That was insane. Almost looks like their captain is involved in match-fixing and told his teammates the game needs to be a draw

I don't get it, Van Niekerk is a former olympic champion and multiple times world champion on the 400m, why is he running dead last in the 200m semi instead when the 400m is later on tonight

the winner's form looked horrible on the home straight, wobbling all over the place, but he just kept getting quicker

20 men to run in the 5k final after that fall.

That should make it a nice, bump and drama free race!

Didn’t realise that the British bloke who fell in the 5000m is the son of Leeds/Man City Danny Mills

that yank is 1/25 to win the 110m hurdles. pretty short odds for an event where if you clatter one hurdle you're completely ****ed

Do I finally understand these weird odds?
Is 1/25 the same as 1.04?

To convert from fractional to decimal odds just add 1. 1/25 = 0.04, so 1.04 in decimal. Evens in fractional is 2 in decimal, 4/1 in fractional is 5 in decimal etc.
It's converting to American style that always throws me, although I think that is actually just multiply the fractional odds by 100 (flip the fraction around first and make the result negative if odds on).
