:00:12. > :00:18.Welcome to BBC Two viewers who have joined our coverage. We are a few
:00:19. > :00:23.minutes away from the last event of the heptathlon, the 800 metres. Kata
:00:24. > :00:31.Rita -- Katarina Johnson-Thompson needs the run of her career. It is
:00:32. > :00:36.possible. On BBC One we will stay here to see this race so Poldark
:00:37. > :00:44.will follow on BBC One in five minutes. Athletics will continue on
:00:45. > :00:54.BBC Two. Let's join Steve Cram. Thank you. Let's look at the full
:00:55. > :01:00.start list. She's in fifth place. Vetter has had a brilliant
:01:01. > :01:08.competition. There's not much to choose between Vetter and Schafer.
:01:09. > :01:14.Four tenths of a second for Vetter to get ahead of Schafer. K J D would
:01:15. > :01:23.have to do something nobody has ever done before. -- KJ T.
:01:24. > :01:46.These are the athletes in descending order. Look at the personal best.
:01:47. > :01:55.KJT's personal-best is 2.0 six. The fastest ever heptathlon I can find
:01:56. > :02:03.in the final was two point 05. Jess has run 2.0 seven. She would have to
:02:04. > :02:09.go to war three seconds quicker to put any pressure at all on Vetter,
:02:10. > :02:16.who is not a good 800 metres runner. Rodriguez is in fourth place. She
:02:17. > :02:23.has a personal best of 2.12. We hope Kat can run quick enough to go into
:02:24. > :02:27.fourth. Vetter and Schafer look to be too distant, but, and it's a
:02:28. > :02:37.massive but, the slimmest of chances. Vetter and Chef -- Vetter
:02:38. > :02:43.and Schafer no medal is theirs. Thiam has been supreme, the Olympic
:02:44. > :02:48.champion. Nothing spectacular from the first event. Even that hurdles
:02:49. > :02:53.yesterday wasn't her best, but she's been solid all the way through and
:02:54. > :03:00.that high jump, oh dear, how much that has cost Katarina
:03:01. > :03:09.Johnson-Thompson. The final event of the heptathlon, the 800 metres. What
:03:10. > :03:13.does a coach say? There isn't any other instruction than just run as
:03:14. > :03:20.hard as you can. To do that in the 800, you have to be sensible. It's
:03:21. > :03:25.an interesting thought. I asked Jessica to be sensible another of
:03:26. > :03:37.times and the best of 2.07 summit she ran 59 seconds for the first
:03:38. > :03:45.400! Salman-Rath has run 28.75 for the first 200. To put that into
:03:46. > :03:52.context, that's 56 at the bell, two laps of that. 1.52? I don't think
:03:53. > :03:59.they will run 1.52 so rhythm is important. She has to run a big
:04:00. > :04:02.personal-best. Win this race, Johnson-Thompson, with the crowd
:04:03. > :04:12.behind her. She can't affect what happens behind her. The others have
:04:13. > :04:21.16 or 16 seconds. -- 16 or 17 seconds. Look at Rodriguez. She has
:04:22. > :04:26.a big gap between herself, she's in fourth place, and she's committed
:04:27. > :04:30.herself massively. She's gone with it. Schafer wants to put some
:04:31. > :04:35.distance between herself and Vetter so she can get silver. Katarina
:04:36. > :04:42.Johnson-Thompson responding. Has she got anything for the last 200
:04:43. > :04:49.metres? The German is out in front. Can she raise her game? She's giving
:04:50. > :04:55.it a go. The others are way too close for her to get a medal.
:04:56. > :05:00.Salman-Rath still leading. Katarina Johnson-Thompson trying to chase her
:05:01. > :05:05.home, doing her best, giving everything. Rodriguez is fading. We
:05:06. > :05:14.look for the battle behind. Watch the clock. It's going to be about
:05:15. > :05:22.2.07. Katarina Johnson-Thompson will be close to a personal best. Here
:05:23. > :05:30.they come behind. Vetter crosses the line in about 2.19. About 12
:05:31. > :05:35.seconds. Sadly it won't be enough to affect the medals. It means Schafer
:05:36. > :05:41.will move into the silver medal position. I don't know whether or
:05:42. > :05:49.not Rodriguez has moved up... He's shaking her head. Schafer will get
:05:50. > :05:55.bronze. Thiam the gold-medallist. Not always across the line first,
:05:56. > :05:59.but another supreme competition from the Olympic champion. A case of what
:06:00. > :06:07.might have been for Katarina Johnson-Thompson. (STUDIO) she gave
:06:08. > :06:17.it everything in that 800 metres, but it was just too big a gap for
:06:18. > :06:20.her. 2.07. That's it for the athletics on BBC One, time for
:06:21. > :06:41.Poldark. The athletics is on BBC Two. Join us on BBC Two.
:06:42. > :06:50.The Olympic Stadium in the Queen Elizabeth Park as night falls and
:06:51. > :06:56.the athletics programme for Day three is drawing to a close. Two
:06:57. > :07:02.days of events for the heptathlon have come to an end. Denise and Jess
:07:03. > :07:07.are alongside me, you both know the motion that goes through when you've
:07:08. > :07:11.put so much into seven events. This is the first time you've seen a
:07:12. > :07:17.major championship since retirement where you want the one everyone is
:07:18. > :07:21.hugging! I know exactly how it feels and you're physically exhausted,
:07:22. > :07:29.mentally drained. This is such a nice moment, to share it with the
:07:30. > :07:34.girls. You've got through the two days of gruelling competition. It's
:07:35. > :07:39.an amazing feeling and 40 amp to become well champion at the age she
:07:40. > :07:47.is, it's incredible. -- and four Thiam. She's a champion. She's had
:07:48. > :07:51.an incredible two years from 11 thin the World Championships in 2015,
:07:52. > :07:57.Olympic champion a year later and now well champion. There is some
:07:58. > :08:02.great talent bursting through and it promising -- aid promises to be an
:08:03. > :08:11.exciting few years ahead. She has so much potential to come. She hasn't
:08:12. > :08:16.tapped into all her ability yet. To have Carolin Schafer come through
:08:17. > :08:17.the way she has, "Months in the last two years, it bodes well for the
:08:18. > :08:28.event. Katarina Johnson-Thompson will be
:08:29. > :08:33.reflecting on the two days. She will know exactly what she's done wrong,
:08:34. > :08:37.exactly where she could have picked up more points and exactly what
:08:38. > :08:41.she's got to do if she wants to get these seven events together. She has
:08:42. > :08:47.the talent, she has the potential to get onto the rostrum. It's
:08:48. > :08:54.incredibly frustrating. I know Kat, she's run, she'll be thinking, what
:08:55. > :09:01.is it? Whiny again? -- wide me again. People will ask what if she
:09:02. > :09:10.could have got on the rostrum. Incredible javelin. Kat has to think
:09:11. > :09:16.long and hard about her progression. Everyone is moving forward and she's
:09:17. > :09:21.just standing still a little bit. We know she's got fantastic talent, but
:09:22. > :09:26.for the high jump where would she have placed? What was her potential
:09:27. > :09:32.now we know the results? Where could she have placed? Definitely a
:09:33. > :09:38.medallist. I wouldn't say gold, but maybe bronze or silver. She has
:09:39. > :09:42.changed, she's moved from Britain to France so there's a lot of
:09:43. > :09:47.information to ingest in the last six or seven months. A lot of
:09:48. > :09:52.technical changes. She's travelling two welds at the moment. I am
:09:53. > :09:57.confident with another good winter behind her, the confidence is clear
:09:58. > :10:01.that it's improving because the second day wasn't bad. Her second
:10:02. > :10:05.day was good, but it's a tough event, even when you're successful
:10:06. > :10:12.it's tough and it can grind you down. I worry for Kat because she's
:10:13. > :10:17.had so many setbacks. She keeps coming back, but the high jump she
:10:18. > :10:23.can work on, but the throwing and some of the other areas she needs to
:10:24. > :10:27.get them right to be on the podium. It's not my School of thought that
:10:28. > :10:31.you only focus on your strengths. You need to address those
:10:32. > :10:36.weaknesses. Her javelin was much better, but the shot, the model
:10:37. > :10:41.still is in there. You have to walk in the circle and trust your
:10:42. > :10:49.technique and she is not there yet. Her best events really let her down,
:10:50. > :10:53.I think. To see her happy with 6.56, it's not like Kat and normally she'd
:10:54. > :11:04.be disappointed. These scenes are lovely. The points are in. Steve,
:11:05. > :11:08.take us through the final result. It was a busy two days for the
:11:09. > :11:14.heptathlete is culminating in that 800 metres. It didn't go smoothly
:11:15. > :11:19.for Katarina Johnson-Thompson, as we'd hoped. The high jump this time
:11:20. > :11:28.was what let her down. Here are the final results. Johnson-Thompson, if
:11:29. > :11:33.she had gone clear at 1.95 in the high jump, which she did comfortably
:11:34. > :11:37.last year, she would have been right behind Nafi Thiam chasing the gold
:11:38. > :11:47.medal. The almost 200 points she lost in the high jump cost her dear.
:11:48. > :11:52.The athlete at the top, Thiam, world champion.
:11:53. > :12:03.This is a look back at the pole vault that took place a few moments
:12:04. > :12:08.ago. Ekaterini Stefanidi, the Olympic champion. Unbeaten in 2017.
:12:09. > :12:16.She's been flawless again this evening. 4.82. She is so consistent.
:12:17. > :12:22.Not her best clearance, a fair rattle, but the bar stayed aloft.
:12:23. > :12:27.She just finds a way of winning. She is not necessarily the best on
:12:28. > :12:33.paper, but she wins time and time again because of her consistency. As
:12:34. > :12:42.it turns out, she didn't know it at the time, but that was the gold
:12:43. > :12:52.medal winning jump. Morris passed at 4.80 nine. -- 4.89. She adds another
:12:53. > :12:56.gold medal to her outstanding collection. Sandi Morris had to
:12:57. > :13:03.settle for silver in Rio and same result here. She had to go clear
:13:04. > :13:15.here at 4.89. She got a bit sideways on that. Silver for Morris.
:13:16. > :13:32.That was all a few moments ago. 4.91, the bar has been raised to.
:13:33. > :13:43.The championship record is 5.01. 4.91. Wow! That is a world leading
:13:44. > :13:51.jump and it underlines her dominance. Icing on the cake. She's
:13:52. > :13:56.already won. That's a really impressive jump. No one really
:13:57. > :14:03.doubted it. The world leading jump so far was hers at 4.80 five. Gold,
:14:04. > :14:17.on top of the world in every sense. Ekaterini Stefanidi. A failure at
:14:18. > :14:23.4.89 but then 4.91. A fist pump from her coach. Gold for Greece. It's the
:14:24. > :14:30.kind of consistency that brings medals. A hug from Sandi Morris in
:14:31. > :14:43.silver. It's all getting rather busy now.
:14:44. > :14:48.It's time for the 800 men. Three very tough semifinal is coming up.
:14:49. > :14:53.Adam Kszczot Boland, the two-time European champion. Polish 1500
:14:54. > :15:02.champion. Our 1500 champion, Elliot Giles, but he's better at 800. He
:15:03. > :15:08.will know how tough the task is with only two to qualify. Nijel Amos, one
:15:09. > :15:12.of the favourites for the gold-medal, back to the sort of form
:15:13. > :15:17.that saw him chase home David Rudisha in this stadium in 2012.
:15:18. > :15:27.Isaiah Harris of the United States. The Americans have three very good
:15:28. > :15:28.runners in the semifinals. Rotich. Ferguson Cheruiyot Rotich. Named
:15:29. > :15:48.after Alex Ferguson. Guy Learmonth, a month ago you might
:15:49. > :15:52.not think he was going to be here, because of the season he was having.
:15:53. > :16:02.He went to the British Championship, came in the top two, got the
:16:03. > :16:08.qualifying time and got through. And so did Elliott Giles. The other we
:16:09. > :16:13.haven't seen in Kevin Lopez. Top two, two fastest through to the
:16:14. > :16:25.final. Kyle Langford goes in the next one. They will want to have
:16:26. > :16:31.somebody take it up quickly with Amos in this. Ayouni has gone
:16:32. > :16:37.quickest through the first 150 metres. Amos now coached by Mark
:16:38. > :16:45.Rowland and he will want to control this. Rotich. A bit of pushing and
:16:46. > :16:53.shoving. It is slower than they wanted. It is the Kenyan Rotich in
:16:54. > :16:58.the front. It almost has to slow down. This is a difficult task for
:16:59. > :17:02.the two British athletes. You want them to get amongst them. Get as
:17:03. > :17:06.high as they can and hope the basis fast enough. The two qualifiers will
:17:07. > :17:15.be very difficult to beat. The first two and two fastest losers. 52 for
:17:16. > :17:21.the opening lap and Amos following Rotich. Giles is in a good position.
:17:22. > :17:32.Behind them Learmonth, who has been running well. Harris coming out
:17:33. > :17:46.wide. Rotich is pushing and shoving and Amos pushes out. Learmonth gets
:17:47. > :17:56.himself out. The Poll striking for home. Two Brits in fourth and fifth.
:17:57. > :18:13.The Poll is doing what he does best. He wins it. Amos second. I don't
:18:14. > :18:20.think Learmonth obviously technically has still got an
:18:21. > :18:30.opportunity. Brendan, you know, when they run 53 or 52.95, this guy puts
:18:31. > :18:35.himself in the right place. Learmonth was fifth in the end.
:18:36. > :18:41.They're both out. Fifth and sixth. You look at your semi and you see
:18:42. > :18:51.how tough it was, they did well in the heats. I don't know what else do
:18:52. > :19:02.you do. You're right. Rotich there Amos on the outside of him. Amos is
:19:03. > :19:23.running into the outer lane. Amos is a real
:19:24. > :19:29.talent. The two British runners are doing well. Moving into fifth and
:19:30. > :19:42.sixth. But the pace wasn't fast enough.
:19:43. > :19:59.I would be surprised if any other than the top two will qualify.
:20:00. > :20:30.Here are the times. Rotich will have an anxious wait. Kszczot and Amos
:20:31. > :20:37.safely through. The time of 1. 46. 49 for Rotich looks vulnerable. Tom
:20:38. > :20:42.Walsh of New Zealand is having a good competition here. Here is a
:20:43. > :20:51.look back to what he did in the third round. He is in the lead with
:20:52. > :21:02.21.64. Used to work 30 hours a week as a body builder. That was a slight
:21:03. > :21:12.improvement. The Americans at the moment, Kovacs and Crouser sitting
:21:13. > :21:18.behind the Kiwi. Times it perfectly. Really good example of rotational
:21:19. > :21:32.shot put technique there from Tom Walsh. He is only 1.85 tall. Very
:21:33. > :21:39.fast, very powerful. And this is Kovacs's response in that round
:21:40. > :21:45.three. Another big effort from him. Suffered with a groin injury all
:21:46. > :21:50.year, the raivening world champion -- reigning world champion. He is
:21:51. > :21:56.down on what he can do. Much quicker, more athletic in many ways.
:21:57. > :22:03.But it is down on Walsh's throw. He is in the silver medal position at
:22:04. > :22:05.the moment. That was a throw of 21.66. Very close for the medals.
:22:06. > :22:20.Three throws remaining. This is the second semi-final. And
:22:21. > :22:29.Kupers does not start. That is to the advantage of others. Kupers
:22:30. > :22:33.would have been challenging. The others have a greater chance to go
:22:34. > :22:42.through as one of the automatic qualifiers. Kyle Langford waits for
:22:43. > :22:46.his introduction. He knows he rode his luck to come through. Can he
:22:47. > :22:50.find something, and get himself closer to the mix with a couple of
:22:51. > :22:55.hundred metres to go? He is going to find something special to go
:22:56. > :23:10.through. But he has given himself a chance.
:23:11. > :23:25.The Americans have three runners through. What a good run from
:23:26. > :23:34.Kszczot. Lewandowski has also been a great strength for Polish middle
:23:35. > :23:41.distance running. Windle third at the US Championships and with the
:23:42. > :23:42.pedigree to move through here. Brandon McBride, the Canadian
:23:43. > :23:56.champion was second in Monaco. Korir, no David Rudisha. But this
:23:57. > :24:21.man for Kenya, what a talent he is. Gakeme of Burundi. Alzofairi, the
:24:22. > :24:34.new Asian champion. And then Kyle Langford waits for the noise of
:24:35. > :24:40.60,000. This track brought his personal best in the Diamond League
:24:41. > :24:43.meeting last month and he will need something beyond that go through. To
:24:44. > :24:49.give himself a chance and get himself close. Not rely on a kick
:24:50. > :24:55.finish. Which would have served him well in years past as a junior. But
:24:56. > :25:05.this a far bigger stage. The second semi-final in the men's 800 metres.
:25:06. > :25:10.Korir, the 22-year-old talent can afford to sit at the back and let
:25:11. > :25:15.the others watch. Just seven going. Kupers is missing. Two places and
:25:16. > :25:22.two fastest losers and there is a chance to be a fastest loser, it
:25:23. > :25:26.wasn't a fast first semi-final. A new stage for Langford. He has also
:25:27. > :25:33.got the biggest support he will ever get. Now the key to this race is to
:25:34. > :25:40.keep going at this sort of pace. They know 1. 46 is a time all they
:25:41. > :25:46.can run faster than. There is some talent around Langford. He looks
:25:47. > :25:50.good. We saw Kszczot steal this one and his team mate Lewandowski
:25:51. > :25:55.getting ready. This is an important part of race for Kyle. He has got to
:25:56. > :26:02.stick to his task. He has some rare talent around him. He has to hold it
:26:03. > :26:13.there and let's hope he can do that. The crowd try and lift him. Kyle
:26:14. > :26:18.Langford digging in. But Lewandowski coming past him. He is trying to get
:26:19. > :26:25.back, but ahead of them a few paces ahead McBride and Korir. Two to go
:26:26. > :26:32.through and the rest looking for fastest losers placer. Korir is
:26:33. > :26:39.starting to struggle a bit. His head is bobbing as Lewandowski hunts him
:26:40. > :26:42.down. Korir is in trouble. Lewandowski chasing and Kyle
:26:43. > :26:48.Langford gets second place and goes through to the World Championship
:26:49. > :26:53.final! He has done it. He has run it. What happened to Korir? That is
:26:54. > :26:57.not a concern for Kyle Langford. Because he has judged so many races
:26:58. > :27:03.in the past perhaps not so wisely. But that one was judged perfectly
:27:04. > :27:11.and Kyle Langford's record is a place in the final. Well, a truly
:27:12. > :27:15.deserved final spot. The men's 800 metres, one of Britain's favourite
:27:16. > :27:19.events and it is great to know we will be represented in the final. I
:27:20. > :27:24.don't like the finals going out without British athletes. I wouldn't
:27:25. > :27:28.have liked the men's 800 without a British athlete. When he was
:27:29. > :27:33.introduced there was a roar. But there was such a roar in the home
:27:34. > :27:40.straight. It wasn't for McBride, who has run famously. Korir, we expected
:27:41. > :27:45.so much from him and in the finishing straight he is propelled
:27:46. > :27:50.by the fact he is in the straight and chasing down Lewandowski and
:27:51. > :27:54.Korir. He has been a junior winner and this is the best race he has run
:27:55. > :28:00.in his life. Second place in the semi-final and we are looking at
:28:01. > :28:04.some athletes ahead of him who should have been ahead of him. But
:28:05. > :28:08.there was a switch and another gear for Kyle Langford and a performance,
:28:09. > :28:12.I'm delighted to see the young man, 21 years of age, and that roar, he
:28:13. > :28:18.will never hear the like of that again. This was a fantastic
:28:19. > :28:23.performance. Great finishing speed. Holding his form, holding his style
:28:24. > :28:28.and he made 60,000 people very, very happy. A great performance by the
:28:29. > :28:34.young man. A controlled performance in the finishing straight. Korir,
:28:35. > :28:38.who promised such a lot, had nothing left in that finishing drive.
:28:39. > :28:45.McBride was comfortable. Langford into the time. Well done, Kyle.
:28:46. > :28:51.Brilliant. He said he was going to run his heart out and he did that
:28:52. > :28:55.and he will go through to the final. Brendan saying brilliant, I think we
:28:56. > :29:06.all echo that. Describe that last hundred metres for you. Well, I feel
:29:07. > :29:13.a bit shattered, I was thinking stay down, good contention, see what p
:29:14. > :29:19.happens. I was feeling good. But I got a bit cramped up again. With the
:29:20. > :29:23.group. And... Got to the last hundred I felt good and me and John
:29:24. > :29:27.it was before, we were doing a drill with cones and it was remember the
:29:28. > :29:33.drills, keep your knees up and I did it. I brushed up on the the mistakes
:29:34. > :29:40.yesterday and showed I'm still learning. I had a bad run yesterday.
:29:41. > :29:44.Better today. What about the realise that yourself a World Championship
:29:45. > :29:48.finalist in London? It is my goal to get into this final. From the start
:29:49. > :29:55.of season. It has been rocky. Burr I'm here now and -- but I'm here
:29:56. > :30:00.now. Well done. Thank you. What a run and Kyle Langford will go
:30:01. > :30:09.through to the final. Brandon McBride ran an impressive race. It
:30:10. > :30:11.is not all over for Korir. He might be in the final, because he is one
:30:12. > :30:25.of two fastest losers as it stands. Just a reflection on that
:30:26. > :30:29.heptathlon. This is Belgian's first gold medal in the World
:30:30. > :30:35.Championships. It's taken a long time, they've had some great
:30:36. > :30:38.athletes, but Nafi Thiam wins their first gold medal. Katarina
:30:39. > :30:43.Johnson-Thompson in fifth place and cheese chat -- chatting to fill.
:30:44. > :30:48.Fifth place in the world is a tremendous thing normally. But with
:30:49. > :30:52.the talent you've got and the kind of athlete you are and the kind of
:30:53. > :30:57.high jump you could have achieved, it's what might have been. It always
:30:58. > :31:01.seems to be that way with me. I've got a lot of talent and I feel like
:31:02. > :31:08.one of these days it will happen for me. I knew it was always going to be
:31:09. > :31:13.difficult bouncing back. I feel like I've done a good job trying to find
:31:14. > :31:18.myself and now I feel a bit defeatist. I've tried to change my
:31:19. > :31:23.attitude and I feel like I came back and showed that even though I had a
:31:24. > :31:27.difficult time in the second event I'm a fighter. You had a stellar 200
:31:28. > :31:32.metres and then released wrong second day. Maybe long jump you
:31:33. > :31:37.could have found more, but generally a really good second day. The first
:31:38. > :31:44.time I've ever thrown over 40 in the javelin three times in a row. 800, I
:31:45. > :31:48.haven't had a time like that since Moscow in 2013 so I'm happy with
:31:49. > :31:53.that. The long jump is solid but I know I'm better than that. Denise
:31:54. > :31:59.Lewis talking about the big change you made going from Britain to front
:32:00. > :32:02.and taking in that information, technical changes. Not only the
:32:03. > :32:07.mental attitude but the technical side as well, getting it right is
:32:08. > :32:17.gay. It's been stripped down, my mental attitude. Bas macro getting
:32:18. > :32:23.it right is key. London 2017I wanted it to come together, but I feel
:32:24. > :32:27.positive for the future. We appreciate you talking to us. All
:32:28. > :32:35.the best. I hope she can take something from
:32:36. > :32:41.this. One or two shocks already in the 800 metres. Kyle Langford into
:32:42. > :32:45.the final is the best shot. This has Donavan Brazier, one of my favourite
:32:46. > :32:57.athletes to watch at the moment. Kipyegon Bett, the world junior jab
:32:58. > :33:05.before. Bosse will be a danger. Aman not in the best of form. Andre is a
:33:06. > :33:14.good runner. He was fourth in the world junior Championships in 2014.
:33:15. > :33:19.This guy broke the United States junior record which belonged to the
:33:20. > :33:26.great Jim Ryan. He's been under 1.44 this year. A really nice looking
:33:27. > :33:33.runner. Mohamed Aman, world champion in Moscow in 2013. World Indoor
:33:34. > :33:42.Championships on two occasions as well. Michal Rozmys.
:33:43. > :33:55.Let's have a look at the introduction for peer Ambrose Boss.
:33:56. > :33:58.A bit of a character. Watch this. -- Pierre-Ambroise Bosse. That's his
:33:59. > :34:16.own tribute, that's nice. Here we go. This is the last of the
:34:17. > :34:23.semifinals. Two fastest losers. 1:45.90 three. One of the preevent
:34:24. > :34:28.favourites for tenure, will he go out? It will depend on the pace they
:34:29. > :34:34.set. None of these are natural frontrunners. Bosse will want to sit
:34:35. > :34:40.there. Bett has gone to the front. It's what happens from here. If they
:34:41. > :34:46.go to slow from the next 300 metres, the fast time will go and they have
:34:47. > :34:51.slowed. 24 seconds and then they slowed. The last heat is an
:34:52. > :35:00.advantage because you know what to do. They are capable of 1.45. Four
:35:01. > :35:07.could qualify from here. Bosse on the outside. A genie and hasn't
:35:08. > :35:10.automatically qualified in the men's 800 metres yet and that's a
:35:11. > :35:25.surprise. -- a Kenyan. I'm a bit worried for brazier. Bosse
:35:26. > :35:30.is in good form after some injury problems. Have they got enough to
:35:31. > :35:38.kick? Where is brazier going? Looking in trouble. He's such a
:35:39. > :35:44.talent. Bett kicks from the fund. Aman finds something. It's all about
:35:45. > :35:55.the clock. Donavan Brazier with a terrible run. Bosse may have done
:35:56. > :36:06.enough. We may have all four. We'll just watch the clock. Kipyegon Bett
:36:07. > :36:09.may have just made sure that his two team-mates, Ferguson and Emanuel
:36:10. > :36:13.career have not made it through to the final by going quickly.
:36:14. > :36:19.Lewandowski will be hanging onto the next time. Bosse and Andre, third
:36:20. > :36:29.and fourth here, we'll go through to the final. That's a shock. Brazier
:36:30. > :36:35.has gone. Cheruiyot has gone. Correa has gone. It's opened up. It has
:36:36. > :36:41.opened up. Some athletes you expected to be on the rostrum aren't
:36:42. > :36:48.even in the final. Bett is the only Kenyan in the final. He wasn't going
:36:49. > :36:54.to be beaten. Aman of Ethiopian has been struggling with his form, with
:36:55. > :37:00.everything. Bosse keeping to the task. The Brazilian athlete coming
:37:01. > :37:06.through as well. Brazier out of it. Bett looks good and strong. Aman
:37:07. > :37:11.always looks under pressure. Bosse has done well to get back. Andre
:37:12. > :37:14.from Brazil has come through. The good news is there's one Kenyan in
:37:15. > :37:21.the final, there's always a Kenyan in the final of the men's 800
:37:22. > :37:26.metres! And a Brit in the final. We can look forward to the men's 800
:37:27. > :37:37.metres. Bosse and Andre, fastest qualifiers. That's the event leader
:37:38. > :37:44.in the shot put final, Tom Walsh. Just three throws remaining in the
:37:45. > :37:52.final round. Stipe Zunic of Croatia is guaranteed a bronze medal. Can he
:37:53. > :37:57.improve? Kovacs is ahead of him. It's not going to threaten. I think
:37:58. > :38:05.he might have fouled. He looks pleased with that. The Croatian is
:38:06. > :38:11.the national record-holder from earlier this year. A former world
:38:12. > :38:18.junior kick box champion so he can do what he likes! Nobody will stop
:38:19. > :38:27.him. He moved to athletics in 2008. He tried javelin and then shot put.
:38:28. > :38:34.Zoo Nick, bronze medal. Slightly surprisingly. Crouser probably the
:38:35. > :38:41.biggest upset so far. He's in sixth place. His competition is over. His
:38:42. > :38:46.best of the evening was 21.20. Last chance to challenge the lead of Tom
:38:47. > :39:01.Walsh for Joe Kovacs. Massive! But it's a red flag. He doesn't like it.
:39:02. > :39:08.He's not happy. The American reigning champion. We need to see
:39:09. > :39:12.this. I'm sure the man with the red flag is right. It's just an
:39:13. > :39:18.emotional response. He hit the top of the stock board. Not in the
:39:19. > :39:26.recovery but during the throw. That's as close as it gets. Over 22
:39:27. > :39:30.metres. Joe Kovacs has to settle for silver. What a dramatic end to the
:39:31. > :39:37.competition. He's really not happy, but it was a foul. I wouldn't like
:39:38. > :39:44.to tell him! Shall I pop down and have a word? Here is the champion of
:39:45. > :39:54.the world. Bronze medal last year at the Olympics. A brilliant series. He
:39:55. > :40:04.left his best until last as well. What an excellent finish.
:40:05. > :40:20.Congratulations from Kovacs. What a victory that is. A surprise victory.
:40:21. > :40:23.22.03. Bronze last year. Gold ahead of two highly fancied Americans.
:40:24. > :40:31.America have been so dominant in this event in the past. Joe Kovacs,
:40:32. > :40:36.Reese Hoffa, Adam Nelson, CJ Hunter. A long list of American world
:40:37. > :40:40.champions. But not good enough today. Tom Walsh of New Zealand
:40:41. > :40:52.finishing off with his best of the evening. A gold medal. Kovacs, a
:40:53. > :40:58.controversial end. He had to settle for silver. I didn't think he would
:40:59. > :41:09.accept it at one point. It was a long effort, 21.66. Nice to see a
:41:10. > :41:13.New Zealander, a member of the Commonwealth, winning a gold medal.
:41:14. > :41:24.Commonwealth Games in Australia next so he won't have far to travel.
:41:25. > :41:32.Well, great gold medal for New Zealand. Where is the gold medal
:41:33. > :41:36.going in this 800 metres? This was the result of the last semifinal.
:41:37. > :41:40.Donavan Brazier, I'm told his shoelaces were undone all the way
:41:41. > :41:51.through. That was a surprising performance from the talented
:41:52. > :41:57.American. It means that Britain's Kyle Langford, 21 years old, has
:41:58. > :42:01.made it through to the final. Amos is the favourite, but who knows what
:42:02. > :42:06.might happen. (STUDIO) Kyle Langford's parents run
:42:07. > :42:14.a Chipi. If you go in tomorrow, you might get an extra large portion of
:42:15. > :42:20.chips with your fish! This music signals that it's time to get out of
:42:21. > :42:27.here. At 9:50pm, the fastest woman in the world will be crowned. Let's
:42:28. > :42:43.have a look at the eight contenders after the three semifinals.
:42:44. > :42:59.Barry Jose Ta Lou, 10.87. -- marry Jose Ta Lou.
:43:00. > :43:13.As expected, Thompson easing back. What about Sam Cross?
:43:14. > :43:41.Elaine Thompson of Jamaica is the outstanding candidate. Those trying
:43:42. > :43:46.to beat her are two athletes from Trinidad and Tobago and two from the
:43:47. > :43:54.Ivory Coast. Dafne Schippers of Europe holding up the European flag.
:43:55. > :44:00.It's interesting how the global swing in sprinting is happening. Who
:44:01. > :44:03.can beat Elaine Thompson? Her effortless style, Michael, and the
:44:04. > :44:10.way she's cruised through the heats and semifinals she looks unbeatable.
:44:11. > :44:14.Looks impressive. Marie-Josee Ta Lou has looked very good this year.
:44:15. > :44:19.She's been very consistent. She will be quick out of the blocks. She's in
:44:20. > :44:27.lame four. Elaine Thompson has most of the big names, Tori Bowie being
:44:28. > :44:29.the biggest, to her right. We could see a situation like Justin Gatlin
:44:30. > :44:33.last night where the surprise comes from the far side of the track. Tori
:44:34. > :44:39.Bowie is running great and she will have something to say. Elaine
:44:40. > :44:44.Thompson, it's her race to lose and she executes pretty well. I haven't
:44:45. > :44:50.seen her put a foot wrong in these championships. She does what is
:44:51. > :44:53.expected. She has that very jovial, relaxed mindset and emotional state
:44:54. > :45:02.before she gets on the blocks and then it's all business.
:45:03. > :45:17.It is Jamaican independence day and I think Thomas is head
:45:18. > :45:26.and shoulders over everyone. I think she could give a good race. It is
:45:27. > :45:32.the big walk on. Are you a fan of the showbiz entrance. I do like
:45:33. > :45:37.watching them. But I don't know how much I like doing them. Baptiste
:45:38. > :45:50.giving it some. She is enjoying that. A lovely smile and she is
:45:51. > :45:59.milking that. Tori Bowie. She's gone. I'm just so nervous when I
:46:00. > :46:12.come out. I don't want to smile. No smile from her!
:46:13. > :46:21.Ahye always likes some show business. Santos of Brazil. She has
:46:22. > :46:29.had a great Championships. A huge personal best. We will have to watch
:46:30. > :46:36.for her as well. They just want to get to the start line. They want to
:46:37. > :46:42.check their blocks and get into the zone. What can this girl do, she has
:46:43. > :46:49.an electric start. Can she hold her form. I think she can. She held it
:46:50. > :46:56.at the end. But it will be difficult against this woman, she will be
:46:57. > :47:03.coming. So many contrasting styles and ways to run the event. She does
:47:04. > :47:08.it the best in terms of style and two contrasting style, Ta Lou and
:47:09. > :47:12.Schippers. And Schippers, the way she has run through the
:47:13. > :47:16.championship, Michael. She Schippers has been laboured and has not been
:47:17. > :47:21.sharp. Maybe she has got race sharp leading into the final. We will see.
:47:22. > :47:28.She is out of blocks, Ta Lou to the left. Ta Lou quick and fluid and
:47:29. > :47:34.Schippers starting to labour and get tight in her shoulders and she slows
:47:35. > :47:41.down quicker than Ta Lou. But again Ta Lou, this is what we are going to
:47:42. > :47:46.see in the final. Got great drive phase, gets a great start. Much more
:47:47. > :47:50.efficient. Denise talked about whether she can hold that. She did
:47:51. > :47:55.in the semi-final. She started to open the gap. We will see if she can
:47:56. > :48:01.do it against the others in the final. Elaine Thompson who, has the
:48:02. > :48:04.most natural, beautiful, if you want to copy any style in this
:48:05. > :48:11.Championship, you would go for her wouldn't you? It is not the quickest
:48:12. > :48:17.start. But just at this point she is pulling a bit to the right of the
:48:18. > :48:22.lane. That is significant in a semi-final. Quick out of the blocks.
:48:23. > :48:26.Great drive phase. But effortless here. This is what you want. The
:48:27. > :48:30.more efficient you can get down the track, with speed, which she has,
:48:31. > :48:36.the quicker you're going to run. That is what with we see. She can do
:48:37. > :48:40.it better than anyone and it is nothing something you can
:48:41. > :48:43.necessarily coach. It is just a natural stride and natural body
:48:44. > :48:48.position that she has and technique she has and it is a great weapon for
:48:49. > :48:56.her. If you have been a Jamaican sprinter in the last decade, you're
:48:57. > :49:04.lost the spotlight to a certain Mr Usain Bolt. Perhaps if she was from
:49:05. > :49:09.another nation she would have g more recognition. With the events of last
:49:10. > :49:13.night it is time for her to shine and with no gold medal they would
:49:14. > :49:17.love it on independence day. Yes they were quiet last night. I spoke
:49:18. > :49:21.to my uncle and they were quiet. This is the moment they can make a
:49:22. > :49:28.difference. Andrew Cotter take it away. COMMENTATOR: A less familiar
:49:29. > :49:32.look to this final. Two from the Ivory Coast and two from Trinidad
:49:33. > :49:38.Tobago and only one from the United States and one from Jamaica. But it
:49:39. > :49:42.that is Jamaican in lane 6 who all will be trying to beat. Elaine
:49:43. > :49:52.Thompson starts as the clear favourite. Tori Bowie behind her in
:49:53. > :50:07.Rio. Ta Lou impressive in qualifying again. Thompson waits in two. First
:50:08. > :50:15.to be introduced is Kelly Ann Baptiste. World bronze-medallist in
:50:16. > :50:32.2011. She has served a drug ban. Back and running very quickly. And
:50:33. > :50:37.Michelle Lee Ahye there. Marie Josee Ta Lou delivers on the big stage. In
:50:38. > :50:45.Rio, a personal best in five of her six races. And what about Santos of
:50:46. > :50:50.Brazil? A huge slice off her personal best. The south American
:50:51. > :50:58.record. But where there was Usain Bolt last night, Jammeh can turns to
:50:59. > :51:03.Elaine Thompson. The Olympic champion over 100 and 200 in Rio.
:51:04. > :51:08.Not doing the 200 here. It is all on this. Tori Bowie will run the 200. A
:51:09. > :51:13.good start, she could get close to Thompson. It has not been a great
:51:14. > :51:24.day for Americans qualifying on the track. Murielle Ahoure goes in lane
:51:25. > :51:31.8. Had one very quick time this season of 10.83. And Daphne
:51:32. > :51:38.Schippers, just a shade off her very best. She will go in the 200. If she
:51:39. > :51:41.can get a quick start and get herself moving in the latter stages,
:51:42. > :52:03.she could challenge for a medal. 50,000 or so will fall silent for
:52:04. > :52:12.the final track event of this evening. Baptiste and Ahye and Ta
:52:13. > :52:28.Lou, Santos, Thompson, Bowie and Ahoure and Schippers.
:52:29. > :52:40.Thamp son with a stumble and she has gone. Ta Lou will take it. The
:52:41. > :52:44.golden boy who falls to earth, but the gold belongs to Ta Lou. What an
:52:45. > :52:54.upset and Elaine Thompson was nowhere in it. Marie Josee Ta Lou
:52:55. > :53:01.rules the world in the women's 100 metres. In fact, no, Torre Bowie has
:53:02. > :53:08.been given it on the line by 100th of a second. Ta Lou thought she had
:53:09. > :53:12.it. I thought she had it. But Tori Bowie will get to her feet and see
:53:13. > :53:18.she is the world champion over 100 metres. Elaine Thompson offers her
:53:19. > :53:25.congratulations. What happened to Thompson? And instead it is Tori
:53:26. > :53:29.Bowie who turns silver from the Olympics into gold. So many
:53:30. > :53:36.questions for Thompson. But it is Bowie's gold and we will watch the
:53:37. > :53:42.replay and wonder what happened. From the gun Ta Lou is out. We
:53:43. > :53:46.expected that. She has to hang on. Bowie has the ability to claw her
:53:47. > :53:51.back in. We saw that in the semi-finals. She had things in the
:53:52. > :53:58.bag. But Elaine Thompson could not get in the race. Huge surprise.
:53:59. > :54:04.United States takes the men's 100 and the women's 100 metres. That is
:54:05. > :54:09.a dip from Tori Bowie to take it. What a way to win it. Elaine
:54:10. > :54:15.Thompson, you think she is going to pick up. But there was a bit of a
:54:16. > :54:19.half wobble there from her. Yeah, it looked like she missed a stride,
:54:20. > :54:25.missed a step and that was part of her acceleration and she was just
:54:26. > :54:30.left completely left. What is interesting, she cruised through to
:54:31. > :54:35.a time in the semi-final that was faster than what won that title
:54:36. > :54:42.there. So she will be asking herself exactly what did go wrong. Marie
:54:43. > :54:47.Josie Ta Lou may have thought she had it. But it gold for the United
:54:48. > :54:53.States and Tori Bowie and you think of the dip from Miller in the 400 in
:54:54. > :55:01.Rio to take gold from Felix. That was as much due to tired legs. But
:55:02. > :55:07.that was a perfect dip. Gold for Bowie, silver for Ta Lou. And it was
:55:08. > :55:12.Daphne Schippers who sneaks in to take bronze. Would that have been
:55:13. > :55:18.the first three, would you have said that would be the first three? Well
:55:19. > :55:24.Elaine Thompson not in the medals and she is talking to Phil. A great
:55:25. > :55:31.surprise for us, what about you? I'm feeling great. I mean, I have to
:55:32. > :55:41.give the three girls a lot of credit. I tried to ex-cute. I
:55:42. > :55:46.planned it too. But I'm healthy. Was there anything in particular that
:55:47. > :55:51.didn't go right for you? Well I tried to get a start. The first run,
:55:52. > :55:56.I got a start, but I don't know what happened. I will have the look back
:55:57. > :56:01.and watch. I had a good race. In terms of quality of field, you know,
:56:02. > :56:06.you run with these girls on the Diamond League circuit and you beat
:56:07. > :56:13.them all the time. So... Can you quite put it into context? Well as I
:56:14. > :56:19.said, it was a strong field I have competed with these girls all
:56:20. > :56:26.season. I have to give Tori and Ta Lou credit. Thank you for talking to
:56:27. > :56:32.us. You're welcome. She is remaining very sanguine about it. But that was
:56:33. > :56:37.everyone saying who can beat Elaine Thompson. Just there, she falls
:56:38. > :56:42.back. She seemed to lose a stride. It is whether when she was extending
:56:43. > :56:48.one bit and one bit went shorter. But whatever happened, it completely
:56:49. > :56:53.confused us all. Let's see if there is any specific. She gets out well.
:56:54. > :57:02.You don't expect her to fly out of the block. Just something gives to
:57:03. > :57:07.Elaine and stops her. Ta Lou is driving hard. Bowie is running hard
:57:08. > :57:17.to the line. Knowing she has that opportunity. The camera goes to Ta
:57:18. > :57:25.Lou, she thinks she has got it. But by 100th of a second. How close that
:57:26. > :57:29.is. But the gold goes to the United States. Ta Lou almost celebrating
:57:30. > :57:39.and not dipping for the line. That cost her. Silver for Ta Lou, which
:57:40. > :57:49.she still celebrated. A great bronze for Schippers.
:57:50. > :57:59.STUDIO: Tori turning silver into gold in another dramatic 100-metre
:58:00. > :58:03.final. Two nights running, Michael Johnson, a Jamaican has been
:58:04. > :58:07.overturned by an athlete by the United States. That was a fantastic
:58:08. > :58:13.race to watch. Beside the fact of who is winning the races and the
:58:14. > :58:19.personalities and all of that, this is fantastic to see. This is what
:58:20. > :58:22.people should want to see with athletics, competition, there is
:58:23. > :58:28.nothing better and nothing gets people on their feet like a race and
:58:29. > :58:35.a finish like this where you don't know who is going to win. Tori Bowie
:58:36. > :58:40.a great race. Kalou, we said she would be in it. She is going to
:58:41. > :58:45.regret she didn't have it a bit of a better lean and an ability to get
:58:46. > :58:52.across that line before Bowie. But fantastic race. I think that Elaine
:58:53. > :58:57.Thomson, she held her drive phase a long time. And then when she
:58:58. > :59:01.realised that, she had to come out of it quick, as opposed to being
:59:02. > :59:08.patient and when you bring your head up, it throws all of that forward
:59:09. > :59:11.momentum back and we saw her stop making momentum and making a gain on
:59:12. > :59:14.the field and going back. I think she will be able to see that as she
:59:15. > :59:18.said, just not sure what happened. But she will look at the race and
:59:19. > :59:23.will be able to see what happened when she reviews it and will know
:59:24. > :59:29.that was a mistake. We will look back and see if there is that
:59:30. > :59:37.defining moment. There did seem to be a recognition almost in her face
:59:38. > :59:40.that happened. But it is the heptathlon medal ceremony. Jessica
:59:41. > :59:45.Ennis-Hill has been around this and Denise. Many times. Two days of
:59:46. > :59:51.hard, hard graft and work and it is great they get their medals tonight.
:59:52. > :00:00.Steve Cram? Yes there is nobody happier that Anouk vetter, a new
:00:01. > :00:07.national record for the Netherlands. A gutsy 800 at the end. She didn't
:00:08. > :00:11.get a personal best in that. She was passed by Carolin Schafer. What a
:00:12. > :00:17.developing athlete she is. What a year she has had. Not as many points
:00:18. > :00:25.as she scored before. But solid all the way through. A good 800 metres
:00:26. > :00:39.to finish. A good javelin. Never really challenging the Olympic
:00:40. > :00:44.champion. Nowhere near 7000 points this year pitch she didn't need to
:00:45. > :00:59.be. Belgium's first ever world title. Nafi Thiam. 6784 points. What
:01:00. > :01:05.a talent she is. Her high jump, 1.95, not as high as she achieved in
:01:06. > :01:11.Rio last year, but didn't need to. She was able to stroll the 800
:01:12. > :01:12.little bit. For the first time in the World Championships, the
:01:13. > :02:11.national anthem of Belgium. You get the feeling we're going to
:02:12. > :02:15.hear that jaunty little tune a few times over the next few years
:02:16. > :02:20.because she is still developing, still improving. She didn't need to
:02:21. > :02:24.be at her absolute best that these World Championships. A word again
:02:25. > :02:32.about Katarina Johnson-Thompson, surely her time will come one day.
:02:33. > :02:39.There was a medal there. 6636 was a great performance from there to in
:02:40. > :02:42.bronze but it was within reach for Johnson-Thompson. Nafi Thiam adding
:02:43. > :02:48.to her Olympic gold by becoming world champion.
:02:49. > :02:54.(STUDIO) thank you, Steve. Jessica Ennis-Hill is with me. We always say
:02:55. > :03:01.it when we sit up here and watch the last event, there is real
:03:02. > :03:04.camaraderie, this sisterhood in the heptathlon where you guys have to be
:03:05. > :03:10.fierce rivals for two days, but we know what you've been through. It is
:03:11. > :03:14.a unique experience and that's something I miss. You come together
:03:15. > :03:18.and celebrate what you've achieved over the two days. There's genuine
:03:19. > :03:24.respect for each other. To see those three girls on the podium, how hard
:03:25. > :03:27.they've worked this year, particularly Thiam, Olympic champion
:03:28. > :03:35.last year and coming back and backing it up this year and becoming
:03:36. > :03:37.world champion isn't easy. We hope Rodriguez and Johnson-Thompson
:03:38. > :03:46.pushing her, how much can she dominate? Have they got an
:03:47. > :03:52.incentive? I think they will push and continue to improve. I don't see
:03:53. > :03:58.anyone beating her at the moment, it she's got so much more to come and
:03:59. > :04:01.she's so young. I see her dominating for a few years. Katarina
:04:02. > :04:04.Johnson-Thompson spoke to fill afterwards and she was quite
:04:05. > :04:09.philosophical and quite pleased with the fact she had managed to in her
:04:10. > :04:13.head put to bed the disappointment of the high jump and get on with it.
:04:14. > :04:20.What advice would you give her? What does she need to do? Her interview
:04:21. > :04:24.was great and she was taking the positives. She's determined athlete.
:04:25. > :04:30.She will go away and work hard and she will hopefully come stronger. I
:04:31. > :04:34.would say, take what you've taken from these championships, like every
:04:35. > :04:39.Championships, to learn from it and to continue working in France, which
:04:40. > :04:44.is a new experience for her. It can take one or two years to make the
:04:45. > :04:49.change. She's got to trust in what she's doing and come back and
:04:50. > :04:53.believe she can perform and get on the podium. You've watched her from
:04:54. > :04:59.a very different perspective. Have you seen a growth and an increasing
:05:00. > :05:03.maturity from where you've watched here? It's a very different
:05:04. > :05:06.viewpoint. I was competing alongside her and I didn't see much detail
:05:07. > :05:15.like you do when you're sitting here. I definitely see a difference
:05:16. > :05:20.in her. She's disappointed, but you can see she's taking the positives.
:05:21. > :05:24.She's not being defeatist or thought, this is it, I've not jumped
:05:25. > :05:32.the 905I'm used to jumping, I'm going to call it a day. She's
:05:33. > :05:42.carried on fighting. Do you see the difference, Michael? Not so much.
:05:43. > :05:49.Not as much as I would like to see. I'd like to see a bit more. Let's go
:05:50. > :05:55.back to the 100 metres. We can have some analysis to look in particular
:05:56. > :06:02.at Elaine Thompson. I don't know if we should be completely shocked. She
:06:03. > :06:07.put down a 10.71 this year so she was the favourite. Tori Bowie and Ta
:06:08. > :06:15.Lou are obviously great competitors and will challenge. I think she held
:06:16. > :06:19.the drive phase to long. Each athlete is driving out of the
:06:20. > :06:24.blocks. You will notice that Tori Bowie is starting to come up, but
:06:25. > :06:33.Elaine Thompson is still down. She realises she's held it to long. She
:06:34. > :06:37.jerked her head up and all the momentum goes backwards. Now she's
:06:38. > :06:43.trying to catch up and the pressure is on. Like we saw with Usain Bolt
:06:44. > :06:47.last night, now you're under pressure and that nice, relaxed,
:06:48. > :06:53.easy form we typically see she's struggling to get back into it.
:06:54. > :06:59.Against this field and with the sort of gap that Ta Lou and Chloe already
:07:00. > :07:04.had, it was impossible to catch up. How pleased I you've Tori Bowie?
:07:05. > :07:09.She's been working very hard, she was close last year and she's a
:07:10. > :07:14.fantastic athlete over 100 and 200 and this was her time. She too good
:07:15. > :07:19.vantage of the opportunity and ran a season 's best when it counted.
:07:20. > :07:24.That's the difference between Bowie and Thompson. Elaine not even close
:07:25. > :07:29.to her season 's best and Tori Bowie running a season 's best. Let's see
:07:30. > :07:34.what that has done to the medal table. I think you'll be quite
:07:35. > :07:37.pleased, I know you're not parochial, but it's looking good for
:07:38. > :07:48.the United States of America already.
:07:49. > :07:56.Tonight was a bit as appointing for Great Britain in terms of potential
:07:57. > :08:01.medal targets. -- a bit disappointing. You would have had
:08:02. > :08:10.hopes for Holly Bradshaw, Thomson Johnson -- Johnson-Thompson. I think
:08:11. > :08:15.this could have been a really great night and unfortunate to see how
:08:16. > :08:21.Holly performed in the final. She could have got a bronze medal. Kat
:08:22. > :08:26.could have got a bronze medal. But it's Championships. With athletics,
:08:27. > :08:30.it's the process. You train for however long, all those hours and
:08:31. > :08:33.those months, and it's these one-off moments we have and if it doesn't
:08:34. > :08:38.come together, it doesn't come together and it's not happened for
:08:39. > :08:43.us. We've loved having you here and seeing you tonight to pick up your
:08:44. > :08:51.medal from day goo. What are you up to in the next month? I'm going to
:08:52. > :08:57.kick back and relax! You're welcome back on the sofa any time you like.
:08:58. > :09:00.We've loved having Jess here. It's been great having you here. Think of
:09:01. > :09:08.us while you're kicking back! You'll be watching! I'll be watching. Thank
:09:09. > :09:19.you. I think we should head outside and find out what's being discussed.
:09:20. > :09:24.Lots to discuss and I want to thank Jess for being part of the coverage
:09:25. > :09:29.and giving me tips for having children. Chaos was the word she
:09:30. > :09:34.gave me so thanks for that. Interesting day. Denise and Colin
:09:35. > :09:39.with me. Up and down day for the British athletes, unexpected results
:09:40. > :09:46.and lost to discuss. We have our troop of supporters watching us on
:09:47. > :09:50.the way out from the stadium. Either they really like ask or they just
:09:51. > :09:54.don't want to go to work tomorrow. Either way it's lovely to have them.
:09:55. > :09:59.Let's talk about British athletes and a little bit of disappointment.
:10:00. > :10:05.We've seen Nafi Thiam take a world title, truly deserved, but Katarina
:10:06. > :10:10.Johnson-Thompson should have been on one of our boards. She ended up in
:10:11. > :10:19.fifth. Where would you like to start with today? The long jump for me was
:10:20. > :10:24.a solid job. We know she can jump much further than she produced
:10:25. > :10:31.today. But it was tired legs. That issue of two fouls from the last
:10:32. > :10:36.World Championships. It was about getting a safe one in. You see her
:10:37. > :10:43.reaction. Please, please, please let it be valid and it was. Nice to see
:10:44. > :10:46.her trying to push that positivity. Nice to see the fighting spirit
:10:47. > :10:54.because that's what she needed to display after such a disappointing
:10:55. > :11:01.first. She said afterwards that she was really happy to throw over 40
:11:02. > :11:05.metres in the javelin. She said she was really trying to change her
:11:06. > :11:09.attitude. It's difficult for her after injuries and disappointments
:11:10. > :11:14.at major events. It's the first time I saw her smile so much Gerry
:11:15. > :11:18.McGarvey addition which was nice to see. Perhaps that's a starting
:11:19. > :11:21.point. It could be a breakthrough in the way she feels about her
:11:22. > :11:27.performance. She needs to get her mind right. It's seven events and
:11:28. > :11:31.not one event and she is gelling them better. I'm hoping she's
:11:32. > :11:37.finishing it with the right frame of mind. It may not be a medal, but if
:11:38. > :11:40.the mind is coming together, it's a good start. It's the best starting
:11:41. > :11:47.place. It doesn't matter what talent you have, you have to get physical
:11:48. > :11:52.and mental in harmony. She's improving. Her coach said to her, I
:11:53. > :11:56.want you to be free through the heptathlon. I think she has
:11:57. > :12:00.displayed that despite the disappointment. She got involved
:12:01. > :12:06.with the girls, this is always the lovely part of the heptathlon. She's
:12:07. > :12:11.got a little rice smile. I know inside she'll be bitterly
:12:12. > :12:14.disappointed. -- wry smile. She should be disappointed because we
:12:15. > :12:19.want her to move on. It's not always easy to go to a new country, new
:12:20. > :12:23.coaching, she's changed so much. For her to compete the way she did and
:12:24. > :12:29.end up with a bit of a smile is a solid start. We were hoping she
:12:30. > :12:34.might deliver for many a year. It doesn't just come like that and
:12:35. > :12:38.hopefully she will come good in the end. Somebody full of consistency,
:12:39. > :12:45.delivering time after time, let's talk about Nafi Thiam. So young, so
:12:46. > :12:50.astute and so good. So good and so confident. I always wondered how she
:12:51. > :12:55.would cope with the pressure and the expectation. She is now the poster
:12:56. > :12:59.girl of Belgium. This was probably not a vintage hurdles race for her,
:13:00. > :13:06.but it was solid and that was all she needed to do in the first event.
:13:07. > :13:11.High jump, always guaranteed success for her because she has competed in
:13:12. > :13:19.single in this event. She delivered. 1.95. As we were watching the high
:13:20. > :13:23.jump, the commentators were talking about her taking on the heights.
:13:24. > :13:29.Maybe that might affect her physically. If you are on a positive
:13:30. > :13:35.role, it takes the momentum through for the other offence. Absolutely,
:13:36. > :13:39.she displayed another good shot put. There are no weaknesses. That's what
:13:40. > :13:46.you want from the champion. A Habitat light that can aways keep it
:13:47. > :13:53.together. -- a heptathlete. Her 200 and hurdles speeds are coming on.
:13:54. > :14:02.You do forget how young she is. She's doing all right. More than all
:14:03. > :14:07.right. Bags of talent. What about the progress in just two years.
:14:08. > :14:12.2015, 11 thin the World Championships. Olympic gold and
:14:13. > :14:18.world gold in two years. We'd all like that but we haven't got that
:14:19. > :14:24.talent. The three of us, I haven't got that talent! She's already hit
:14:25. > :14:29.7000 points. She could really dominate for a long time.
:14:30. > :14:37.People forget she was the European bronze-medallist and we have been
:14:38. > :14:41.watching her for a while. It is not having those weaknesses. A big
:14:42. > :14:45.50-metre throw. That kind of talent and she is just starting. She is
:14:46. > :14:54.still learning. We have got many years of watching that Nafi Thiam.
:14:55. > :15:00.This was the last event, 800 metres. She had already done it. She run an
:15:01. > :15:05.eight the way I would. She takes her time. It must be a pleasure to be
:15:06. > :15:12.running the 800 thinking, I won't be that far behind and the title is
:15:13. > :15:17.mine. Well, Catharina Johnson Thompson did everything she could to
:15:18. > :15:24.stay in contention. Fifth wasn't too bad. The disappointment was easy to
:15:25. > :15:31.see. But Nafi Thiam was the world champion. Congratulate wakeses to
:15:32. > :15:40.her - congratulations to her. And Denise can put a second face on our
:15:41. > :15:46.pretty thin gold medal board. It got these guys going, Denise doesn't
:15:47. > :15:50.have to do much to get them going. Yesterday she showed us more than we
:15:51. > :15:59.all thought. And they have come back. And pole vault and again
:16:00. > :16:04.someone who we hoped might doing something special in Holly Bradshaw.
:16:05. > :16:13.You come into the wormed Championships and she -- into the
:16:14. > :16:19.World Championships and she had been making some strides. This was a
:16:20. > :16:23.crucial final jump and we touched on the physicality of it. In the past
:16:24. > :16:28.she has failed at the crucial moment. Here she did a good
:16:29. > :16:32.clearance and I can see her thinking, why didn't I do that the
:16:33. > :16:42.jump before? It was such a clean take. The jumps were going to count
:16:43. > :16:46.her out. We will see. It was 4.75 she went for. That was telling in
:16:47. > :16:51.the end. It is a height she should be able to do in her sleep. She is
:16:52. > :16:59.more than capable of jumping this height and she was so close. Those
:17:00. > :17:03.early failures at 4.65 cost her a medal and it is the decisions you
:17:04. > :17:06.make in split moments that can take you out of the medals. But she will
:17:07. > :17:13.learn from this. There is more to come from her. As it happened, Holly
:17:14. > :17:21.was inconsolable, because it was that clearance at 4.65. On count
:17:22. > :17:25.back, had she cleared it earlier she would have got bronze. This was her
:17:26. > :17:30.reaction straight after knowing the result. But we were watching when
:17:31. > :17:37.she was doing the jumps, her coach and they have a certain language. He
:17:38. > :17:43.was making hand signals. The time was all counting down. We were
:17:44. > :17:50.thinking, just jump. But they have their routine. Us as watchers can
:17:51. > :17:54.get flustered with that. Ten seconds is a long time and we were watching
:17:55. > :17:59.the clock and she was checking to make sure it was the right time to
:18:00. > :18:04.move. In the end she would have made the call. She is the athlete. She is
:18:05. > :18:09.going to make that call. I see a lot of her training in Cardiff. She
:18:10. > :18:13.trains in the same gym I train in. She has improved so much physically
:18:14. > :18:19.this year and her attitude has been spot on. Personally I'm a bit
:18:20. > :18:24.disappointed. But it does set her up well for being a bit more hungry and
:18:25. > :18:33.not making those mistakes again. So it is not the end for this year.
:18:34. > :18:40.Still plenty to come. Catriona Stefanidi, is the Olympic champion
:18:41. > :18:45.and showed everybody why. She has been in formidable form. Unbeaten in
:18:46. > :18:53.the Diamond League. Today, she rose to the occasion again. Jumping 4.91.
:18:54. > :18:57.A huge jump. With all the pressure. All the expectation. It was nice to
:18:58. > :19:02.see it. I was around some of the Greeks, they were going ballistic
:19:03. > :19:06.when they saw her going over. It is great to see good athletics, when
:19:07. > :19:11.sports people are doing well. She is at the top of her game and
:19:12. > :19:14.delivering. This is why I love athletics, because you know you
:19:15. > :19:19.cannot predict which country is going to win, you have got a whole
:19:20. > :19:26.host of different countries getting and vying for medals. It is an
:19:27. > :19:33.international event. Congratulations to Catriona Stefanidi. Colin, it is
:19:34. > :19:38.your moment. He is going to try and do what Denise did. Stefanidi on the
:19:39. > :19:47.gold medal podium if you wouldn't mind! There is more! We like that.
:19:48. > :19:52.I'm not the one to call it. But I think Colin won that one. We have
:19:53. > :19:59.got three gold-medallist on our podium. Before we move on, shall we
:20:00. > :20:04.hear from Holly Bradshaw. Oh, we haven't got her any more. She has
:20:05. > :20:10.gone. But she was very disappointed. There was so much going on today.
:20:11. > :20:14.And there was one competition that is hotting up, the men's 400 metres
:20:15. > :20:44.is one to watch. Kerwin mustn't be fazed by Kerley.
:20:45. > :20:53.Kerley beginning to make his move. Gardiner putting pressure on Allen.
:20:54. > :20:58.Kerley and gardener. Look at the style as he fires down the home
:20:59. > :21:03.straight. Allen coming through. Only two to go through automatically. The
:21:04. > :21:08.Americans being run out of it. Gardiner and Allen and Kerley will
:21:09. > :21:21.have to hope for the top. He has gone hard in the semi-final.
:21:22. > :21:33.LaShawn merit outside. Who redrew the heats have given us a nice one.
:21:34. > :21:41.There is challengers. Van Niekirk has started well. Gordon in the red
:21:42. > :21:51.has gone quickly through 200. Smith going well on the the inside. Hudson
:21:52. > :21:58.Smith is right in the mix. He is past van Niekirk. Can he keep that
:21:59. > :22:13.going. Haroun finishing quickly. Van Niekirk wins. Hudson just loses out
:22:14. > :22:20.to Haroun. He has the speed and great 200 metres speed. Robinson
:22:21. > :22:32.started quickly, the USA athlete in lane 7. A big gap appearing. It may
:22:33. > :22:45.well be the action is in the outside lane. Roberts will try and react.
:22:46. > :22:49.Makwala continues to go away. And that lovely action of his holding it
:22:50. > :23:06.together. Makwala has time to look around. 44.30. Roberts third. 43.89,
:23:07. > :23:11.a new national record. . Allen with a personal best. Maybe those four
:23:12. > :23:17.with Gardiner, I don't know. I won't say. Van Niekirk is the favourite.
:23:18. > :23:24.But it will be a brilliant race. Everybody here is looking forward to
:23:25. > :23:29.the 400 metres final on Tuesday. It will be a hot ticket, of course van
:23:30. > :23:36.Niekirk is the man to beat, but he won't have it all his own way? No,
:23:37. > :23:41.remember, he doesn't have a day off. He has the 200 metres, but Makwala
:23:42. > :23:49.is doing the 200. So they're battling for the double. Who will
:23:50. > :23:56.win. Will bit from the Bahamas? Gutting for Matt Hudson Smith, who,
:23:57. > :24:06.one place oud, out, or he would have been in the final. Before you joined
:24:07. > :24:10.us, we talked of women's 100 metres and another shock, another Jamaican
:24:11. > :24:14.we were expecting to win. Still trying to work out what happened.
:24:15. > :24:21.She was the favourite and I have never seen her run like this. We
:24:22. > :24:25.have to question is something wrong. But a great victory from Ta Lou.
:24:26. > :24:32.Look at that reaction. But this was the winner in the end. What... It
:24:33. > :24:36.was a perfect dip from Tori Bowie. If there was an great timing of a
:24:37. > :24:41.dip that was it. She will have to recover from that to run the 200.
:24:42. > :24:47.Sometimes when you pitch like that, you can knock yourself out. There is
:24:48. > :24:53.a bit of strachs on the should -- scratches on the shoulder as well.
:24:54. > :24:57.But she doesn't care. Well done on a wonderful performance. A gold medal.
:24:58. > :25:04.What is it like to be world champion? Thank you so much. I mean
:25:05. > :25:09.it is a wonderful feeling like... I'm so happy and... You know I feel
:25:10. > :25:15.like the hard work has finally paid off. I couldn't be more happy. The
:25:16. > :25:21.night is perfect. It is like it is still trying to sink in, seep in
:25:22. > :25:26.maybe? Yes, I'm sure once I leave the track I will go, am I really the
:25:27. > :25:32.world champion. It hasn't sunk in. But I'm so grateful and thankful and
:25:33. > :25:40.tonight is one of best nights of my life. What a dip as well! What a
:25:41. > :25:46.night, most of things I have won have been with with a dip. So now
:25:47. > :25:52.the dip's the night. Are you, you are in one piece. You have had some
:25:53. > :25:57.treatment and you're OK. I haven't had treatment, I'm a bit sore, but
:25:58. > :26:01.nothing major, just bruises. We want you to celebrate pain-free. That
:26:02. > :26:09.won't happen, but I will be fine tomorrow. Enjoy it. Thank you. She
:26:10. > :26:13.went from exhausted to disbelief to hysterical to feeling the pain,
:26:14. > :26:17.Denise, but she is holding the stars and stripes proudly. It was a
:26:18. > :26:23.surprise win, but you have got to deliver on the day. It was a
:26:24. > :26:28.surprise. It was close. But Bowie was the bridesmaid last year at the
:26:29. > :26:42.Olympics, golden girl tonight. Well done to her. Next an event close to
:26:43. > :26:52.Colin's heart, the 110 hurdles. Harris got left. Darien leading. And
:26:53. > :27:04.Shubenkov coming back into it. Darien holds on to second behind the
:27:05. > :27:09.Olympic champion. Left a bit and Allen going through. Pozzi hits the
:27:10. > :27:18.front. Ove it is so close. He has been run out of it I think of
:27:19. > :27:22.automatic qualifying and only 13.28. Four to the line just about together
:27:23. > :27:33.and Pozzi was leading the way with a barrier to go. But he may have been
:27:34. > :27:38.edged out of that. A good start by Baji. He is so pure over the
:27:39. > :27:48.barriers. Baji, in the middle, running well. And it is Baji taking
:27:49. > :27:57.it. A look across. Not as impressive from Merritt as it was in the first
:27:58. > :28:03.round. Tomorrow's final, McLeod will start as favourite. Shubenkov is
:28:04. > :28:14.going through as one of the fastest losers.
:28:15. > :28:21.Colin, before the Championships, the Jamaicans would have had probably
:28:22. > :28:27.lists of guaranteed gold-medallist, all sprinters, two haven't
:28:28. > :28:36.delivered. Omagh McLeod has more pressure on him now? Yes he is the
:28:37. > :28:41.No 1 sprinter. So he is looking better technically and much more Sol
:28:42. > :28:45.Sid and consistent. -- solid and consistent. So much disappointment
:28:46. > :28:49.for Andrew Pozzi, who in his semi-final was that close from
:28:50. > :28:55.getting his place and leading before he clipped a hurdle. He was just
:28:56. > :29:00.that, it was just that ninth hurdle. He hit it with his lead and trail
:29:01. > :29:07.leg and he probably lost 400th of a second and he is out of final. And
:29:08. > :29:12.unfortunately for Andrew, another British disappointment. But so much
:29:13. > :29:17.to look forward to on day four. They're also hanging out. Have you
:29:18. > :29:23.all had a good day? CHEERING AND APPLAUSE. If they say so ewe have to
:29:24. > :29:29.take it as read. Join us again tomorrow.
