Bradshaw fails and will be 3rd.

She should be proud of herself if not also a little relieved.

[Sprintfan]

Great run by Wightman......

[Sprintfan]

Bronze for Holly B! Well done girl!!

[drobbie]

well done holly, finally fulfiling your potential

[SprintRelayFan]

Maybe Scott Simpson could coach the men's sprints...

[LoveSprints1]

and triple jump. The list could go on! Well done Holly - fantastic

[trickstat]

Perhaps Javelin?

[Croadymeister]

Will throw in Shot Put & Discus as well

[Ursus]

Blimey Bradshaw, not even a SB.

Very well done to her, it’s been a hell of a journey. Is that her 2nd best ever outdoors?

[trickstat]

Yes - 4.90 at the trials, 4.87 indoors in 2012 and another 4.85 indoors.

[Occasional Hope]

And Nageotte is the champion!

[SprintRelayFan]

The Americans have another champion! I'm quite pleased from a medal tables perspective....

[trickstat]

Nageotte was impressive recovering form a poor start and pulling out a clutch vault for gold.

[carterhatch]

Don't think I have ever been so relieved by a bronze medal in my entire life... well done Holly Bradshaw.

[jjimbojames]

Well done, Holly - that's probably where most would have put her out of those three but she delivered!

[LuckySpikes]

Well done, Holly! At last!

[Croadymeister]

If only Holly could have got over first and been able to really pile the pressure on the other two,however chuffed to bits she has finally got on the podium which will give her belief.

[marra]

Probably the right result on form - Nageotte has been the form athlete, Sidorova always delivers. Of course I'm sure she would love gold or silver but Holly should be delighted with that bronze and she looks like she's enjoying it!!

[alfie]

From a shoddy start that PV morphed into a wonderful contest ! Congrats to Nageotte for that final jump... and really well done Holly Bradshaw for getting on the podium at last 👍

Should at last silence her critics ?

[MysteryBrick]

Never. Critics won't let actual performances and medals affect their priors...

[trickstat]

There are some who would find a negative if she'd won gold with a WR!
