Nah laird was in. He just decided to focus on the 200. Probably a smart move honestly the 100 is fricking nuts

Eh your allowed a step and it’s not likely they’d call it as long as she didn’t impede anyone.

ETA: you’re allowed a step as long as you don’t impede anyone would be a better way to explain it

Richardson is fun to watch. Always out the blocks and slow which makes you wonder, then she always pulls so far ahead

That’s such a strict rule for such an important moment and if you’re gonna be that strict, you should get 1 false start

He'll compete in qualifying next Friday and assuming he makes it through, finals are next Sunday

Bromell, Baker and Kerley make the team in the 100m. Looking like a smart move from Terrance Laird to focus on the 200m because first guy to miss the team ran a 9.89. That's no joke.

So far there have been very few surprises and lots of excellent performances in the trials.
