    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....

              Yeah mate. Between Olympics, World Champs and other comps, they have found themselves in 4th a fair bit.

              The emotion really spilling over with Mills, Ingles, Goorj.

                                        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.
