Women's 200m title will most likely go to Elaine Thompson unless Miller Uibo stops her.

In the women's 400m hurdles, the fight for gold will be between Dalilah Muhammad and Sydney McLaughlin
Re: Tokyo Olympics 2021 Live Updates Thread by MJBOLT: 1:48pm On Aug 02, 2021
McLaughlin is the current WR holder and Olympic Silver medalist from Doha while Muhammad is the reigning world and defending Olympic champion.

McLaughlin is 10 years younger than Muhammad

They stand a very slim chance because Nwokocha is the only ‘natural’ short sprinter, and so it will take longer for the other three to come to grips with the basics of baton exchanges in the short sprints

Two rounds done and she's still leading. Even the Americans haven't come close yet. Hopefully it would end in big praises for her.

She's no longer leading, now in second position. Also, she needs to do more. A 7m+ jump from her will secure the top position.

Her third round was null.

Sure boss. But if ese jumps to 6.82 or better she'll lead since the American equalled her first jump. Oh just saw when you typed about the third jump now. It's intense man.

I still hold on to my shaky belief that she'll get at least bronze probably bigger. She just needs a strong opening jump like the earlier round and she doesn't need to allow her nerves get to her.
