    @act-crusader just saw a tweet that said we had finished 4th place five times. No wonder he's emotional

      Aussie girl in the top 3 for high jump. Nobody over at 2.04 right now.

      She's guaranteed a medal. Colour TBD.

          She looks like she's about to collapse with an anxiety attack every time. And the notebook....

            Tbh they all look like they could use a sandwich.

            Russian clears 204. That is probably gold

                                          4 x 400m men's relay.

                                          USA win gold in a season best, but the biggest surprise are the Dutch, who win silver in only their second appearance in this event (1980 being the first). Botswana win Bronze, I think they said in an African record.
