I love this girl she brings it on the big occasions.
Can't wait to see what she does in tomorrow's semi final.

I pray she stay focused and get her rhythm right.

Ese Brume in the long jump. She qualifies with a 6.89m. The best distance so far.

Malaika Mihambo is the girl to beat. She qualified with a jump of 6.98m. She might jump 7m + tomorrow.

She has the potential to better that time. I think she had problem getting off the block.

Live just in from trackside

My bad. She is just 0.04sec shy of the African Record which is still owned by our own Glory Alozie.

Ese Brume in the long jump. She qualifies with a 6.89m. The best distance so far.

Impressive!

Just in photo of Ese's 6.89m qualifying jump. Her very first jump. Thanks very much!

Women's Long Jump:
The great Brittney Reese (USA) fails to qualify for the finals by a single centimetre.

Ese Brume ends the day with 2nd longest qualifying jump with 6.89m

Tomorrow is pregnant , I can't wait.

Women's 4x400m relay

Nigeria fail to qualify for tomorrow's final, finish 8th in 3min 35sec. in heat 1
Jamaica won the heat in 3min 23sec world leading time

Chukwuebuka Enekwechi currently participating in the men's Shot Putt final.
Best of luck to him in his attempt to win our first medal.

I believe he is our first finalist at these championships if you discount Ebelechukwu Agbapuonwu (aka Salwa Naser) fantastic gold medal in women's 400m as she represents Bahrain.

Chukwuebuka Enekwechi is currently 5th in men's Shot Put, after opening his account with a throw of 21.18m

Chukwuebuka Enekwechi in action.

Men's Shot Putt is done.
Chukwuebuka Enekwechi was unfortunately unable to improve on his 21.18m opening first round throw and finishes 8th.
Kudus to him for having a great championships, after all 8th in the world is no mean feat.

Tomorrow is the last day of the championship and the day that our two best hopes for medals compete in their respective finals.

Nigeria should get 2 medals today. My thinking b4 d championship was dat, both of dem would get bronze but after seeing dem in action, I think 2 gold is a big possibility

I agree a gold medal or two is not an impossibility. A medal or two is very probable, let's just keep our fingers crossed.

I agree 2 golds is possible. 2 medals very probable .

29mins to go before the start of the Women's 100m hurdles semi-finals and Long Jump final.

Time to get your snacks and glass of water.

Who is that

Tobi Amusan racing right now.

Lorazepam:
Who is that

She is a major contributor to this thread

Tobi Amusan wins her race and qualifies for the final with 12.48....Same as in the last round. She has been consistent. I think she peaked at the right time, equaling her personal best.

Janeek Brown’s pb is 12.40 but she came second with 12.61.

Yeah Ese Brume has opened with a solid 6.83m that distance could win her a medal even if she doesn't improve on it.
