close together heading towards one of the barriers and that was the point at which the Commonwealth champion decided to go to the front dining or walk I'm just moving through there but she's been pushed back a little bit now it is a lot of pushing and shoving going as you say they're keeping themselves as I said spread out into lane three sometimes to avoid problems on the track but it is still slow they really are running slow in other words the weather they're cold or whether they just think they can out sprint everybody they've just got to be careful what if the first two heats a slow Steve really slow and tactical surely if you were one of the athletes in the third of the heats and you didn't think you could have sprint the favourites it would be in your interest to hammer the pace early on because there is always the potential with six fastest losers that one Heat in theory could get nine through well that's the theory but theory doesn't always actually work in the city mitaina jeff camos looking across all the time see what's going on Carew just on the inside they're just sort of like running at almost a job face here for most these women and I think there's going to be a case of someone really sighs decided they've had enough Sidney Madang they're coming through the Moroccan just to take up the lead - Kim is happy with that a sapphic just on the outside there so really at the moment cinema danger siding there maybe we've got to start making this a decent race and get on up she's working hard and there's a gap though I don't know why they're not going with her but there's a gap of about six meters so far as good work from the Moroccan second in the world youth a few years ago she was 14th in Beijing and didn't manage to make the final in Rio last year so she hasn't completely run away from them but she's clearly decided ok if I'm in a group with the likes of a safer quickly krauser the defending champion Chet komoi and purity curry to come off champion I don't think necessarily I can out sprint them for one of the three spots so I'm going to now hit the front try and inject a little bit of pace and give myself half a chance of maybe going through as one of the fastest losers good decision there from the Marat yeah she's doing especially can you get the feeling though that it's worth four laps to go about two maybe three laps the Kenyans are start moving through so - you know obviously a surfer of Ethiopia just to make the rhythm hard over the last because these women those thrilling I've just mentioned could run sort of close almost to nine minutes these are the women are struggling to get their TVs closed about 9:15 to 926 so the glass at the moment is hanging back and there's always the danger here Steve as naturally she slowed down again in the rock and there once again tightly bunched only two athletes have drifted off the back there's always a danger when they're running this close together there's another bit of shoving going on there but they could actually then they catch each other's heels and one or two could go down I will seal it before well but it could happen again but let's hope not in this race so it's disappointing I suppose to some of these athletes seem really maybe should have pushed the place on a little bit more if it stood a chance of trying to get through as well some of the fastest losses there's a big three in this one you know they are the two kids out in front the moment to come all curly and also if you've got a sapper here didn't silver medalist is one in this race surely someone should start taking it up trying to get in there and break it up a little bit and make it a decent race to get one of the qualifiers as the fastest loses amazing shot this from what they call spider can quickly stucked in in fifth place with grouser alongside her once again they really slowed down three laps to go then in this the first of three heats in the women's 3,000 meter steeplechase well a lot of is women in this must be quite happy for a slow pace obviously if it weren't really hard then they may find themselves something but even if they are happy with the pace they can't let this linger too much because it would borrow down to who has the not the best deeply chases in the event really and the disadvantage you have of being in the first of the heats here is that you don't know if it is a slow one there is no guarantee that any of the fastest losers would come from this first heat your putting it out there but the athletes in the second and third needs to know exactly what they've got to do they did improve and increase the place a little bit on that second kilometer but you're leaving it out there for the others in the second and third heat to have a crack if you're in fourth fifth or sixth and it's slow you're living dangerously perfectly now of America moving through on the inside it's like maybe gotta be careful there because you can actually go across that line off the water Japan and be disqualified so they have to make sure they don't go across it by Tommy oh the water job quickly came through quickly back to literally pull herself back into that line in order not to get DQ'd but here we go again there's still a group up what is it 12 of these athletes coming through with just two laps to go in the women's degree trades per team less than 800 meters to go live in this first heat of the steeplechase Modar Nate has been leading she was off the front by around about five to ten meters but she's been swallowed by the pack and is once again at the front but it's a very comfortable place for most of these world class women Karoubi is in second place the Commonwealth champion with her compatriot chip boy the taller of the two Kenyans on the inside in third as the defending champion and the safer the Olympic medalist from here in London five years ago coming up on the outside and remember the very talented American Quigley right on the inside they're trying to get in the mix but they're all beginning to queue up for what could turn out to be alas that burner yeah they are just coming around the outside I just thought get a Bahrain the expatriate can you coming through now into what is it sixth place so there's another danger woman coming through at the moment this time they will come round with one lap to go and it's still the Moroccan leading Jack the boy looking over her shoulder there just to see what kuru he is they take the bow in this the first of three heats in the midstream thousand meter steeplechase it has been pretty pedestrian so far and a little mini break is on here good running by McDonagh the Moroccan to set the pace Jeff Moore is the defending champion she's on the Moroccans outside a safer he was on the podium here five years ago and then it's Grasser and quickly with curry the Commonwealth champion just trying to work very very hard to get back to this leading five only the first three remember will be guaranteed a passage through to the final on Friday and it's been slow so we may not get fastest losses here there's quality in this leading group and a little bit of bumping and marching going on there Kurumi trying to close that gap just gave quickly a little bit of a shove and she landed all could be there to Kenyan which is why the gap has opened up between the leading five and her good running here from krauser she wants to make absolutely certain the bronze medalist from two years ago started a little into that barrier browser making certain chef come over the defending champion will be there so too quickly she ran really well Carew II the Commonwealth champion just coming through before she'll have to wait to see if she can go through as one of the fastest losers as the best of the rest come home including Lenny wait a very tired figure there just a few seconds inside ten minutes well krauser did everything she needed to but they were so slow early on Steve they left it to the sprinters to get themselves comfortably through for the final you know certainly didn't Kraus all my good good work about really the German very slow time 939 86 well that's disappointment ready for some of those athletes because they're not guard up you after that go through some of the fastest of the losses so the athletes make a hasty exit out of the rain Diocletian er in the women's launch of qualifying competing is an authorized neutral athlete the Russians first attempt to the competition remember 6 meters and 70 automatic qualifying I see the big blue line [Applause] six meter of 79 she gets the right black always so tidy inefficient technically seven meter five janta six years ago Kushina 675 season's best decent on the board no athlete yet getting there the six meters and 70 you can see the wet on the runway so some parts of this track are actually shaded from any of the rain but six meters and 51 a solid opening jump back of Ukraine European Judea bronze medal is back in 2013 in the European under-23 bronze medallist this season six meters and 59 but she has gone there seven meters of the best last year so first attempt two big pools of athletes 30 in total trying to qualify for this women's long jump final perfect on the board simple hang technique oh look at that so six meters and 35 the back of Ukraine the other pole as I mentioned going on at exactly the same time there ain't even of great wisdom northern island no first attempt to the evening Oh that's good well home supports always helps than a white flag as well world indoor bronze medalist last year in Portland and injury problems when she got to the outdoor season last year but that is a very good jumped 678 is her best this season all very close to automatic qualifying six meters and 63 a very good opener for the British athlete Tianna barter letter you can see the rain coming down but the American looking to automatic qualifying here the defending world champion you can see a speed she's a ten point seven eight 100 meter runner Tianna barter letter world class of both long jump and sprint the height she generates with the speed on the runway loves doing both the events you asked her which she prefers the most which is extremely happy of course to be world-class at both so bar two letter six meters and sixty-four close to the automatic qualifying could be good enough if we don't get 12 athletes over 6 meters and 70 will take the top 12 so from one American to another Brittany Reese she's won a world title every year for five successive years from 2009 to 2013 from the Olympic long jump champion in 2012 when she gets it right she absolutely nails it seven meters and 13 this world championship season a little bit to give on the ball but that's safe in the first round since meters and 51 job down to more if needed to go here's the results from the first heat browser running really well chapter more the defending champion and the reason to ruie the Pollard world champion has been promoted to third is because Quigley the very fast high quality American has been disqualified and a Steve over pointed out it looked as though she had run very tight to the left-hand side of the track after the water jump and that does produce problems occasionally in big races that's why zekiel Kemboi was disqualified having initially got the bronze last year in Rio no Hammond now is about to take part this is the first aid group qualifying distance 7550 and the great have a deck their opponent about to perhaps defend these World Championships here an interesting character obviously in this first round is that the young Sergei Litvinov son of the great Sergei Litvinov who won the the championships back in 1983 meanwhile we go back to the track second heat of the women's steeplechase 14 athletes take top and I would say on on paper drop probably not as strong as that first heat he put the like so obviously with your bet there maybe it and kept coke they've kept showing index not as much there she is the Olympic champion and a world record holder last year absolutely fantastic see still just 20 but having said that I don't think there's the depth that we thought that to the first heat pack I agree and I've just gotten through the season's best Steve and 9 in this race this season run faster than the quickest fastest looser time from the first heat so maybe if there are one or two athletes here who don't feel as though they're going to be quick enough in a third up on the last act to make the top three maybe we'll see a few athletes there and make sure that the pace is fast that was just farik's with missing the athletes that were just Barrett's the United States Champion she runs runs she's in Lane five and if you find this last time around yeah it's gonna be interesting I mean I think they've just saw very slow heat yes most of these athletes can quite easily run faster than that if they try but where they dawdle around like we saw in the first heat or not is a question mark and it gets lalong from Canada that comes right across maybe to follow yeah good running early on here the Canadian tried to come through and it's a Czech coach who was fourth last year in Rio she leads at the moment or at all rangy Kenyon as frente comes up and maybe this is going to be a little bit faster although it's not lightning quick at the moment but that first teach Steve was very slow in particular yeah this but this looks a bit faster and I think thanks to took courage to push it on a little bit she's a very strong athlete obviously runs cross country as well and in the mix Walker's country she ran the ankle ache and started 12 seconds ahead of does anything about well that's not really something you look forward to is it but she held on to the lead most of the way so she's a real strong runner and that's why I think she likes getting up there and also it's a lot easier I think in these conditions to lead maybe a little bit rather than starting to suffer a lot from the rain and everything else that's going on down there tracks up if you don't rush order there's Jeff Beck just moving up just checking what I love there really weren't they see what's going on technique living their coach down a little bit but it seems as if the well sorry the Olympic and World Records decided to push it on pretty fast here yes she bets as you said the world record holder and the Olympic champion and still only 20 she's got good strength as well seventh in the world cross earlier this year but the question as to whether they go harder than the first heat has already been answered because they are single-file already Lavar nastanovich of serbia women's long jump qualifying seven meters and eight last season very consistent at global championships for medals at the lion last five championships indoors and out well she's very close if not bang on to the automatic qualifying distance of six meters and 70 there or there abouts took the European indoor cram this year in front of a home crowd when she left out to seven meters in 24 it was a wonderful competition so she awaits the distance six meters and 62 so a lot of athletes getting close to the automatic qualifying line back at the second heat of the women's steeplechase so now H is pushing on as much as she can and she is really doing a good job just behind her if you expect your bet just latching on then in third place it's better of Algeria unfortunate Jeff we just missed some time ago a bit of a fall really from Fenton of Ethiopia she found fairly badly in the water chase she saw way back now in the yellow and red Vespa she is gathering ourselves let's a disappointment but these two pushing off it won't really matter I don't think too much about the times from these two athletes we expect earth these two to do really well but behind is where the other athletes should be guaranteeing themselves to try and get to obviously the only other places available plus the fastest losers yes and at the moment it's prereqs of the United States who made the Olympic final last year she leads those chasers but as we said at the start Steve nine women in this particular heat have run faster than the quickest of the fastest losers from the first team so we really will be keeping our eye on the clock 9:40 is the fastest of the quickest losses from the first heat that's the Commonwealth champion Carew II I beg your pardon Carew was promoted to third so it's still 9:40 with Madonna of Morocco so we need to watch the clock because it isn't just about who finishes first second and burden thoughts running well on the inside behind the American the American who now represents Jamaica there's a little bit of a gap with third and fourth back to fit so maybe talk is getting herself involved here to be battled for the third automatic spot well there's the fall look there it is unfortunately she was right up there really and take on Ethiopia but she really did not just fall she crashed into that water jump how she got back up and back into the race I don't know look at her look she's still struggling there's athletes behind of coming over the jump almost missing her treading on this is beautiful rhythm though is that from the the reigning Olympic champion just easing herself or axis the way she likes to run just at the front keeping her rhythm going not really worry too much about what's going on behind and by the way steel yeah this is really impressive from these two to bet is an unbelievable talent for someone who's still twenty then two is coming back into this slowly and surely so we've got the leading four we've got two packs of two and there's plenty just at the top of the home straight she's now moving through almost level with Muller there she's in sixth place and she's gone past the athlete just on her inside there Muller of Denmark and fencing well what a story it would be if she could get back up and challenge for a top three spot she certainly has the American and the Jamaican in her sights well as I said if she could do that that is impressive I mean it's impressive I think to actually get up and probably gather yourself just just stand but she got back up straightaway and started running so good all credit to her this hope she carries it off the church though is just moving ahead now or but Jeanette with these two just been playing cat-and-mouse the little bird in front not too worried about it don't think it's just to heat they're just keeping their rhythm going behind what well the gap of what is that almost 50 meters now the other yes and then it's pensive leaning a little group of three just heading towards the wall to jump from now are now out of shop and I can't confirm the Ethiopian feeling safely this time Steve these two miles clear but what stage do you start thinking we'll hang on a minute you know we've got an advantage of 50 meters or so the two laps to go why don't we take our foot off the gas and preserve ourselves for Friday's final the logic would be over the last lap obviously you can't slow down too much over there over the 800 meter mark but having said that is Kenyan kidney was his brain which is Kenya Merced each other they don't like to lose so they're just keep going I think to the line and they move you just look at the score don't forget there's a massive scoreboard either end of the Straits so they can look up quite clearly seeing that they're 50 meters or so clear so there is no real reason to keep the rhythm going apart from the fact that they're quite comfortable deep zone so still these two world-class athletes out front check Co X the third fastest in the world this year and route chebet just behind her the Olympic champion the world record holder and a really good run at the world crossing cam Tala that was a fantastic addition of the world cross country championships back in March so much enthusiasm for distance running you've gotten dirt as well as in Kenya and Ethiopia well rich from the United States and thought of Germany are in third and fourth at the same vent a nail is moving very well in sixth place at the moment so they take the bell in this second heat of the Libyans 3,000 lead a steeplechase that's three ryx of the United States incurred with caught up Jamaica in four it's the first three to advance as of right and that's the lawns of Canada she's going well in fifth with been she behind her in six been she recovering from the fall and she's not going to finish in an automatic spot but remember it's not just the first three there are six fastest losses across the three heats and the first heat we know was very very slow so we do need to watch the clock as the leading to head towards the finish are these two maybe we could take it very easy from here on in to courage just ahead of the Olympic champion Ruth you bet whether they're split to learn a hot wok this is gone just behind you say the American a rich honey tree she just straight legs in a stride again no need release do any more than that interesting to say that I'll get keep harping back the frente and Ethiopia is in now in sixth position and if she keeps in six position could make it as the last of the qualifiers by the fact that she's convinced could sorry just we should make it through I think this sort of time to time 9:19 much faster than thirsty turrets looking very comfortable there with Tibet in second place a log of Canada in fear well I think anyway lob that Ben Taylor Ethiopia just waiting for our time to come up here at the moment I think it's going to be very fast they didn't yet significantly fast but we still got one hit to go so we'll have to wait and see what sort of lived and that's runner no problems really at all for this woman it is just the heat took courage taking it very very comfortable D there's so - this maps this woman as well we did it I'm around one livin off doubt competing as one of the neutral athletes in this event [Applause] in third world champions lost on grounds that's the qualifying mark to could see where that hammer landed well it was just short of that season's best 77 32 so should really be up for the rail that sort of area his father obviously be great certainly well so this must be Sergei Lippmann table the second I suppose world champion back in 1983 am in 1987 then they lived in champion in 1988 so what a pedigree this man's got try to vote now Finland 7550 the qualifying mark sixthly last word championships money shouting that one on remembers just to qualify again short we thought previously that because of the conditions here because the circle is very wet that these men would pass up the opportunity tonight and take on the possibility of throwing tomorrow but they've obviously decided much themselves that they will come out and have a go and I'm not sure that's surf conducive to a long throwing it might be that some of these qualifiers might come from the distance below the distance of 75 50 anyway they take a Liberty to get away from that area where the hammer is under the cover of the stadium just behind the hammer circle Sikorski another the neutral athletes here see the best 76 23 holding it together just at the end I think that could be the first qualifier mark there if that's the case it she asked on the line very controlled good lift with the arms right at the very end [Music] touching that line well they're here right on the qualifying line 7550 so he could put he tracks it island go back and have a cup of tea relax our lads of Hungary another well he really did have a go at that and I think it has gone yes over the qualifier like to that sir that's going to be marked of his qualified so far for once it allows at the 23 chime just 20 years of age he looks a lot older I suppose he's a big man there you go fifty seventy five fifty six six centimeters over that qualified written Big Eight of France let's get out and it's gone long - so I take back what I said these men arnelle started to Quetta over that qualifying mark quite comfortably Winton Big O of France French champion first in Luxembourg first in actual affirm then Tom baleen first in the European throws cup so yeah he's happy with that 76 11 just throw so far here's the results of the second heat in the steeplechase check coetc and chebet are through sochi Frerichs thwart Lalonde Ben Tate and kaya are all in fastest looser spots at the moment [Applause] women's long jump qualifying Chantel Malone first attempt everybody chasing if possible the automatic qualifying line of six meters and 70 [Applause] well again she's one of several athletes at the moment getting close to the automatic qualifying line difficult conditions around 6 meters and 35 at the moment they're all they're about as she's perfect on the board is what's sitting in 12th place over the two tours cuz of course they'll be combined it's gonna be close it's gonna be around six and a half meters six meters and 52 back in the hammer pick roller pause this man went into the circle Nick Miller of Great Britain his rip British record holder when 77-55 for speed there was speed there that was oh wow that's a good throat just on the line again as it would have to wait to see almost out to the sector a lot of speed that rotation really took the hammer right out to the left side of the sector they are just waiting for the distance to come up 7550 - that's it qualified for Miller he's in the final this is the start list for the third of the heats in the 3000 steeplechase cellophane chess poll only 18 years of age an absolutely massive challenge and Emma Coburn very fast American will be hoping the children spirits in the final and there is a Coburn bronze medallist last year in the Rio games six times the national champion she's the sixth fastest in the world this year Genevieve lekars we've met dr. Keith Bernard look Switzerland Carruth hematite the rosy car last year is pretty champion big smile from her second from the inside what an unbeliever you tellin fastest woman in the world this year second fastest of all time world junior record when she ran 858 in Eugene Bertoni of Italy just gives a little weight on the inside so the third of three heats in the women's 3,000 meter steeplechase as safer the slowest of the fastest losers at the 9:40 at the moment so it'll be the first three to go through as of right and just as we saw in the second heat if these women can make it fast we may well have more than three to the final be on Friday it's the Turkish European under-23 champion took the Givenchy who is leading at the moment just deciding to make sure it isn't too slow and really the star in this heat the cellophane chairs pole World Youth Championship Caen got a bronze in the world cross in Uganda earlier this has pot running on the left of brain there some talent at the age of 18 she's already the second fastest athlete in history sometimes I think age with the Kenyans doesn't really matter too much as talent isn't it me and this woman certainly has got that dude up just coming on the outside there the other way Theo pin in this need to chase very bad conditions are so I say for the ethics here tonight in the stadium it's pretty is pouring down at the moment so no respite from either the water jump all the rain really shemot i the ugandan in second place just put her right hand out there just to indicate and remind and a Coburn of the United States the Olympic bronze medalist have to give her a little bit of space and it's very tightly bunched there dear oh you mentioned steep she's a really good athlete she's wearing the t-shirt under her vest which shows you it is cold and one of the British girls just fell there at the back at the water jug mother's bigger fall as we saw from fen soup in the first heat she's back on her feet and just running second from last there so that's a real shame for her but dear oh the Ethiopian good runner just had a shot at the moment 50 R in London five years ago and fifth in Moscow there she is running in the t-shirt Clark that actually thought that was it's not a bad fall but enough to sort of put off a rhythm of it which is important at the moment they're running at a respectable place and I think that's good because it's it's a possibility that we could get one or two early fastest losses from this race but that last place is pretty fast as well so they'll have to wait the safe if the rhythm drops and they're gonna Park the race but it looks as if the rich up turkey is doing a good job she's pushing on from the front and the others are quite happy just to stay behind yes and I just noticed the teenager cellophane chess pole taking slightly closer order at the fun tiny little bit of a gap there with the leading five I think that's Genevieve Lacaze on the inside in the familiar strip for Australia with D wrote of Ethiopia on her outside and the cars made a bit of a name for herself at the Commonwealth Games in 2014 I think was Ida her 25th or 26th birthday and after running for Australia in Glasgow she stormed the stage and was dancing alongside Kylie Minogue on it people she they didn't notice you there turn about the car searchers they didn't notice to begin with because she was dancing so well I think the organisers thought she was one of Kylie Minogue's official backing singers so she said she's a colorful character and she's up there in the mix for a spot in the final at the moment Gemma Tai leading with Emma Coburn and then Ches Paul on the left we haven't mentioned too much about Winfred yavi former Kenyan now representing Bahrain 6th in there about Diamond League she's in third place and she's a better athlete than that she's gone 922 this season but it is the American now leading Steve yeah a good move really I mean we know she's a classic go broken if she keeps the rhythm going she might defeat the fact that it's gonna be a fast last lap and I think that's what she really wants she's a very strong athlete and I think she knows that to keep this rhythm going I was a good thing rather than it's like an orphan so Coburn from Gemma chai shares cult governship Turkey the European under-23 champion she's running well this year 926 she was knocked out in the heats last year the Turkish athletes she is only 23 so only just turned 23 she's tucked in on the inside just a place or two ahead of Lacasse and dearö closing the gap on the leaders once again also it should mention Yami there she is a diminutive in the bahraini anon the inside there has been tucked in all the time but she looks very confident she's moving ahead now into second place so I suppose you could say that they're starting now the best athletes I started to move to the four slump now leads that chase group because we have what a leading five we've then d row in six and Shemp in seventh place she's still close enough feet tall athlete from Switzerland in the fifteen euros last year that she could close the gap but they are just beginning now to wind this up a little bit and now the group is noticeably splintering once again I think it's yappy they're just leading now is really still splitting the place between ourselves and the American Cobo to see say it's almost in you far behind now this group of four slightly moving away from the others but the gap now with three laps to go isn't significant the others to come back get the feeling that both Ethiopia in there DMO is closing down now to make it five up there at the front inside the last three laps in this the last of the three heats and the women's 3,000 meter steeplechase yavi of Bahrain Lea they hugely decorated youngster cellophane chest pole in second and once again she just gives Coburn a little message with her left hand say hey listen neither of us wants a ball at this stage of cooking my heels Coburn in third place she's really become a fine fine steeplechase ER and lekars Steve running very well for Australia in fourth as a little gap grows to D row until the cars yes I think the cars is in fourth place at the month you get the feeling that D ro might be closing down the Ethiopian but the cars only well at the moment though secure is only three places in this race because the second heat was very fast indeed the Carters have looked they're propagating little job there so yes you've got to really make sure that you in this three and for those of you following by way of the fastest looser spots as we look at Clarke she was the one who had the pole and she's desperately trying to close the gap on the athletes up front but she's a a long way back from an automatic spot the slowest of the fastest loses is a safer who was on the podium here five years ago in 940 so we may well get a couple of fastest losses from this group but at the moment just cold leads Coburn in second there are the class act in this evening Navid a 17 year old Kenyon representing Bahrain in third Lacaze his fourth and then it's zero which shook up Switzerland trying to close down the Ethiopian but these four have a clear and the rest yeah it's going to be interesting to see hands up over the last 600 meters or so Coburn I think is just an all she has to do just on the shoulder all the time of Bert's as far but they're starting to pull away to the gap now maybe of a meter or so is he going into the second-to-last steeplechase sets pop really has started to put it on and I think just the hard consents it may be the rest of the other Abbie's are settling into fine it up for the third place the RV I think will be happy with that but ours whether she can beat the others if she does a big right before mr. spiro coming through fast there she realizes that she's got to really make up the gap now on the last lap they take the bell in this the third heat of the women's 3,000 meter steeplechase only the first three guaranteed a place in Friday's final but there are six fastest loser spots up for grabs and there will definitely be one or two fastest losses from this heat assuming the pace stays as it is the Ethiopian who's in fit place at the moment doing a level best to close the gap but it's the hugely talented young Kenyan set up in chess ball he leads Coburn the Olympic bronze medalist in second and the 17 year old from yah be in third in the class of Australia having a really really good one in fourth with dear Oh in fifth and schnook of Switzerland sips these four just wanting to make certain there are no mistakes on that last water jump so to zero who were lands with both feet in the water meanwhile we know only the first three a guaranteed so we can expect a little bit of a burn up here the class coming past yeah be the youngster Coburn and chest part very very comfortable qualification here crossing the line side by side chest pole Rob Coburn Lacasse in third yeah he will make it as a fastest loser so to tiro and coming home very fast there he is casita and we haven't seen featuring the Argentinian I think she may well make it through as were some good running here and nice round of applause for Rosie Clark of Great Britain getting up having fallen early on a decent recovery from there but she will not be going through as one of the fastest losers Diocletian ax rail number two in the women's long jump qualification six meters and 51 in the first round the rain bouncing in the puddles on the back straight Tichina looking to potentially improve her six meters and 51 she's comfortably in the top 12 at the moment well that's nearer the automatic qualifying line it'll be an improvement on our first round jump to six meters and 51 we're hearing Spanish of Serbia's retired from the competition after their six meter and 62 jumped puts her in 4th position overall when you combine the two pools so she's hedging her bets keeping her powder dry as we say but that was better flunked lishchyna six meters and sixty six it's the best jumped of the night so far circletine up leading the way through both these qualifying tools griever of latvia six meters and fifty her first attempt it is a distance of six meters and 36 at the moment that's 12 in the rankings so three that [Applause] well that's better she has gone out to six meters in 72 this season a lifetime best of 686 has stood since 2011 do you qualify for the long job finals at the World Championship back in 2011 and 2013 nor in London when the Olympics were here five years ago so that's good jumping six meters and 58 moves up the rankings get yourself a little bit more comfortably into the top 12 go back quickly to the men's hammer Dilshad nazarov second attempt bout his first sailing out sailing out all right on the line again this is me almost using the qualifying line there as as the summit to aim it Olympic champion is fourth attempt to 2016 well must be a qualifier mark there is that yeah there it is 7550 for thank you he says that's it on about paid dick here's first round defending world champion his said look at his purse ramp throw the 71-43 [Applause] that's a massive so let's go way over by the world leader at the moment that's a good throw big man for the polls over the great competition in throws Oh deep powerful arms is holding onto that sailing up yeah well 7680 - yep on a big man put his tracks along as I said before over the back straight we still have some of the other compositions going up yes Steve the women's long jump qualifying continues nobody over the six meter and seventy line Tichina the closest was six meters and sixty six but the music ramps up to the medal presentation at the mayor's pole vault a wonderful competition last night he really was it was equally anticipated and it didn't disappoint the world leader there with Sam Kendricks here right here in London the world number one oh and how fitting we've got the I double-a of senior vice president [Applause] cause the outright world record-holder till the Manning runs off him with his junta six liters and 16 a couple of years ago the villainy there is picked up the bronze medal five meters an 89 yoke and at five meters in 65 and you really did battle for that bronze medal he's had a complicated season with injury he said afterward he was delighted to pick up another world championship medal after a difficult season silver in 2013 and now for bronze medals from the World Championships [Music] silver medal goes to Poland title I SEC took a bronze in 2015 he gave himself a fright taking three attempts to clear five meters in 69 65 centimetres but went over 5 meters an 89 first time absolutely delighted throughout the whole competition yes a silver medal to the gold medal went to the best athlete in the world this year Channel two ten wins for Sam Kendricks as the USA Olympic bronze in Rio last year became the fourth US vaulter to join the six meter club earlier this season five meters and 95 serves in the US Army Reserve it was understandably delighted to pick up another medal for the US team [Music] [Applause] Brett will go on goal for the USA ten years ago in Osaka and he has tears in his eyes Zach Kendricks picks up the gold medal in the men's toll vault how long will this rivalry continued they are very good friends there's wonderful camera Audrey around in the male pole vaulters section through track and field for the last couple of years Hendrix liesecke and lability collecting their medals of the six-time world outdoor champion Sergey Bubka and the weather for them was a lot better last night than it is this evening certainly was here's a confirmation of that third edge in the 3000 steeplechase the 18 year old chess ball taking it from Coburn under cars yah v-0 and caseta with a South American record tipping slump to that last fastest loser spot the final will come on Friday and there is the lineup roof chebet the Olympic champion and world record holder check coetc the third fastest in the world this year Pro burn can she get amongst the medals once again and how about that frente who took that really bad fall in the first heat she also made it through as one of the fastest losers so in the women's long jump Shara Procter of Great Britain Northern Ireland's is their third attempt she's trying to get into a top 12 position here the World Championships silver medalist a couple of years ago well she acted with a 607 then a 6 meters and 26 way down on her season's best of 6 meters and 73 you combine both of the tools she's gonna get near that 6 meter and 40 line well she's perfect on the board is it enough to squeak her into the top 12 you saw the graphic of 18th overall and she gone over 6 were 6 meters and 45 she's in 12th at the moment the British athlete will have an anxious wait round three rosanell in the hammer four men always tuck that one out very closely second seventy four oh seven this looks a lot better this is just over that qualifying I think well the world student games silver medalist had to leave it into these last throat if he's got it means that in this creep eighty one two three four five six seven men will get the qualifying distances have a look yeah seventy five ninety eight third best throw so is qualified by right yeah that's that's pretty good because that the conditions are not perfect look at that circle it's like a swimming pool and these are big big guys hamming round whoa - Troy us look at that I mean they're big guys but they're very agile - but come on whoa I mean this is suddenly I suppose the ones that we didn't see leave are back on the track the crowd are really good and excited other men's 5000 meter heats about to take time yes it's an absolutely enormous field this one 21 men in the first heat 21 in the second only the first 5 +5 fastest losers make it through to Saturday's final as the Britons are concerned huge interest and expectation with the man who's moping towards that middle lane at the moment doing his strides estate could be man to put moe under pressure he also goes in this heat I don't think they'll be too interested in hammering each other in the heat but II drous is very very fast and has a lightning-quick last lap as well no Farah pathway towards yet another golden double he hopes the only medal for Great Britain so far but even though he spent most of his life his early life in Great Britain even he is feeling the chill deceit leap it is very cold and it is still lashing with rains well there are so many often around on the far side of the track we have two different starts here is the official lineup for the first of two heats in the men's 5,000 meters yarmulke shelter well he's been around three or four years despite the fact that he's only just turned 20 no ferret going in this one and also our uncle a who plays a really good cross country on and looked re dress who many people believe could be the best of the Ethiopians to challenge mode assuming they both get through tonight safely and make their way through to Saturday's final and there is Mukhtar eBrush just mister level in Moscow and in Beijing but he's the fastest man in the world this year for the world junior champion over the 5000 meters he is really really quick on the last left blanket on the list he's a modo there of Tanzania he's got a hot mouth investor just outside the hour 12 Eric Jenkins second in their trials good athlete their PB 1305 once again an American having a good season over the distance events wait this could be quite a big cheer already a three-time world champion and two-time Olympic champion over 5,000 meters Ross is a good athlete eight fastest in the world this year seventh in the Rio final behind Farah last year and in this guy I first saw him run at these Youth Olympics in China in 2014 and thought what a challenge he was then he's only just turned twenty World Indoor champion over the 3,000 maybe that's his best distance is pretty handy over the five and he's the fifth fastest in the world this year that's past year Abdi four for the European Championships back in 2012 over the 10,000 meters so massive filled all eyes on Farah and Idris they won't be trying to outdo each other too much here just safe qualification will do [Applause] [Music] I've often you have a 5,000 meter race where the athletes are asked to stand back from the line there is quite a lot of noise here and the crowd are actually having a little chuckle to themselves as the athletes once again get themselves ready I think someone actually put the foot on the line and the official said step back yeah okay fair enough first stop two heats in the men's 5,000 meters is underway only the first five guaranteed to advance into Saturday's final first five fastest losses across the two heats which have a combined total of 42 men running two absolutely enormous fields here and though Farah kelsa pries the Olympic champion the world champion is right at the back in last place where he always likes to start these races well mile I think is doing all he has to do remember is five to qualify fairly comfortable qualifications really for the men's fine even though there are big fugitive sailor 21 in his feet and low knows that really the best thing to do is keep out of trouble keep out of the way of everybody in there in the wet conditions where they gonna really start maybe slipping a sliding if they start pushing one another and get their head but it matters towards the latter part of the rest its FIFA the European champion last year from Spain who's leading and he perhaps has decided that if it comes down to a burn up he might not be in the mix so he wants to make sure it's a half-decent pace early on yeah people running around they're just behind you can see it means I'm about five or six there started to stretch out so the paces group and he's picking it up and he's making honest remember first five and then the five passes through to the final cooling of South Sudan I think the the most recently formed country in the world are certainly was last year in Rio he's in second place on the inside and in fact he is the very first participant from South Sudan in an edition of the World Championship he leads from FIFA with Kuechly mode on the inside kick lady very talented Eritrean just having a little look round and he now decides to come up onto the shoulder of the man from South Sudan are they keeping this pace going it's good if they could just move it up now he's got his head down there and that's the trouble it's raining it's not conducive to running fast at the front is it and that's the problem leave her just behind him the Spaniard who did the early part with the face making the first lap also just now being thanked that someone else was pushing it off and they're moving away while they are pretty well spread out here as Kipling who was fifth in the world cross country championships this year for the World Juniors silly medalist over the 10,000 meters he leads Mo Farah has moved up a fraction just to make sure that that gap doesn't grow too much but this for the fancied men in this lahnstein it is about getting through with minimal energy energy expended even though they will have a couple of days off before coming back for the final on Saturday that's right and then just stuff really what they've got to do that but it's all put it here in the first team we've got to move through fast because you don't want this secondly nearly to be faster than lose L your prices one of the fastest loses women's long jump qualifying continues round three Salman Rath good Germany eight here in the heptathlon which is a tidy long jump to six meters and 86 are the best so looking to get into the top 12 that's better well she Oded with a no jump then did 6 meters and 42 remember britain's sheriff Proctor was hanging on to a 12 qualifying spot of 6 meters and 45 so there's a few movers and shakers well she likes it so I'm gonna guess she likes it because she's elevated herself into a top child position so the multi of enter the German six meters on 52 indeed she gets into the top 12 comfortably Britain shower top two exits a good place for a heat in this 5000 meters 65 plus change kick players keeping this pace pot and that is why this group are fairly well spread out peoples in second place the ugandan running well they're in third no Pharaoh a round of an April 9th place there as Jenkins comes wide on the outside and I noticed about a lap and a half ago Jenkins who was second in the US trials had to give conjuncture a massive shove in the ribs to get himself out and it is Jenkins the American who's deciding to get a little bit closer to the front as mo farah does as well and conjuncture sandwiched between the American and the Briton so the big names are just gathering a little bit Steve yes certainly just still a rain check - the guy in fourth am usually before this ammo duct Tanzania he's been right place all the way small guy just ticking himself through there so he's doing quite well Kipling space is pretty good I'm looking at heads down there that can see he's really working hard there's the 2k5 32:57 setter back to last lap sixes it's a slightly slower but because of that you can see the pace now being ejected a bit more yes they were about second and a half slower on that particular lap as kept lino the world junior bronze medalist on last year's 10,000 meters and well junior cross country champion earlier this year in Uganda he leads and he's certainly not someone who's afraid to hit the front the crowd in Kampala went absolutely mental in the colo low independence grounds as one of the most memorable moments I've ever experienced in covering distance running and it is the young teenager he's only 16 by the way which is hard to believe Capri moley's keep playing second FIFA third as you said steep really good run by kiss on odor of Tanzania with Jenkins and then Mo Farah and Idriss and culture that one a little bit quicker 65 and a half yeah yeah if a director sees lead there but you can see that they're still the rhythm is down there any news fire no one has decided to make a big move as yet the pace respecting them with nothing significant every shot their shoulder to see who's behind him Idris is there the big two are supposed looking each other somewhat they're the gesture the very tall Ethiopian just coming around the outside what there he is a bar rhenium looking at each other they give ma a lot of respect because really they could actually box him in at the start but they're not doing that you could just see Coachella that just holding his arm up to stop if you roll here a few times in this race athletes have had to put their arms up to say hey listen just give me a tiny bit of space here and they must have slowed a fraction here because virtually the entire field people take one or two who drifted off the back come back together once again and it is this very young Ugandan very young very confident world junior cross country champion we hit the pond there yes it was outside 66 or sixty six point three there so they are about to lap an athlete I think is the Mauretania Muhammad San Bay who came in here with a very very modest lifetime best there he is just towards the right of your picture there he will be swept aside here but great to see some of the smaller nations well represented here and quite rightly he does move himself out into Lane 3 and let the rest come through on the inside led by Gissel Lolo the chasm in he's got himself a couple of meters up there I think it is of Azerbaijan another one of the few nations needs in second place at the moment this is a bit of a bull isn't it really from dis about pushing it on as fast as he possibly can getting that gap now of about well five or six meters on this group yes he's running really well and in fact Tanzania I think had their first medal ever in the men's marathon and English in becoming through another sixty six point two is a quite consistent similar coming through lake before thorns medal in the marathon as Jenkins makes his way up onto the shoulder of John if Katyusha with Great Britain snow ferret behind him and II drous his trapping Mo Farah there they are on the left of picture the two men fancied to battle for gold on Saturday well just get a moto do very well by moving up very well as you said interest shadowing him all the way carefully now started to move up this deliberate about ten there it's four laps to go it is fired to qualify but I wouldn't have to be in that group really because any one of these athletes over the last tool through that could muster a bit of a finishing to upset the applecart and I just notice they're steep no Farrell is getting a little bit of ping they're from chip lake and he's on the outside of 'ibraheem of who you mentioned the Azerbaijani european go champion back in 2013 as cap lemo this really young talented Ugandan comes up on to know Farah shoulder that got a little bit quicker down to sixty four point nine and that's why they're now strung out just a little bit so we have the Tanzanian kisum odo leading projection with that long looping stride in second Ibrahim Adham Azerbaijanis third and Farah looking cool and comfortable at the moment in fourth place we're coming down to the decision time now for some of these athletes three laps to go in the heat of the 5000 remembers just the heat as Rob said you try and go through this with as little expenditure of energy as possible so some of these athletes have been holding back quite rightly but they are they've got to decide Marla just looking up at the scoreboard there and as he looked up he saw that there's a match really of whales still behind him then let's drink it out they're still there now we've very wet slippery conditions elbows being dug into ribs they just need to be careful that they don't end up causing each other a problem as McDonald of Australia comes from the back of the field to get himself in contention Victor half the licking man for a 5000 meter runner and watch out for Act II of Belgium who's on no flowers inside as the defending champion and reigning Olympic champion comes why we need Raheem up on the inside and look at that pachow a second bar a third an aegis coming up on the outside as they come round now with two laps to go she lapsed again and this really shouldn't be too much excitement here because it is just qualifying but it looks as if it could be a race the way this gotta go remember we've got a group of about Drive athletes there were just five places to grab and it's the first heat they've run really soon respectively but obviously the second he could go a lot faster really Ibrahim off at the front Kenyan athlete by the way has been left very unusual for a Kenyan there was a fallen Eric was the Spaniard FIFO who went down I think and he's struggling now to get back in this group and now there has been an ejection of pace look at this - Gela on the inside Berra in second Abdi's on the inside in that dark strip the Belgium just mr. medal in the euros recently he drous on Mo Farah shoulder and all the big men are beginning to gather as they wind it up for the last lap just watchin Coachella they just books across at mine every time mo makes a move he did shoot pussyfoot down on the throttle so he's holding now off that's his intention I think over the last lap while we can expect some chopping and changing here especially as they're lapping at place on the inside and outside the juncture leads Act II of Belgium on the inside with Mo Farah on his outside and as far alerts on his inside Aegis comes up on his right-hand side you can see how wet it is that great tracking camera shot is spraying some water up in front of the camera the judgeship ferret Aegis Abdi what trying to get in the mix on the outside and Jenkins is trying to mount a late challenge the American there'll be two athletes who might get lapped here we'll try and make sure that doesn't become confusing the gels are looking really good here pulling away with ferret in second place aegis on his shoulder very tight for the other spots that the key three athletes are cleaner and away very very good running from those three fairly steady taste there and their pace just got them out of trouble towards the business end of that race we'll try and wrap up who took the fourth and fifth spots there but as for this youngsters only just turned 22 gel sure really good running from him he's at alright easily as well he's big lad and he was watching that all the way around that race I think they realized that mo over the last that was someone to watch but could gel choose just to heat don't forget just the heat source of the two excited but yeah but get the ethiopians I think of Lud from that 10,000 meters what they've got to do if they're going to win I could tell Chuck did his best he could and how'd everybody looks ranging looks even quite quick for Georgia Idris is also there the other Ethiopian so those big three went through mark still got stumped although still has got another two or three years they're really if he needs to but at the moment fascinating for this five dozen it is final and it was actually night the Canadian who came wide on the outside with Kip Lake in a very good half marathon runner taking that fifth spot so we'll need to keep our eye on the times for the fastest losers watch night coming past chief lay here just in the closing stages active Belgium faded unfortunately for him so he'll have to wait and see he finished in sixth place just by a whisker from MacDonald but Coachella and aegis and Farah running well within themselves there and ferret well it was almost motioning those like this in a dress you've got room move out to your right hand side there was a lot going on behind them but the big three made that look very impressive yeah no problems at all I mean he's run the 10 already so this tired makes there so he's not going to take too much out of himself in the heats of the 5 he just looked me across see where everybody else is behind they were closing fast actually if you watch now the camera angle will show you that the other athletes obviously there are the charge the most checking all the time looking over he showed up interest looks at him was it to say well I'm coming you interest doesn't seem et voilá because he knows if mo is there he's not gonna let anybody else past but look at this night coming through a Canada wow they were closing fast but these feet totally in control the gel Chang looks very comfortable this role ranging that's totally Theo Kia but you know we all time he attacked us and looked down to see mo he's so tall it's got a bit of a speed in his legs good a sprint there that could be a danger in the final form oh I don't know but mo let's face it the greatest distance run of all time maybe it's got a lot to live up to yeah mo has surely already gone down as one of the all-time greats the debate will continue with regards to the fact that he hasn't broken or come close to either world record over the 5 and the 10 but in terms of being decorated he is right up there I mean he's already a three-time world champion over the over the 5000 and he's going for four in a row but Kajol sure is a very very challenging man still pouring the grain here but once again we've got a great crowd packed into the Olympic Stadium and another time to look forward to just a minute or two away from starting here it is this is the lineup for the women's shotput final and in the absence of the mercurial Valerie Adams there is a huge opportunity for everyone here to fill some big big shoes Lee Shao Gong has so often finished in the silver and bronze medal position is it finally her turn to come out right on top here we go the athletes are introduced but before that comes the old important pageantry of the fanfare [Music] well that's what a steve-o vets favorite moments there we go waiting all their official introductions car be an big smile from her national champion a couple of years ago from the world junior bronze medalist what about an each of March on bronze last year in Rio world indoor silver bidding to become Hungary's first ever male or female world champion Melissa purple moon well the new European Junior Champion clearly in the mood tonight despite the driving wind and rain brittany crew national record holder a national champion from canada didn't qualify for the final last year in ryokan one better what about this Lee Shao Gong is it at last her turn after six major championships silver and bronze medals perkupp touches yang Qiao well junior silver a few years ago she was spit on home turf in Beijing two years ago Michelle Carter the Olympic champion World Indoor champion and might away run both of those events last year in the very last round always gets it right come a big occasion Gator our canto of Brazil three times the South American champion great smile from her and brilliant at these women are being watched by a virtual sellout crowd despite the weather yummy food EOS Lopez over the pan-american champion Toronto a couple of years ago she has recovered from the key Lea's to be here today what a story for her Raven Saunders what a menacing presence there not a smile that's a an aggressive focused face well junior silver medalist three years ago Daniel Thomas Dodd came through with 1842 yesterday 24 years of age and Iulia Lattanzi of Belarus seven in the World Championships in Beijing but I can be I think on paper Li Hao Gong the multiple silver and bronze medalist will be the favorite of gold will her nerve hold yarmulke gel Germano Farrah Aegis night and kick play are the automatic qualifiers all the big names going through second heat of the men's 5000 meters hey was Gabri here it doesn't start that's a real shame for the Ethiopians he is a multi decorated athlete and has clean on the podium in the last two editions of the World Championship however they still have good representation with forego of Ethiopia and there's Mohammed Ahmed Lisa Navion national record in the final of the 10 beating that set by Kamla vines I know there's a really excellent growing distance running community in Canada they've got an excellent chain came and marathon in Ottawa and Toronto chin and nerdy big Australian he was 22nd in the 10,000 what an athlete here Andrew butcher six in Rio Scottish record holder third fastest britain in history and no shortage of confidence there he's not afraid to run hard off the front Ciolino the cameras have just got faster he was a silver medalist in Rio last year massive massive talent the American Mark Scott US collegiate champion over 10,000 meters earlier this year Cyrus roto won the Kenyan Trials seventh fastest in the world this year moena Norway Brian Hill welcomes or something that lists over 3,000 what a great indoor meet that was important last year the Oregon State will do a fabulous job with the world champs in 2021 and Salomon barega check this out she became world junior champion last year a World Youth Championship still only 17 and the Harney dalu of Bahrain on the inside another massive field 20 men for the five automatic spots secondly to be men's 5000 meters the top five and remember five fastest losers and I think there are three or four men at least all on 1330 as fastest losers from the blanket finish in the first team all the big names coming through that one and then we will hope to make sure that we bring you to class this is a so it's Jenkins the American is the slowest of the fastest losers but I think they're on course to be well at the very early stage they're on course to be quicker than that here they want to make absolutely certain that as many from here as possible make it through to the final so they're coming to the final stages of the women's long jump qualifying nettie of Canada she's in 19th position this would be a shock because she is the world number three athlete this year the Canadian and she needs to get herself into the top cloud no she's just surpassing the six meter line well there's already been one shot with Britain azshara Proctor a 673 jumper this year not qualifying in Christabel Nettie 692 in this world championship season she's not going to get into the top 12 with that jumped it was just over the six meter line no 6 meters and 15 it's not enough it's about 30 centimeter shy the world number 3 goes so here's a summary of both the qualification tools combined together now automatic qualifiers over 6 meters and 70 tough conditions though Diocletian not leading the way with 6 meters and 66 you see the names there Shara Proctor 13 misses out on a world championship final her own backyard christabella net eat we've just seen shakeela saunders at the USA didn't bring her world championship season form either to london so couple of big names gone the world's long jump will final for that women's long jump is on Friday and then qualification group a you can see the big cube by Decker : 76 meters and 82 so 7 automatic qualifiers from Group A but Group B were there due to be up and running in about 15 or 20 minutes time while its Moeen of Norway who leads at the moment and they've gone through the first cave in a really respectable time they're 244 245 with the Ugandan Pisa in second place with the Kenyans closely following butch art is in a roundabout sixth place just tucked in on the curb I think with cultural emo on his outside the Americans so all the big names making sure they stay in contact with Moeen the Norwegian who has decided to keep this place honest and that sir 65 for so good running from the Norwegian in the early stages their guys did a good job I mean we saw 65 66 s in the most part of the first of the qualifying rounds it did pick up a little bit obviously over the last two or three laps but skadootch are pushing it on somewhat but this is a good move they're spreading out Syrus Muto and the shoulder of his compassionate two men side-by-side Menjou 37 years of age he's done brilliantly to make the Kenyan squad again he was fourth in the trials meanwhile Anita Martin in the first round brilliant bronze medal last year in Rio very very difficult conditions they're just over the 18 meter line she has gone 1963 this season and she along with Michelle Carter definitely has a habit of being able to produce big throws towards the end of a competition World Indoor silver medalist last year and a really good indoor season at the start of this year sure she's got a wild card for the world indoors in Birmingham next March I don't think she's overly happy with that just waiting for the official March come up 1850 she's in the lead but bear in mind she's only the second thrower to put the shot now Lee how gone so many silver and bronze medals in the majors and that looks as though she will go into the lead what an opportunity with no Spanish and no Valeria and scullery Adams by the way was here at the start of the championship she was performing some ambassadorial duties and she's gone home now with arguably the most important business of her life fulfilling the last two months of her pregnancy and we wish her well as she heads towards an exciting new chapter in her life but in her absence Dawn has a huge opportunity and that's a good early throw from the Chinese athlete she's in the lead Michelle Carter the Olympic champion the World Indoor champion now how dramatic was that in Rio last year's snatching gold away from Adams with the very last throw of the competition and that's a good solid opener from the American big powerful performer her dad Mike I think we're very very proud of her he got a silver in LA so I'm sure there was plenty of her banter around the Christmas table at the end of last year as daughter outdid father by one single place chopping everyone in Rio particle of bronze two years ago 1882 so she moves into second place back in the 5,000 meters Boeing is still up there in front working hard well he's a marathon man 210 marathon man so he knows what he's got to do he's got to keep this pace go as hard as he possibly can all the way just behind him I thought at that time was ripped open that make joke they're still there the Kenyans it's barega now leading I think Steve the 17-year old who's won the world used in the World Junior titles and still I think he's young enough to have another crack at the juniors in two years time with Baily the bahraini ins he was the ninth last year in the Rio final in second place in third route so it is important in the outside there at the moment that face dropped a little bit just as they do that it picked up again way on the outside also because he said the Chinese food the British athlete there only is has been running a lane to loss or twenty other troubles coming through now to leave Oh states also coming through pace is talking a little bit and they're starting to bunch up totally my run a brilliant race last year in Rio Tamiya I got his last lap that's something like fifty three point one just a few checks behind Mo Farah and then there was a long anxious wait fully Kenyan who has happily made his home in his life in the United States talking of actually no in second there he had a really really long wait because there was a potential disqualification which looked as I'd would have been very very harsh at the time and rightly I think Chu Li mo was reinstated having initially been disqualified so my goodness Lee his emotions went through the ringer on route to that silver medal if they take the mirror tray up with the red shorts and agree best they're coming through seven to the world junior 5000 actually last year so he's a young lad Oh in Chile mo that had almost fell Steve he had his heels flipped and he's having a conversation with Bailey of Bahrain he's just had a word with him on his inside I don't know if we'll get a chance to see that again he so nearly fell over and in fact just after the drama Kazu Z who was a silver a semifinalist in the 1500 last year he's just walked off the track cutting a disconsolate figure the man from Morocco but surely mo was very very lucky there in that clipping appeals to stay on his feet I might have Canada and long-striding Canadian they're coming through and that's at least calm down chilly Moe's gone down well at the second time and that is such a shame for Chile though he's taken one of the Kenyans with him as well let's have another look just to the left of your picture here I can't believe that after just this man Joe who's gone down with him after just about staying on his feet having been clipped the first on a butch up by the way of Great Britain hooker took a real momentum strong but chilly mo trying to charge his way back through the field he's coming past Richard ringer there what a disappointment there from the American especially having almost fallen on the proceeding left and he said that I mean he is catching up and he is closing the trouble with that is that you get up it's like the scared wrap and get up you run really hard then you find out over the last sort of tilt he adapts there's nothing left in the tank and Andrew push-off had his heels clip there just about 10 seconds or so ago and he - very very nearly fell well goodness me there's all sorts of drama going on in this second heat but even though the big Australia leading them through Patrick tear that my son used to run against him some time ago so I know tact really well so he's doing a great job pushing it three muscle sore there that there was a bit of problem behind him and taking the margins of that to just push it off 22nd in the 10,000 year Indian and his best race there I think he's saving himself for the five he's doing best he can nearly really well but whilst Ciolino has managed to recover from that four men Joe the 37 year old Kenyon has been spat out the back he's doing all he can to get back to this group meanwhile Tiernan leaves really good to see the Australian having a go at the Bronx 63 so they have wounded up they knew in second our mates in fourth with the real youngster of the raiga of ethiopia in third Kisa Chu Li mo and butched are socially know the corner and whoops off he's stumbled have come right back up into the mix here so coming down to two laps to go now given the Australian leading through the rigorous as Rob said just coming out from the inside it isn't like being tucked in there baby on the outside that our mate as we saw pushing and shoving a little bit on the outside there root oh they're all there still and they're still pushing and shoving going on they've got to be very very careful there's been Joe so far back I don't think he's gonna get really into the mix you too likes to go real shameful Menjou having fallen so down the backstraight the rake of a 17 year old Leeds Bailey in second chin and now he's BOTS on the inside Chu Li mo and pushed are looked at running on the outside staying clear of James at this time after both of them having a little bit of a scare qisas just drifting off the pace of fraction the other Kenyan is still in the mix Cyrus mucho who won the trials he's on the inside and there's still a few elbows patchy just getting a little dick in the ribs from Andrew cook tart the eritrean as reto stumbles trying to make room on the inside this is absolute carnage this hates TiVo there well they've been slow and now they're starting to pay the price way we've got the bell now there's still a group of about five or six maybe seven athletes there that can make that top five so the rake of the 17 year old Leeds Bailey have got rain coming up onto his shoulder chain in his third comment he broke the national record in the 10,000 having a good run for Canada at the moment Ruto chin emo and butcher and these guys had a little bit of a gap back to the rest remember only buy or guaranteed to make it the other American desperately trying to close the gap as well that it's pariah here the 17 year old showing incredible maturity for an athlete as young as he is he leads with failure in second Chanin's running a really good race here trying to give himself every opportunity mucho that butch art is out of this and so to Ciolino what a shame not to wait to take they go through as fastest losers the rhaegar failure mucho Tiernan all making sure dr. Ansell emo book chart to yes didn't fall that was stumbled he will go through as a party snoozer and so to chile though I think witches deserve because he went crashing to the ground one life goodness me there was all sorts going on but the raiga at the age of 17 Steve such maturity you know he's a danger here the years I mean nearly 17 he will get better whether he's good enough at the moment to trouble everybody in the final of the wait and see oh really such Alima I mean crashing down drop in a five getting back up getting there and then qualifying hopefully is one of the fastest losers if he does that that's a great performance yeah good really good composure there I think it there's no doubt it disrupted the rhythm of both Andrew people tart and torch Alima and there you can see them on the left of picture they're a real shame well I think put job may have realized I think that he was in with the chance of qualifying because it's a fast race and talking to Julia just at the end there I think saying that we may still be in with a chance for a go though the seventeen-year-old world used them world junior champion running really well I think that might be a smile on the face of Andrew book chart there he's looking around Ahmed was six but he'll go through is one of the fastest losses as well and how well Ryan Hill Ryan Hill did coming through to take that fifth automatic spot chilena and put tuck just having a chat with each other like they're out for a Sunday morning six miler but looking at the times Rob I think almost all the qualifiers will come from the second heat so yes there they knew what they were doing some of those behind the leaders there there's Chile my bang straight down just caught the hills and up just behind him all the others really had to hurdle go round them stop shut look so yeah really a scrappy race really which is not good let's hope that the final twelfth that's another rerun of that particular form luckily rid the wet conditions they slide rather than actually causing problems some of the athletes had to go on the inside there does it be disqualified for that they're just avoiding a problem rather than causing it so yeah well what can you say it's just a heat that's the whole idea you should just go through his country with possible they're racing through here Tiernan I thought did really well the Australian coming through getting a place by right because he's already run the ten ten thousand so good performers from here I was really impressed with that seventeen-year-old Ethiopian I'm not saying he's going to beat Mo Farah but he ran a really topsy-turvy race with great maturity great drama on the track and great drama in the field here daniel thomas george u.s. collegiate champion this year proudly representing Jamaica good to see them producing good efforts and getting in the mix here in the field events as well as on the track leader at the moment is Li Hao gone with nineteen sixteen tom is in second place and LaShawn Michelle Carter launched the put out to 1882 so that's around about the medal-winning line at the moment 1870 and that is great stuff there from Danielle Thomas Dodd Mar Tom is currently out of the medals this is her second round [Applause] well that was good she had 1850 in the first round which early on looked as though it was putting her in a podium position that may be a marginal improvement for the Hungarian [Applause] Hungarian team really buoyed by bow search parties surprised bronzed on the track in 110 hurdles familiar green strip of Hungary Tom got on the podium last year in Rio and she's put us up in the hunt again 1889 she's back in silver gone still leading the competition can she finally finally become a global champion so she's going to consolidate her lead their bronze in Berlin and in Moscow silver in Beijing there's only one world championship medal missing from her collection the Chinese are having a fine games actually here in London and a little increasingly therefore Li Hao Gong Carter 1882 in the first round she is in a podium position at the moment if best putter in the world this year just making sure that those hands are dry and have an excellent connection to the foot 20 meters last year in what was an unbelievable year I was around about the same as that which she threw in the first round 31 years of age now and it was one of the great moments in Rio last year she really helped to put females shot-putting on the map when she stole the gold from Adams in the very last round 1886 she's very much in the hunt for another medal here while the second round almost hit me I should say of the hammer coming up shortly the conditions haven't really lessened have they really it's getting worse I think here in the Olympic Stadium it's all seven of the previous throwers qualified by right so maybe in this particular group we might see maybe another seven but as I said before very very wet out there Thomas dart here in the second round she's just off the podium at the moment with that 1870 her face is a picture of concentration well that looks fairly similar to her first round effort but she gets the red flag brutal conditions here they really are the Jamaican fans we were coming in raw very excited they've never had a Jamaican female shock top finalists in the World Championships so as you mentioned were getting quite excited about the prospect of somebody getting near a podium yeah she's done well to make this because she didn't qualify for either the final in Beijing or in Rio last year Leanne siap of Belarus very modest effort in the first round she's lying in ninth at the moment so remember top aides have a further three throws although we are now only at the end of the second round so two more opportunities including this one she just couldn't quite keep her balance there it is very very wet and the officials are actually in the circle at the moment trying to get rid of excess water so one final effort for her to get into the top eight second heat of the men's 5,000 meters the rhaegar the 17 year old bailey Ruto Chinon and he'll and I'm pretty short I was going to say I hope that Andrew Bouchard and chalumeau especially though go throughout the hitting the girls so hard in that heat yes I'm pretty sure they both will make it Scott finishing 18th there Moen who did the early leading down in 40 Gabri he wit pulled out before the race began and as I said kazoos he's in the rock and talked about the early stages of the race that three before here is a poor list of the qualifiers for the point of the 5000 and the good news is Andrew butcher of Great Britain who stumbled and Shelley Moe who fell so badly in that second he have made it through as fastest losers and a great moment for chemo Campbell obtener Kerr he wanted to prove that Jamaicans can run over three and a bit miles and he'll be in the final and have another opportunity to show us that on Saturday so on the track shortly a second appearance this evening for Isaac makalah he did his solo run he ran under the time required to get into the semi-final stage he'll start this first semi final of three semis in lane number one yeah any any problem Catherine a man of his quality I know he touched on it earlier any difficulties that tight inside lane it is the tightest line on it in the track of course but I it's the wet that's bothering me that the officials have been out of the most they've been squeezing water with their big equipment is out of lanes one and two it is absolutely deep in those in sight lines Rob so talent wise know well we'll see what's going to have to know with just the first two and the two fast is going forward to the final tomorrow and the world leader and as it were koala there you see on the caption will start on the inside line of Lane one so the first of three semifinals and the men's 200 meters here's the lineup for the first semi-final nine in this one Isaac the Koala round that solo effort to qualify he's the fastest man in the world this year he's in one symbian a of South Africa in for Nathan Neil Mitchell Blake is Great Britain by a young in seven Raschi Dwyer the Commonwealth champion out in nine absolutely loaded and you'd expect nothing less why they're trying to keep warm here the Commonwealth champion pan american silver his best 19800 M 20 seconds and despite the unfamiliarity of the cold he'll have to get out shut up Azusa well junior champion seven years ago got a real a silver in Rio last year he would only to going through I saw a young one is he to look good second in Monaco in the Diamond League so he's coming into some good form here [Applause] Kyle Grubb semi-finalists for the pan-american games in 15 and the column of games in 1421 9

outside in nine can the Koala cope with the deep pools of water and that tight inside line to make the final first two guaranteed a place in the big showdown chop conditions here and beautiful qualification young is going wrong there in the left hand side the quanis storming through [Applause] [Music] drawler of the Michell great going on in fact call attention Mitchell Blake in third and young I think got second so Mitchell Blake will have to wait to see if he goes through as a fastest loser young got out really well there but the Koala coming through on the inside he was raising his arms in the air bit of confusion as to which of the two got it actually young was given the nod over the Koala Mitchell plate was third but the Koala is in that final and how well did he do there from Lane one yeah it's a great run fact I think the crowd have adopted him though and they've seen me twice and saved and they gave a big cheer as he came through there it's a hard man to run especially when it's wet as it is really and young got the overall verdict but good on the Koala coming back again and making that final he started wonderfully well on the inside line as did Mitchell Blake and of course young but look the way Michaela swept into the home straight this is a man on a mission hence when he crossed the finish line he punched the air like it was a final he was desperate to make the 200-meter final Isaiah a young working hard for that the American he knew he'd have a challenge inside him but Young takes it in 20.12 and Makaha there what a shot twenty point one four seconds splashing his way through the inside line and the British athlete Mitchell Blake twenty point one nine seconds that's good running from the British athlete will remain to be seen if it gets him through in the tough conditions at semifinal number one well we expected a lot and they delivered yeah and we can be greedy in our lust for fast times can't wait but in brutal conditions like this with pools of water all over the track and driving wind and rain that was good running the American ran a fabulous first hundred meters gave himself a brilliant platform and actually the first three were miles clear of the rest shopper Michelle Carter 1886 in that second round can she improve on that and give herself a chance of moving up to silver or gold she is the Olympic champion looked a little better that one the lead is Li Hao gone with 19 meters sixteen seven women I think this season have gone over 19 meters so it has been a modest season by their high standards 1914 Carter the Olympic champion moves up to silver back into the hammer down their wiki of Poland qualifying as I said before 7550 off controlled it Wow and it's gone out close to that mark difficult to see in fact it's gone well over it actually so this is a good first time parents for this man Clevelanders at the last World beauty and Olympic Games so let's just have another look he's very happy so wet up there the literally running out as a circle that's a good throw 76 85 so qualified straightaway on the first rope hye-young and isaac Makwana are in the final good running from the box Laden in his second 200 meters in the space of two and a half hours mitchell plate not too bad at all 21 9 in the driving wind and rain he'll have to wait to see if he makes it through as a fastest loser hi Hiro the Hedgehog he's not heading towards the oh I thought I thought for a minute he was heading towards the water jump with a steeplechase good work there - I think the steeplechase pit is the next next destination for him surely he's a bit of a character the guy in that costume apparently they flown him in from the states give him time he'll gravitate with these little dinky I'm sure towards the steeplechase well let's get back to some serious stuff now the second of these heats and the men's semi finals now we've got a chance to have a look at - yo hat Blake in this one well all eyes will be on him now that the big man is in this vault not mint running the 200 meters so obviously a big opportunity for those that's been in the shadow on the past and they'll come into the light there's yo head yellow vest obviously there he is running in line 7 we saw nine athletes in that previous it because of the vision the koala thing very similar nine athletes walk I think it's been the first time for sometime in the previous semi right it's not too often you have a nine laying track that goes all the way around the 400 meter distance is it so you have to take advantage and get the nine athletes in that first semi-final but we're back to lanes 2 & 9 second semi and this is a man to look out for as well do you have dream Richards look really really good in qualifying first you see 20 zero five dozen years HIV to open debate on champion as the lineup Blake has said going in seventh Richards in five remember it's just two to qualify really hard really cutthroat qualifications for this Emmys so they're young Wilson Hughes King Richard's see me Blake Balto who run really well actually in these qualifying in the hundred meters easier and then semi Brown I think semi brown this man here on the outside is a real talented young Japanese athlete well we've Tokyo coming up he's mixed well Chavez they're gonna be looking really good in the sprints and in the Raiders as we've always seen here he is w 'the champion in the sprints in 2015 Japanese record holder at the one and two on the inside of him another youngster yen vaulter of the snowpack the public record holder the one and two European silver indoor biggest then the great Yohan Blake speak double Silver's in 2012 behind the great man himself 2011 he became the youngest man ever to win the World Championships having meters shaking his shoulder it is cold Sidney's jamie-san here Cox at nine eight eight to the hundred head out a cheap in new Sabbath and this is the man I think my challenge yo had Blake during Richard's to meet up to pay doesn't really look very very good in qualifying yep he knows easy great shakin on the east side of him Green Kings from Oregon University well it's really University the producers and great distance runners both barrels over there but this man is very fast to fold in their trials zarnow refused well listen to this the young Brent does 22 years of any to fit in the World Championships of Jeremy this slide by the injury last year but back now to great form and just on the inside from Switzer's Alex Wilson transferred from to Baker well sometimes it's hard to make the Jamaican team isn't it really that was running for switch them 30 finalists in the 100 meters in these championships right just to through to the final all eyes obviously beyond 1 7 and maybe maybe there is a possibility that Doreen Richards could give this man a bit of a run for his money but wait and see go down to the box second semi-final Wilson Hughes King Richard's say me Blake volcko sandy brown like cleanly lights got a good start it's very very fast going all over the side as rich is also coming out the outside sunny Brown of Japan running on the inside you can see which is now starting to part it on Richards is touring the way two or three meters we're just a new solid but on the outside sandy brown did that all in for second place while Blake run out of it at the moment while we said this man was good and he really did show their the winning time twenty point one four he really did come off that bed and had no what one or two meter gap on everybody before he even started coming into the strike it was a good run Doreen riches concentrating on the two hundred meters here he's come through a win for him of twenty point one four seconds the rest of the field with three tenths behind so Mitchell Blake the British athlete at the moment looking good sandy brown there the Japanese athlete twenty twenty four three seconds he ran a tidy bend as well at this point kingly American had gone through the first fifty meters well but look at Richards it really was a good run Yohan Blake never really got in the mix in terms of the top two he's run not 100 meters here is just mr. medal in that event but the world number two of all time Blake from Jamaica struggling to maintain his form and Catherine he's living very very dangerously indeed because he's the slowest of the fastest loses at the moment great run by Richard but when you bear in mind you've got weds Vandy Kirkland extra kuliev and Tolbert in that third semi-final the chances of Blake making it through as a fastest loser are very very slim how good was that from Richards strange this year that the Jamaicans in the Sprint's especially the men's are not doing as well as we thought really obviously you know it's it's something which they pride themselves on at the moment but I don't thought the Blake would produce a better performance than that to be fair he's trying to get back to his best Yohan Blake he's had major injury problems over the last couple of years and he decided to double here which surprised to me considering the form that he hasn't had the past couple of years so as Rob said he's living dangerously in that second non automatic qualifying spot thomas dodd she has made it through to the fourth round fourth place at the moment with 1876 in the third round she's been pretty consistent with her series so far now can she challenge a medal position she needs 1889 that's Marton of hungary who's currently in third position she finished in in Rio last year well it's another good throw but not close enough to challenge the Hungarian just yet it's gong leading from Michelle Carter the Olympic champion so here is the Hungarian who's lying in third she's had three really solid throws so far but we know at her best she can go way over 19 meters she has a habit won't see an improvement I don't think she has a habit a bit like Michelle Carter of being able to improve towards the back end of a competition that pressure seems to bring out the best in the 28 year old 34 Hungarian titles when you combine the indoor and outdoor bests important figure in Hungarian athletics so it's the weakest of her efforts so far but she remains in the bronze medal position now Michelle Carter she's got better with every round so far as you can see there 19:35 is the lead from gong-gong LED right from the very start with 1916 and then improved so she's Hannah she's only got to find around about 20 centimetres or so to give herself an opportunity looks around about the 19 meter mark that one it's not quite firing on all cylinders for Carter the Olympic champion and World Indoor champion but we do have to bear in mind just how wet and cold it is this evening here in London I'm reliably before we would promise some kind of heatwave in with this I can assure you if you've never been to Britain and you're reading the stereotypes it doesn't always rain here in the summertime we do sometimes get a bit of Sun I don't know you've been Robert I've lived in vice Martin it does always right in the summertime 1903 no improvement for Carter she stays in the silver medal position and what a story emerging here if Lee how young can at last become a global champion bronze in the Olympics in Beijing silver here in London silver in Beijing in the World Championships two years ago half of the hand short there no probe for gone two throws left remaining she is in the gold medal position at the moment that part is closer the heels where those result of that second city front great run from during Richard's really tore away from everybody else any brown can write to on the outside for Japan Yohan Blake as Rob said living very dangerously with his third semi-final to come so they start this final semi-final of the men's 200 meters white van Niekerk is back he starts in lane number six if it was Christophe Lemaitre in eighth an impressive Daniel's hole but in between them in lane number seven for Britain so here's your fall lineup then that second house of Greece seven times the Greek champion at this event is 200 meters he'll start in lane number nine 20 point three seven seconds to qualify for the semi-finals Lane eight Christophe Lemaitre of France as hard for bronze medals from two successive Olympic Games 20-point to nine seconds this season 1980 at his best six years ago lay number seven the crowd would give a big woof the Danny Tolbert's Great Britain Northern Ireland's second at the UK championship but ran a personal best to 20 point one six seconds to qualify eight on the UK all-time list now the lane number six way badly Curt Olympic 400 meter champion now twice a world champion over the 400 meter distance looking for that very unique to and 400-meter double starts in six reign five Amy a web of the USA the US Champion this year twenty point zero nine an impressive 20 point two two seconds in his meat and then in lane number four also impressive in the heat by male ghoulia of Turkey twenty point one six seconds equal fastest in this race from the heats along with Danny Tolbert in seven the Turkish athlete good lane draw in lane number four lane three from the Ivory Coast will three coffee become champion of both sprints in 2014 on this season in completing the lineup into from Guyana Winston George their record holder the new South American champion of 400 meters so lanes to tonight the first to get to the final tomorrow wait band Nika in six told that in seven la Mettrie in eight juliet of turkey in for Wade van Niekerk said he conserved energy last night in the 400 meter final it was a little bit chilly for him and it's not warm here tonight and he's got to get himself in the top two to continue the assault of the two and 400 meter double so as a clean start in the rain the American web going one inlay number five website on that Nikko at the moment Tobin's going well the lecture the French Japanese going well but it's the American [Applause] the American eco has got some work to do here well unofficially twenty point one eight seconds reveal ghuli above turkey well here and that twenty point one six seconds the impressive qualifying to get to this semi-final and he ran a super race there it really was a good run Wade Bernie Kerik had a little bit of work to do in the home straight the American was running well in lane number five as well amia Webb so we'll wait for the times to come through his booty as confirmed in twenty twenty-one seven Genoa Catherine I said to Steve at the sets of Steve at the at the start of that race that kuliev is an underrated athlete he is so good when he gets it right the American by the way was by far the best starter and we can now confirm van niekirk will make it as a fastest loser which means that Yohan Blake doesn't but ghoulia ran really well there we've got right up on Van Nica on that Bend Kathryn and I think that might have contributed to the South African looking and maybe feeling tight I can see the expression it's hard to tell with the weather so bad and I can promise you when you're sprinting with rain in your face because I look at the best the van Niekerk digging deeply those is not in an automatic qualifying spot and as Rob said he has got through twenty point two eight seconds in third amia Webb just ran out of steam in the past twenty B's last 20 meters didn't even go near twenty point one seven seconds well twenty point one seven seconds in pouring rain really really cold conditions on a wet track that's got to be worth sub 20 they're covering the fire and as Rob said really under estimating this man he's run nineteen point eight eight seconds a couple of seasons ago he's been under the magical barrier before but it was impressive in the rain and there's confirmation julio and we're automatically through well i guess from a neutrals point of view we do have as we see a confirmation of the lineup for the final we do have the koala and we have the Nika in that final that Juliet looking very very impressive and van Niekerk won't have a decent choice of lanes well you won't because the final will be seeded off your position a semi final qualification so the Koala will potentially get a better lane drop but that is a 200 meter final to look forward to round five Daniel Thomas John us collegiate champion this year off the podium at the moment well that looked better that did look like it could be an improvement now remember third place at the moment I think is Martin of Hungary with 1889 so has Thomas dot given herself an opportunity to produce a first medal for Jamaica in this event I think she likes it oh look at that by a couple of centimeters Thomas Dodd moves up into a pony in position Mart honest out a poor gone is our leader giving that a big roar and that's better she's tickling the 20 meter line there and that will extend her lead by quite some margin so often she has finished the bridesmaid - Valerie Adams bride and she's giving herself a massive opportunity to finally call herself a global champion look at that 1994 Carter has a habit of leaving it late but the gauntlet has been well and truly thrown down by the big Chinese woman that's her compassion yes yeah rain continuing to pour down here as we head into the sixth round what a good throw that was from uni Hao Jian started this as the favorite so fifth tier poor gal bronze is with the Jamaican on 1891 this needs to be a big improvement from the 24 year old [Music] No just creeping over the 18 meter mark and that won't be good enough to challenge for the medals it's been a good competition this one and are we going to have than the last round fireworks which took Michelle Carter to gold at the world indoors in Portland and in Rio so it's not to be a medal for gal and she presumably will hope that her compatriot does indeed secure that first seemingly elusive global goal the answer she's had a bit of a wobbly card really three no throws only two efforts registered 1812 remember it's 1891 for a place on the podium you repeat indoor silver medallist a couple of years ago no way way short not to be there for the Belarusian eat and one by one we are falling by the wayside Carter and gone the athletes in silver and gold medal positions we're heading towards the conclusion of this one Thomas Don's in for a slice of Jamaican history potentially as they've been disappointed with their performance elsewhere Brittany crew of Canada 18:58 she'll need a lifetime best if she is to move up into a medal position really cold here in the stadium incessant rain no it's a pinnacle competition from the Canadian record holder and national champion she fouls out with that one no improvement there so we are getting close now to the very important throws at the end of this competition what a fantastic effort from the 24 year old Jamaican to give herself the chance here of consolidating on a first ever world championship women's shotput medal all the Jamaicans 1891 at the moment oh that's another good put she's producing her best at the end of the competition I don't think that'll be far enough to challenge Carter in the silver medal position which is 1914 but it was a good throw from the big powerful Jamaican woman she was absolutely delighted with that 1891 in the proceeding round 1876 so her best effort is 1891 now then she just has to watch here and hope for her sake that Anita Martin who's now down in fourth by two centimetres doesn't manage to find the tiniest improvement Olympic bronze last year and that's big oh my goodness meet the Hungarian so often delivers in the last two rounds of a major competition and that may well be heartache for the Jamaican who might be seeing a medal snatched away from her garters in the silver medal position in 1914 oh she's gone ahead of the Olympic champion Marchon will be on the podium a silver medal fantastic now then just as Martin so often delivers her best at the end of the competition can Michelle Carter reproduce what she did in Rio last year and Portland last year 1994 for gold and she reclaimed the top spot Carter with a big one no I don't think that's going to be an improvement she is going to finish on the podium but it is not to be the gold this time for Michelle Carter what a fantastic throw that was from the Hungarian to move ahead of the American Olympic champion into silver so at last at long last as Carter celebrates bronze and Martin who's absolutely delirious with that late charge for silver at last Lee Hougang is a global champion brilliant bronze at the Olympics in Beijing silver here in London silver in Beijing two years ago she is the champion of the world can she finished with a flourish oh it's another good throw it could be it could be her best of the evening 1994 in the penultimate round she's once again getting close to the 20 meter line and I think there are tears there she's done it 1989 her two best rose coming at the end of the competition and after a lifetime a lifetime of missing out on top spot at last she fulfills her dream and becomes a global champion Li Hao Tong completes her world championship medal collection twice the bronze once the silver but this time she is the queen of the shuttle Anita Martin a late charge for silver and Michelle Carter what her dad will be so proud it was double gold last year indoors and out this time the silver and the emotion overcomes the 28 year old from China and what a fabulous Championship they're having in the throwing events they really are Li hao gong is the world champion and I'm sure watching from the other side of the world Valerie Adams will not be in any way disappointed there with the lady who succeeded her as champion Li Hao Gong is the world champion last Anita Martin takes the silver and Michelle Carter the Olympic champion bronze this time so two big finals to come on the track the men's 400 hurdles will be first and then the women's 400 meters Karin Clement fitting for an unprecedented hat-trick of world titles over this event no man or woman has done that before this is the final drivings wind and rain here's that nothing will dampen the atmosphere ahead of this great race the drumroll in the stadium here they come a shame capella bronze medalist last year TJ Holmes from the world junior bronze samba4 Home Care on Clemens know it of Jamaica Santos a brilliant race in prospects despite the brutal conditions does history beckon for Karen Clement he will arguably be the favorites of this one there he is Olympic champion and his third attempt twice a world champion but they came a long time ago Osaka and Berlin and equally what about the Norwegian he's had the season of his life Carsten barhom started out as a world youth champion in the acht a plot now found his best event and no Norwegian has ever got a world or Olympic medal in this event Katherine Clement is the favorite for this one but he can't afford to make any mistakes because of our home in particular is in cracking for me it's going to be fascinating because farhan they're in shock he pumps himself up slaps himself in the face gets the crowd going and goes out like a rocket and I don't think he'll do any different tonight because that's how he runs he's been in wonderful form on the flat and over the hurdles but Karin Clement well he himself is fast over the 400 meter flat he's been around for so long here on Clement this would be a wonderful achievement it really really would is 6 foot 2 tall he's now mastered the 13 stride technique which is what edy Moses brought in all those years ago he has the height the ability and the basic speed to do that it's going to be a fascinating race he's got the expect lame draw Karen Clement in lane number four totally agree with everything you said Kat and Rob but as an outsider I'll go for yes Manny kept a low who looked really comfortable coming through the heats and semi-finals and he's an outside chance yes but you've got to give the man credit as a possibility yes Capello is a fine fine performer and we should also mention where we'll be doing the full light Lane lineup shortly Samba of cat are huge P V in the semi-finals he's so new to the event officially according to all the statistics that we wade through before each session that semi-final was only his third outing hurt his third official outing over the distance which is ludicrous when you think he's knocked down a 4831 so a big opportunity for Chiron Clement and there's Capello as Stevo vet was saying bronze medalist last year European gold as well fifth fastest man in the world this year prowling and waiting very very cold this evening times maybe not quite so important but this is a great race in the making it really is there's Karen Clement as Kathryn was saying it's hard to believe that he's been around as long as he has that he's still only 31 that shows you how young he was when he first exploded onto the scene and became the world champion ten years ago well indeed and it was such an explosion onto the scene as well European Tour to Spain in Trinidad and Tobago but it's been representing the Stars and Stripes at the US a wonderfully well 31 years old can he win his third world title ten years as you say Rob after his first in Osaka it's a big big piece of history waiting for Karen Clement but he's got to beat everybody including Farhan and watch when he gets introduced to the crowd he really gets himself and those in the stadium fired up that's what he did in Oslo and he said a massive lifetime fest over the for Platt new national record 44 87 it's got all the makings this one it's the final at the men's 400-meter hurdles here in the Olympic Stadium we're heading towards the climax of day six Chiron McMaster the world leader disqualified and showing a little bit of inexperience the man from the British Virgin Islands not clearing one of the early barriers correctly this is the official lineup then Karen Clement the Olympic champion the two-time world champion starts in for farhan who's had an absolutely outstanding season for Norway he's in thigh Samba this really young and experienced athlete from quatre goes very well in six on the outside in eight bronze medallist here we go then Kareem Hussein European champion back in 2014 only made the heats last year in Rio he's done fabulously to make the final yet Marni Capello we know he's got big talent and can finish on the global podiums but he'll have to go out really hard because there's intense quality on his inside TJ Holmes third in the u.s. champs only 22 of big find for the United States well junior bronze medalist a couple of years ago after Amon Samba this really tall 21 year old from Qatar looking cool and relaxed in the shades and the cap massive massive PB in the semis could he be a surprise package here Carsten far home this time looks a little bit nervous that's restrained by the way for his introductions to the crowd and there comes the chess plumpy and the home will come under pressure from the favorites the Olympic champions bidding for an unprecedented Patrick of World titles no man or woman has ever done it in World Championship history the American imports came our MOA second in Jamaican Championships another youngster just 22 years of age looks actually form in the semies nothing to fear for him you understand tous younger brother of Luke Ellen who went out in the heats in the fall flat TV in the semi-finals great to see here we go then a real sense of anticipation on a cold night in the Olympic Stadium Santos Dominican Republic to know at Jamaica 3 Clement us a for VAR home Norway 5 Samba Qatar 6 palms us a 7 Capello Turkey 8 the same Switzerland in 9 does history beckon for one of the fastest men in history or can a man having the season of his life caused a big upset final of the men's 400-meter hurdles [Applause] [Music] today in stir the legion who's good away from the he's closing in on the youngster from cattle on his outside waha bleats at the moment has he gone too hard too early what we'll find out in fifteen seconds big big leaves the color going well second from the outside and planet starting to close really good running for the youngster from cancer the Farhan let's put himself in the driving seat here he leads the clemencies closing the Americans coming an absolutely brilliant run net from the Norwegian he went eyeballs out right from the start we expected the Olympic champion to close and he did we expected Capello the bronze medalist from last year to close he did the Sun how his stamina held burn and he makes history the Norway they've never won a medal in this event before and they have done now it's gold what a wonderful run he went out as expected like a bullet Kieran Clement was flying his 13 strike Patton was going wonderfully well but he lost his whole momentum the American into the 10th and final barrier he couldn't recover he didn't have the turnover of speed of the 10th at all but this young man that standing by warmer water absolutely superb season 48 point three five seconds the world champion I know that you can believe it it just shakes his head down there at trackside I think he came off that bed at least guilty leaders clear everything us and that set the panic in I think they all started to see that they were coming at him as you said but they were a few mistakes over the last photo kotero i thought that that just a little bit too like he was perhaps out of all the antics coming the fastest you know what a performance really we were hoping maybe that he would produce that wonderful tittle championship dog but not really Warhol was absolutely flying we knew he was gonna do it guys didn't we he always goes out so hard down the backstraight lemon had him in his sights Capello was running wonderfully well on the outside nice and control just as Clement is at this point you can see the two taller big guys but coming into the home straight wall Roman he he'd set up such an advantage Clement on this point was coming back and was on a roll and was chasing the four five meter deficit but coming into the final two barriers Clement absolutely lost his stripes and watched the American here inside the Norwegian he's on a hunt he's on a hunt now I've took it on the wrong leg lost his momentum the Kataria thief was absolutely falling all over the place but look at that finish strength stamina Drive and desire and rewarded with a gold medal that is such a brave way to try and win your first global title well he's announced himself now because it's all very well setting TVs in the diamond league but you've got to come and do it on the global stage and we have to say Samba was all over the place those flattered that barrier otherwise he was very much in the hunt for a minor medal clémence is one of the greats he's a two-time world champion he's the Olympic champion so what a brilliant brilliant victory for varam not only to do it but to beat one of the men who's been at the top for a decade clemont's the seventh fastest man of all time if you look at it the top ten list with his 4724 but you can see here the contrasting fortunes the hope in his own lane focused on the big prize the two big guys outside they've messed up their final barrier their hopes of gold was gone and it's the shock it was a shame though Sam but as you pointed out Rob he was coming he was the young Qatari but he hit that hurdle so hard it literally just jarred him back and he just never recovered of ohan took it for the word go and that's all you've got to do in the World Championship set the face that you've sent the others chase that since these arms he's touching so hard here he's working so hard right for the word go but he didn't slow down that's the essence of it all it's the mixture of experience of youth in this shot isn't it Kieran Clement as you mentioned Rob 31 years old wore home 21 Samba from Qatar 21 and Capello then Clement the two experienced athletes that's gonna take about four and a half weeks to potentially settle in for him that is one of the great images of the championship so far a man has delivered the performance of his life beating one of the greats and so surprised that he's been able to do it cousin Waldo was that the world used acht at LAN champion just four years ago and he's now standing as a mature twenty-one year old as the world champion in the 400 meter hurdles such as the testament to the program of age group championships throughout the I double AF he's come through different events but I think he's found his home now history for Norway rather than the United States Boston for home is the world champion he couldn't believe it when he crossed the line but he will when he stands on top of the podium Capello another major medal for him silver and the Olympic champion and two-time world champion this time has to settle for bronze Karen Clement well it was a super race but the last final this evening is the women's 400 meters [Applause] so just as the men's 400-meter hurdles final was pretty unpredictable or hard to call this woman's 400 meter final is exactly the same but before that Stevie family rendered many qualifiers for this and this is the world got a three at the moment trying to qualify [Applause] No [Applause] yeah he's not over the line but the actual distances we've only had one qualifier the wiki of Toland by right from this with his 76 85 it was seven qualifiers from the previous a heat so maybe maybe he might get through we'll have to wait to see when they bring up the scorecard 75092 57 is down sorry 557 meters down on that qualifying distance so the athletes do the long walk from the core room to a track you can assure you you're walking towards a major championship finals in previous rounds but they're the athletes then for the women's 400 meter final Nasser from Bahrain they're walking through the shots phenomenal qualifying is just over 50 seconds in the semi final Allyson Felix will start at number five the defending world champion three times a world champion of the 200 meter distance being kitted out Rock has been kitted out I'm gonna make a guess take a tree but by the end of the night that will be upturned and it will be full of beer Gerald Levin posing for the selfies good to see that he's taken that so graciously one last final to come and what a final this could be the final women's 400 meters like so many finals at this I double AF World Championships eagerly anticipated because she's just don't know which way it's gonna go that Lisa lineup in lanes to tonight I'm Popo at Sambia [Applause] billowy bow of the Bahamas that was nestled running through in Bahrain Phyllis Francis Williams Mills Jetson boat representing Jamaica Allyson Felix from the USA arguably the most complete female sprinter of all the time so fast over 100 200 and 400 meters she's looking to defend her world title here but in doing so she renews her battle we sure Nate Miller we bow of the Bahamas world number once Phoenix this year forty nine point six five seconds at the best forty nine point two six and a couple of seasons ago two tenths of a second ahead on lifetime best the Miller we boat will start to lanes outside up but it really is guys a tough one to call this you look back to the world championships two years ago it went Felix Miller in Rio last year it was reversed by the narrowest of margins with Miller we both throwing herself at the line winning it by just a few hundredths of a second it's a really fascinating battle this one because Allyson Felix is one of the most majestic looking sprinters I think we've ever seen male or female she's been around the top for such a long time but I know she's still performing brilliantly and she could obviously still win this one are we just beginning to see maybe maybe as she gets towards the last couple of years of her career Miller weave oh those few years younger just 23 years of age is it now her turn to shine and take that mantle from Felix on going forward [Applause] well it's a good-ass come in but I still think this is as you said one of the greatest fridges have you ever seen a great I spoke to Cathy earlier I think she'd have run before earlier in her career we could have seen they're getting close to that wonderful world record but at the moment you're right she's not perhaps at her best but having said that is still a talent rock you can't dismiss it well I have a qualification went to the for book really the champion there and as a rock getting through very comfortably don't forget that was the first object qualifying rounds a which seemed to have got all the qualifiers through there was only one from the previous B group that got through but as the same only the only the main qualifiers got tweaked fairly comfortably so back to the final event then this evening that's finished Frances in Rio last year thirty nine ninety six this season only four women have gone under the magical fifty second barrier Francis's once what's your instinct then Catherine you you've won an Olympic medal in this event you've watched them around the world for the last few years on the Diamond League circuit feel it's a Miller we both how do you see this one I genuinely don't know in coming into the championships I've been calling it as Miller we both just because of a 200-meter speed this season there she is twenty one point nine one second she ran in Eugene at the Diamond League but Allyson Felix has a habit with even less races to get it right when it matters it is too close to call the final of the women's 400 meters with the form of Nassau of Bahrain in lane number four in the semi finals as well running 50.0 eight it's going to be an absolutely cracking final so we'll introduce the athlete shortly and then potentially in just under fifty seconds time we'll have our world champion there's you fall lineup three athletes representing Jamaica two Americans to line up for the women's 400 meter final some familiar names some new names starting on the outside Comanche and photo of Zambia fifty point six seconds this season African Games champion in 2015 Lane number eight from Jamaica Stephanie hammock person was in 2013 been in Beijing fifty point five six seconds this season they number seven from the Bahamas the Olympic champion forty nine point four four seconds are the best Olympic champion starts in seven finish Frances from the US in lane number six twenty five years old now just shy of a lifetime best that she set last year this season in late number five the defending champion three times a 200-meter world champion a winner of the record six Olympic golds diving the real the individual and the winner of nine War chairmanship gold medals outdoors [Applause] late number four 19 year old Salah IDI NASA of Bahrain born in Nigeria my mother's Nigerian the father is from Bahrain and wonderful form in the semi-finals and then the evergreen lovely Williams Mills this is her sixth World Championships the best position bronze back in 2007 completing the lineups sharika Jackson was two years ago the fires Phoenix and Miller she'll start on the inside line so the final of the women's 400 meters Jackson Williams Mills loser Felix Francis billion Milla weebo in seven [Applause] it's gonna damage in a while and 49.95 seconds finish frogs is out to blend number six is the world champion in the women's 400 meters in the final 20 30 meters again villa weebo was she hurt did she stumble finish france's personal best forty nine point nine two seconds she's the world champion a national record of fifty point zero six seconds the nasara Bahrain and Allyson Felix picks up the bronze in 50.0 a Milla we bow in for well just at the look of that again that was drama right to the end wasn't it whatever happened to Milla we've oh there she was leading looking comfortable and then all of a sudden something went maybe it was a hand string it's just wait to see the cell another look it was a great run up until that point where she had the problem there she is third from the left hand side as we said and by the way NASA ran a brilliantly controlled race she's third from the right hand side here saved it all for the last 115 came through brilliantly Felix was aggressive down that back straight I thought and maybe went a little too hard look at Miller we bow here on the left hand side she flies round that top Bend beautiful running watch NASA there third from the right hand side you can see how powerfully she's coming through and at that point francis begins to close watch miller weebo it felt as though something just went it's a roundabout here she starts limping I'm not even sure it was a stumble something just went a bit like a hamstring Rob really at a slight half because he's holding her left leg pretty badly and she's limping beyond the finish line that's such a shame it really is here you'll get it closer look talked about injury denying home on the verge water shame for her keep an eye on the replay here Phoenix have nothing more to give Frances sense that and past a teammate you know we bow here was in control she was glancing to her left what happened to the Olympic champion look at that left leg Catherine she wasn't able to extend it as she got towards the line and she'd had a little grimace there not the usual grimace I think that you'd see from an athlete suffering from lactic in the last few meters I think something went inside her left leg and that was the problem Phyllis Frances though a personal best performance the American delivered when it mattered from her point of view that's the fastest that she's ever run lowering her personal best of nine forty nine point nine four seconds fifth at the Olympics last year it was a great run by the 25 year old whatever was going on around and she kept her focus and she powered through his team so that was a very strange race I mean the two big favorites really both of these suffered badly I think Phoenix from a far too fast doesn't have the scene Dungey got the strength of the took for over the last hundred meters you know she could she faded badly but Villa weaboo I'm still uncertain of what happened I think she was really tired but also she might have a slight fall I don't know whether she tripped over her own foot well you know what he says the second major championships in a row that we need to wait to hear from Shawn a Milla we bow as to what happened at the finish line right after Rio last and in this final here Allyson Felix you don't often see her grimacing and running like with a face like that but it is another championship medal for Allyson Felix the bronze in 50.0 eight seconds well finish Francis well done to her it was a super run by the American out of late number six a fantastically time run per we were talking about it being maybe a changing of the guard and okay it didn't go to Miller weibo I actually think she may important the top of the neck foot on the ground and that may have caused her a problem but Allyson Felix didn't catch her foot and she finished third so is it a changing of the guard is she going to be capable of coming back and challenging the likes of Francis in the future or NASA who came through brilliantly for the silver medal with a national record she ran a really really smart race because she was so conservative on the first 150 and that is why she did so much damage to the rest of the field in the last 30 or 40 meters well that's disappointing from below ever but I think maybe the conditions cast might be against it as well it was very cold there tonight maybe she cramped a little bit we don't know we just have to wait and see if you have a head-on shot that would be absolutely wonderful to see if she potentially did trip over her own foot when she was bringing it through because let's not forget she does have a habit of tiring badly understandably so last year in Rio running a lifetime best performance that her legs just gave way when she fell over the line so did she have lactic again did she trip over her own foot well the shoes are off it's definitely something on that left foot and I just wonder not sure whether it would get a chance to see it again I just wonder whether something went or did the problem come when the top of her left foot hit the ground and then she lost all of her momentum it was a problem what 15 20 meters or so from the finish line up until that point she'd run a beautiful race because the way she accelerated caffeine around that top then was fantastic here we go again let's have a quick look this time we concentrate on the feet for left down the writes down the left's down the writes down all she she did she caught she caught the top of her left book there and that's what I don't know whether it then caused an injury or it just cost him the mention I think it caused an injury because surely if it was just a stumble she still would have finished way further up amongst the medals that chip of that left foot just hit the ground and that caused the problem so potentially a trip and the top of the foot that's called Milla weebo not to get a medal here at these World Championships fifty point four nine seconds in four but deservedly Frances lesser and Phoenix and Phyllis Francis on a lap of Honor well the younger sister also competes in track and field [Music] second at the US Championships this year getting through the brutal qualifying system she's the world champion but what a talent NASA of Bahrain is LaRouche her own national record down with 88 seconds which is set in Rio 50.0 eighth in the semi finals and fifty point two zero six at 19 years old that is a wonderful performance by her and once again and the last few events of these World Championships we have talking points we have drama but of course we have world-class athlete athletics gold m4 France is a personal best run well done to her forty nine point nine two seconds a silver medal for Bahrain masala idli Nasser and Allyson Felix picks up the bronze for the USA another world championship medal for the American felix's gold silver and bronze at the event well she's got nine World Championship medals outdoors before that one so yeah she's obviously 400 yes it is I think she got him one day she and she got the silver in daegu thank you so she's got a full set but let's take nothing away I know we're not let's take nothing away from this woman fifth in Rio last year and she came through and beat them all a really powerful finish she'd been put under pressure by Felix early on because Felix actually caught up that stagger and went too fast in the early stages Frances was coming through and was closing on Miller we both and then as we know the Bahamian and they'll be so disappointed for their young star on the island she just flipped the top of that left foot and all homer mentioned went we don't know definitively whether she suffered an injury but anyway Phyllis Francis did what she needed to do and not only going under 50 seconds but a lifetime vest the biggest performance of her career and she's beaten one of the all-time greats in Allyson Felix into third the Americans are in a great time to sprint so far up and really two medals is that wonderful medal there in the women's 400 meters so you can tell it's 10 o'clock at night though EK time and it is cold because the one athlete only to go under 57 in the major championships final is indicative to the conditions to the issues sure they've been a weebo had yes especially when you bear in mind the quality of the lineup for that final as well it really was of the high as possible order well as we said at the start of the evening it may be wet and cold but there was nothing to dampen our sense of anticipation or excitement ahead of this great night of athletics and it really has delivered ly Hougang gold at last for the perennial runner-up or bronze medalist in the shotput Phyllis Francis here coming through to beat both the pre-race favourites we were all talking about Miller weibo and Allyson Felix and her kampachi producing a fine finish and a lifetime best didn't manage to get among the medals in Rio last year she comes out on top tonight in the Olympic Stadium what about that for hurdles as well k Ron Clement we thought he was closing in on an unprecedented Patrick of World titles would have been his first since Berlin in Oh 9 and it would have been 10 years on from his first world title in Osaka from 2007 the cast and barhom will be the toast of Norway tonight the last we saw of him he had a viking hat on it might have a cheeky beer or two in it by now have a great night of celebration before returning for his medal presentation tomorrow still raining it's that fine rain now it's not quite as hard as it was at the start of the evening but a really really cold night and all credit to the athletes in the three finals we've seen this evening they really have lit up the tracklist and great performances and each evening as you said capping we've had some really really good races and sometimes it's it's been the unexpected athletes have come through to win and surely that's the very essence of why we get so excited about a major championship because it isn't always the favorite it's not always Clement it's not always Felix or Milla weebo another good night [Applause] so that medal ceremony for the women's 400 meters it'll be tomorrow they will be interesting to see for sure named Ella weebo due to line up in the semi-finals of the 200 meters tomorrow [Music] yeah I'll be interesting to see whether what she says officially about that race and also whether she does take a place in the lineups all those 200-meter semi-finals and good that the Koala came through earlier this evening very odd have one man running a solo heat but he did 20/20 and then came through from lane one Steve I bet to book his place in the final I certainly did the crowd really warmed to him I think they thought that he'd been hard done by he had to come out proved himself he did just that on his own in tough conditions then he got lane one again in the next round and then still come through for second place and pumping the air but shows he's doing a determination to prove a point I think more than food that he was in the right and thus he deserved his place in the final and we can confirm the Koala will be in lace Lane six for the children meter final tomorrow night van niekirk who only got through as a fastest loser remember we'll be in Lane three we've thoroughly enjoyed this evening let's have a little recap of the drama that's unfolded over the last couple of hours [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] so let's bring you up to speed with how the medal table looks and that is very very impressive reading if you are an American for gold 5 silver 6 bronze 15 medals in total Wow 8 more than the Kenyans who are also having a fabulous championship Venezuela I've got that gold of course courtesy of you Lamar Rojas in the women's triple jump still just the one solitary gold for Great Britain no parrot is through to the final at the 5000 meters Ugandan have a silver medal bronze medals for the Netherlands definitely skippers will hope to add to that in the 200 well what a great great night it's been li hao gong finally
