Day 4 Live Recaps

Men's 200m Semifinals

Fred Kerley almost looked like he would miss the final after he got left behind on the curve in heat two. But Kerley rallied late to place third in his heat and still get an automatic qualifying spot in 19.95. Christian Coleman won the heat in 19.93, followed by Courtney Lindsey in 19.94. Kenny Bednarek won heat one in 20.02, just ahead of Erriyon Knighton in 20.03

Women's 200m Semifinals

Gabby Thomas looked incredibly smooth in the second semifinal, running q 21.86 to take the victory. The time was the world lead for a matter of minutes before Jamaica's Shericka Jackson ran 21.71 at her country's national championships. Thomas' mark is the second fastest of her career and portends well for the final. Heat one went to Sha'Carri Richardson, running a time of 22.18. High schooler Mia Brahe-Pederson grabbed the final qualifying spot.

Men's 110m Hurdles Semifinals

The big news before the race was the withdrawal of Devon Allen due to injury. Allen was expected to contend for a spot, and potentially a medal, before picking up an injury after the NYC Grand Prix. Cordell Tinch and Daniel Roberts went 1-2 in the second heat with Roberts taking his foot off the accelerator in the final 10 meters. Heat one went to Grant Holloway. Holloway has a bye to the World Championships and doesn't need to run the final.

Women's 800m Final

This race looked like it could go any number of ways and it ended in somewhat unpredictable fashion with Nia Akins kicking down Raevyn Rogers to get the win. Kaela Edwards placed third in 2:00.52 ahead of Sage Hurta-Klecker. There will need to be some standard chasing, however, as neither Rogers or Edwards has the time standard.

Results

1. Nia Akins: 1:59.50

2. Raevyn Rogers: 1:59.83

3. Kaela Edwards: 2:00.52

4. Sage Hurta-Klecker: 2:01.19

5: Charlene Lipsey: 2:01.22

6. Michaela Rose: 2:01.47

7. Sammy Watson: 2:02.07

8. Ajee Wilson: 2:05.88

Men's 800m Final

A physical race ended up going somewhat to form with Bryce Hoppel, Isaiah Harris and Clayton Murphy going 1-2-3. Isaiah Jewett was in the mix until the final 50 meters when both Harris and Murphy went by. Will Sumner was closing fast, but had too much ground to make up. 

Results

1. Bryce Hoppel: 1:46.20

2. Isaiah Harris: 1:46.68

3. Clayton Murphy: 1:46.82

4. Isaiah Jewett: 1:47.02

5: Will Sumner: 1:47.41

6. Derek Holdsworth: 1:47.61

7. Abraham Alvarado: 1:48.85

8. CJ Jones: 1:50.27

Women's 400m Hurdles Final

A thrilling duel down the homestretch developed between Dalilah Muhammad and Shamier Little, with Little inching away to win 53.34 to 53.53. Anna Cockrell placed third and also got the standard that had eluded her thus far this season.

Results

1. Shamier Little: 53.34

2. Dalilah Muhammad: 53.53

3. Anna Cockrell: 54.24

4. Shani'a Bellamy: 55.65

5. Cassandra Tate: 56.09

6. Lauren Hoffman: 56.13

7. Madison Langley-Walker: 56.94

8. Kalia Barber: 57.51

Men's 400m Hurdles Final

Rai Benjamin turned in a magnificent performance in a season for him that hasn't gone smoothly. Benjamin blew away the field to run 46.62, the second-fastest time of his career and the fifth-best time in history. Another edition of Benjamin vs. Karsten Warholm (and possibly Alison Dos Santos who is returning soon from injury) looks to once again be must-watch in Budapest.

CJ Allen and Trevor Bassitt will join Benjamin on the World Championship team.

Results

1. Rai Benjamin: 46.62

2. CJ Allen: 48.18

3. Trevor Bassitt: 48.26

4. Khallifah Rosser: 48.77

5. Taylor McLaughlin: 49.14

6. James Smith: 49.56

7. David Kendziera: 49.74

8. Quivell Jordan-Bacot: 50.73

Men's 5000m Finals

Abdihamid Nur made a big move off a slow pace that paid off, running away with the win in 13:24.37. Nur reeled off laps of 62, 57 and 53 to grind down the field behind him. Paul Chelimo did well to take second with a time of 13:24.90. Sean McGorty placed third in 13:25.98 ahead of Joe Klecker and Cooper Teare. Like the 10,000m, McGorty doesn't have the time standard for the World Championships yet.

Top Finishers

1. Abdihamid Nur: 13:24.37

2. Paul Chelimo: 13:24.90

3. Sean McGorty: 13:25.98

4. Joe Klecker: 13:26.94

5. Cooper Teare: 13:27.02

6. Sam Gilman: 13:27.49

7. Olin Hacker: 13:28.16

8. Ahmed Muhumed: 13:28.61

Women's 200m Final

A year after injury kept her off the U.S. team, Gabby Thomas came back to Hayward Field and reasserted herself atop the women’s 200m podium.

Thomas ran 21.60, .01 faster than her lifetime best and good for the sixth fastest time in history. 

Sha’Carri Richardson was second in 21.94, a personal best, and Kayla White was third with a 22.01. Abby Steiner took fourth in 22.07.

Women's 5000m

Elise Cranny doubled up, taking the 5000m after winning the 10,000m on Thursday. She did it in a similar fashion, using a big kick to gain separation between Alicia Monson and Natosha Rogers. The race was quick enough that all the women ran under the World Championships standard.
