great by all 3 there

Three Brits in the final, Brilliant!

Sara Kuivisto the first Finnish woman to go sub-2 with 1:59.41

Solid enough for Bell. Certainly nothing to be ashamed of, if she doesn't end up making it.

Well done to alex bell - if she does make the final that would be an over achievement I think, and if she doesn’t she’s still done very well
mu is a goddess

[trickstat]

Mu does look superb. Maybe one day she may break the longest-lasting WR in the history of the sport?

[Occasional Hope]

I thought Mu would struggle with the rounds and step up to international competition, but certainly not so far. She looks the clear gold favourite.

Alex Bell did her best and might be fast enough for a fast loser spot.

[Christy93]

Alex Bell has a great chance of making the final with that time. Athing Mu looks incredible, but I don't see Goule or Almanza (if she makes it) giving her an easy lead in the final.

[LuckySpikes]

Well done, Alex Bell ! Good shot at making the final.

[trickstat]

Gutsy 3rd by Alex Bell. May be an FL.

[trickstat]

If I recall correctly I was first aware of her when she beat Jess Judd to win the World Juniors so it seems odd that she has not nailed it in the seniors yet.

[SprintRelayFan]

Funny how often that happens with Americans 🤔

[Christy93]

Yes, very emotional. She's wonderful, isn't she? An absolute treasure.

[SprintRelayFan]

I thought that a very impressive run
