Seemed to be really slow first hurdle and last hurdle.

Quick heat

Kerr is through on the high jump. Heaps of clearance there

Good, thanks. I changed channel for what I thought would be 13 seconds...

Wondering what happened.

I hate that they didn't build podiums with a basic plastic screen between each level. Those photos will be shown to their grand kids, would be so much better without masks.

Off the masks come for a photo op. Not sure why they need to stay on during the anthem

Holy crap, the guy from Qatar has got crazy hops, and rapper swag to boot

800m - too far to sprint, too short to pace. Brutal distance.

That was a crazy fun 800m semi.

Pole squeezed through a gap on inside twice!

Who is the kiwi commentator on the high jump?
