That youngster from Botswana is some talent .. fluent effortless sprinting

Interesting to see where his career goes over the next few years

Good run from Hughes, glad he at least medalled with the season he has had

Any shouts on what Lyles will run in the 200?

None, but the 200 is Hughes' choice. If he (Hughes) can improve his starts he'll be a contender.

….enjoying the World Championships, can’t warm to BLT or whatever her name is but still so glad she won, terrific effort and a supreme athlete. Big mates with Jodie Comer so can’t be all bad.

Stunning effort.

She's done our city proud and our country proud.

Surely Lyles is far further ahead in the 200m? Hughes could defo podium but I think the 100m was his only real gold opportunity.

Especially pleased for KJT as her last triumph was in an empty stadium in Doha, which must have been pretty depressing the athletes.
