LIVE RESULTS


Women's 100m

Can double Olympic champion Elaine Thompson redeem herself after failing to medal at Worlds? Double silver medalist Marie-Josee Ta Lou will be her biggest challenger.

Ta Lou gets out hard but Thompson reels her in to win, 10.92 to 10.93!


null

Men's 800m

Nijel Amos is probably the favorite here since he's won multiple Diamond League races this summer, but Worlds silver and bronze medalists Kzsczot and Bett are also here

Som takes the field through 400 in 49.61 as Amos runs in second, moves to lead as pacer steps off

On the curve, the medalists are running in 2-3 but Amos is in the front! Gonna be hard to get around him and no one can, he'll win in 1:44.53

Women's 1500m

Jenny Simpson gets another shot at world/Olympic champ Faith Kipyegon!

Pacer Jenny Meadows goes through 400m in 1:01.8

Emily Tuei 2:07.39 for 800m

Sifan Hassan is leader at bell in 3:11.64 with Kipyegon right on here. Simpson is back in eighth, well behind leaders

Hassan tries to hold off Kipyegon, but the Olympic and world champion shows why she is the best with triumphant win here


null

Men's 200m

World champ Ramil Guliyev takes on U.S. teen Noah Lyles, who missed worlds to injury, and USATF champ Ameer Webb

Lyles wins!!!!


null

He told the world he wasn't going to Brussels to lose, and he delivered...


Men's 3K Steeplechase

Can Evan Jager break 8 minutes and set a new American record? He'll get a Worlds rematch with champion Conseslus Kipruto here. No man has broken 8 minutes in the past two years.

Haron Lagat of the U.S. paces through 1K in 2:40.27

Jager and Kipruto lead the field

Jager passes 2K in 5:24.45 with world gold and silver medalists Kipruto and El Bakkali right behind him

Shoot! At the bell, Bakkali and Kipruto go around Jager

Jager looks like he's running out of gas, falls on the final water jump


Kipruto passes Bakkali only in the final meters for the win, while Jager picks himself up and sprints in to claim third


null

Women's 400m

Reigning Olympic champion Shaunae Miller-Uibo will try to get some of her mojo back after failing to medal at the World Champs. She is trending upwards after capturing the Diamond League crown in the 200m in Zurich last week.

On the homestretch, it's Shaunae and Salwa Eid Naser, who beat her at Worlds for a medal!

But Shaunae Miller-Uibo will hold her off in 49.46, a new world leading time, personal best and Bahamian national record!


Naser sets a new Bahraini national record with her 49.88 second place run. It's also sne of the fastest times in world history for a U20 athlete.



null

Men's 110m Hurdles

Aries Merritt and Devon Allen are here to rep Team USA! It would be big if either of the Americans can take home the win here, as this year's World Championships were the first in a long time that no American was able to medal in the event. Merritt, the world record holder, has won several Diamond League events this year and has a strong shot to win here.

Merritt gets out well but world silver medalist Sergey Shubenkov will win! The Russian was one of the few authorized neutral athletes to earn a medal in London.


null

Women's 5K

Can anyone take down Hellen Obiri, who completely destroyed 10K world record holder Almaz Ayana at the worlds 5K? I don't think so.

Australian steeplechaser Genevieve LaCaze is pacing here, looks like 2:55 through 1K according to the IAAF live results.

Now Obiri is taking over with fellow Kenyans Beatrice Chepkoech (third at worlds steeplechase) and Margaret Kipkemboi in tow. Kipkemboi is one of the few women in the world to defeat Obiri this year, placing third to Obiri's fourth in the Birmingham 3K a few weeks ago.

Obiri hits splits of 5:50.46 through 2K, 8:41.96 through 3K

The top three is now Obiri, Caroline Kipkirui, Kipkemboi, Lilian Rengeruk, Chepkoech

Obiri passes 4K in 11:37.88, she and Kipkirui are starting to separate themselves...but wait Kipkirui takes the lead!!!

No, Obiri is back in front and she will take the win in 14:25.88!


null

Men's Shot Put

Wow, what an upset! American Darrell Hill unleashes a huge personal best and meeting record of 22.44m on his final attempt to take the win from reigning Olympian champion Ryan Crouser. Tough luck for Crouser, who was looking forward to a nice payday after finishing just sixth at worlds this year. Joe Kovacs completes the U.S. sweep in third. 


24-year-old Hill made his first world team this summer, but placed just 11th in London. His best effort prior to today was just 21.91m.


null

Women's 400m Hurdles

Dalilah Muhammad makes up the stagger halfway! Olympic champ looks good but here comes Zuzana! Muhammad holds off Zuzana in 53.89! Ashley Spencer of the U.S. takes third.


null

Women's Long Jump

The three world medalists do not do very well here, as the champion's check goes to Ivana Spanovic, who was fourth in London.

World champion Brittney Reese is fifth, silver medalist Darya Klishina is seventh and bronze medalist Tianna Bartoletta takes fourth.
