Bronze for Willis and well done to the American who pretry much lead the whole way.<br>
A rough middle section with lots of pushing and elbows

[taniwharugby]

With 200 to go I thought he was getting boxed in, but a superb finish

[Virgil]

<p>Bit of argy bargy in that race.</p>

Did see during race that it looked like he got knocked/ barged and struggled to stay in.

[taniwharugby]

Him and that Forest Gump on his run looking cat were doing a bit of pushing

[RoninWC]

Yeah very clearly traded elbows with the other American, the one with the headband, where Willis had a bit of a stumble looked to very nearly go down.

If that South African 800m runner is a chick then I'm an All Black.

[RoninWC]

Hmmmm... the controversy continues with Semenya winning gold in the Womens 800m.<br>
Can't help but think that, certainly through no fault of her own, she does have a pretty significant advantage over the others in the field.<br>
That hermaphrodite/androgynous higher than a normal womans testosterone.

<p>A cut and paste from Willis' interview</p>
<p> </p>
<blockquote class="ipsBlockquote">
<p> </p>
<p>Willis said the slow pace in the 1500m allowed him to get his <strong>competitive juices flowing </strong>_ he didn't feel like he was in the right mental condition before the race.<br>

<p>I bloody knew it!!!</p>
