@Billy-Tell They seem happy - great rides to break the WR 4 times in the event.

Impressive

I had noticed Ireland doing well. Popping up on gymnastics and rowing I have watched.

Duplantis. Most dominant athlete at these games that I’ve seen.

Nice to see a Brit take out the 800 m

Gold for the UK's Keely Hodgkinson in the women's 800 metres. Far too strong for the rest of the field.

I wish the tv stations would let you choose track or field. Watching the pole vault and it kept going away to sprint heats. So annoying.

And Duplantis gets a new World Record of 6.25 on the third attempt. Awesome!!!!!!

His 9th World record!

[Billy Tell]

The pole vault is the best field event imo. Any medal for nz would be great.
