Woo tries 2.38 and isn’t close; Kerr, the Olympic champ, isn’t either. If the Korean can’t get over next go, it’s over.
Share
…and Kerr flings himself over! Woo will have to increase the height of the bar if he’s to steal the gold, so up it goes to 2.38.

The bar goes up to 2.36, Woo to take first go, and he can’t haul himself over. Can Kerr? He gets the crowd going, breathes, and sets off…
Share
Stefela gets up well … but the bar comes down and he buries his face in the mat. He didn’t come for bronze, but that’s what he’s got. He gets up, flips, and he’s happier now, congratulating Kerr and Woo, who’ll now contest the gold.
Share
Doroshchuk fails and finishes fourth; check to Chechia and Stefela.
Share
…and he’s over too!
Share
Woo gets it going again, smiling all over his face … AND HE’S OVER! He slaps his own face in delight, and the others have one go at clearing 2.34, or this is over. Here comes Hamish…
Share
Doroshchuk and Stefela both miss on their second go; if no one clears any further height, Woo wins on countback from Stefela from Kerr.
ShareShare
Now we’re back to Woo, who gets the crowd and himself going, but again, nowhere near. What can Hamish come up with Up with what can Hamish come? Er, not much, he was much closer first go.

…and he too isn’t close.
Share
Doroshchuk gets nowhere near 2.34, leaping through the bar, and now Stefela will have a shy…
Share
Now Kerr, the Olympic champ, also over at that height, goes for 2.34 … and gets really close, but catches the bar with his elbow.
Share
Righto, time to focus on the men’s high jump final. Woo has just gone over 2.31 – Stefela of Chechia, Kerr of Australia and Doroshchuk of Ukraine are already sorted.

Looking at the race again, Tinch didn’t hit the front until maybe the fifth hurdle, but you knew he’d power through from well before that. He was ready for this.
Share
‘“I love you Mum!” Tinch calls into the camera, and rightly so; she reminded him to make the most of his talent when he’d pretty much quit athletics, and imagine how proud she’ll be now.
Share
Muratake exploded out of the blocks, but he couldn’t control his speed; he was out of it by the third flight. Tinch, on the other hand, was more considered, but by the same stage the race was effectively his. He’s not the quickest between the barriers, but he was excellent getting over them, and didn’t he enjoy the moment. Well done, old mate.

Cordell Tinch of USA wins the men’s 110m hurdles in 12.99
Bennett and Mason, both of Jamaica, take silver and bronze respectively.
Share
Muratake is away brilliantly but hits the first two barriers and Tinch is coming through!
Share
They take their marks. There’ll be some serious nerves down there, given how nasty and quick this event is.
Share
Our hurdlers are on the track, and this race feels pretty open. Imagine the noise of Muratake of Japan, drawn in lane five, comes through; Mason of Jamaica is also a threat.
Share
Ethan Katzberg of Canada wins the hammer
Merlin Hummel of Germany takes silver and Bence Halasz of Hungary bronze.
Share
We’re five minutes away from the men’s 110m hurdles final. Cordell Tinch looked pretty good in the semis, and he’s the favourite.
As it goes, he almost didn’t become an athlete – he went to college on a football scholarship, decided he preferred running, and left it at that. But then he returned home to protect his mental health, and following the pandemic, got a job selling phones, only for his mum and a mate to convince him to move colleges, give track his all, and here we are.

Faith Kipyegon is something else. There was literally nothing that anyone could do to stop her, however that race went: had someone gone off like Paula Ivan, she’d have chased them down; in the event, she led from the front, kicked, and devastated the field.
Share
Faith Kipyegon of Kenya wins the women’s 1500m in 3:52.15, her fourth world title in a row!
It’s just incredible how much better Kipyegon is than everyone else. Her teammate Ewoi came through for second with Hull, who tied to chase and challenge for gold, taking bronze for Australia.

Kipyegon still leads, a couple of yards between her and Hull now. Those two are clear now, but Faith has gone and this is poetry! It’s amazing, again, from the greatest of all time!
Share
With 600 to go, Kipyegon turns it up gradually, but as they take the bell, expect her to stomp on the gas…
Share
We’re coming up to halfway with Kipyegon leading from Hull from Chepchirchir. Who’ll kick first?
Share
Kipyegon leads from Hull of Australia, and the pace isn’t too quick. I don’t think we’re seeing a world record today.
Share
The gun goes, and off goes the women’s 1500m final. Kipyegon goes straight to the front.
