![]() It's a mess how USA haven't had one Gold so far (not to jinx it but I'm 99% sure Lauren Rain Williams will change that in the 200)

Jon’s Efoloko <333
Fantastic day for GB, 3 Gold medals in one night! Probably the only Golds we’ll get tbh but I’m not complaining!

Mess @ only 1 individual US Gold tho (and only 2 other relay Golds). I'm sure it was just a bizarre fluke tho

and then we ended with a dropped baton in the men's 4x400 ( ) and losing to ITALY. Really just puts the cherry on top of a disastrous meet for us ![]() I really don't know what it was this year. It's not uncommon for us to not send all of our best athletes since there's usually a stronger emphasis on NCAA championships and high school nationals, but we had so many people just falter and miss out on gold or be way out of contention. Anyway, I'm trying to enjoy the World Cup for what is because I do like the idea behind it but there's just so many nobodies who I'm not invested in at all. Not to mention that half of the fields are even smaller because China apparently didn't enter 14 of the events or something

Apparently there's controversy over her win or something because it was a dead heat and the rules state that lots should be drawn when ties like that happen
![]() And yeah the World Cup is a cute idea I guess, I've always liked the European Team Championships for doing point-based tournaments and stuff, I'm just not keen on the coverage provided over here China are a mess only entering the field and sprint events tho They should be replaced with Japan or Australia or something if they can't/won't fill slots.

I'm catching up on this Athletics World Cup thing now and dear god, Sky Sports coverage has to be THE worst coverage of an athletics event I have EVER seen. An hour of talking, hosts spoiling results before they're shown, only seeing 3 or 4 jumps/throws from British athletes ONLY etc.
The crowd is decent enough for a crappy event tho, shame they were probably duped into buying tickets thinking they'd see world class athletes.
