The entries for Fridays DL is beyond tasty.
Good victory for Giles and Webb this evening, beating some top guys, Murphyand Tuwei; but I note both Dobek and Dustin are in Fridays 800m together with Hoppel, Murphy and Giles. Exciting prospects.

Another thing is that all the Americans are just that little bit behind what they were doing at Oregon.

no surprise; after all a lot of the American OG Trials times were with a rather nice following wind.

Great times and performances today in Hungary... and according to the meeting director, the track is "soft", so not supposedly conducive to fast times... Well, looks like the athletes were eager to prove him wrong!

The Jamaicans did not seem so affected by jetlag... just as far to come. Pleaded to see De Grasse coming back to form;

I mean, nobody is talking about Femke Bol and Shamier Little having a virtually *identical* race to their amazing battle in Stockholm just 48 hours ago, and yet again, both women went below 53 seconds for 400 m hurdles... Bol managing to edge out Little 52.81 to 52.85.

So now we have a new rivalry developing in this event. You've got McLaughlin/Muhammad, and Bol/Little!

she is a tough cookie that Bol; hope she is at her best in Tokyo.

Unsurprising. It was clearly a fast track with good conditions for sprinting in particular, plus possible jet lag and post-trials hangovers.

I'm loving the split screen for the mDT and mTJ at the Gyulai meet tonight. I somehow can't see the BBC following suit :-)

[Occasional Hope]

The w100 is going to be a real fight in Tokyo.

[Grassmarket]

Thompson wins the 100m, 10.71! SAFP 10.82. Ta Lou third.

Simbine takes the men’s 9.85! PB

well, fast times all the way, but we haven’t had a full result for the mens. 12.34 for Camacho-Quinn in the hurdles.

[drobbie]

regarding minichello, its not coming from emerson , she thanked him today in her instagram post and stated that she was still working with him

[Ladyloz]

Indeed, especially when you have a high profile

[marra]

Don't know anything about the alleged charges, so not going to comment on that. But you have to say that it is pretty arrogant behaviour to ignore a suspension.

[Grassmarket]

Well, this is a mess.

UK Athletics has confirmed coach Toni Minichiello has been suspended pending an investigation into complaints from female athletes.
