I still can't believe that Isinbayeva didn't win the pole vault. If you had given me a list of unlikely events to occur in these championships, this would have been right up there - shoulder to shoulder - with Bolt not winning the 100m. She hasn't been on her best form this year but my God, she's been invincible in these big events. I'm stunned.

Good race. Always great to see someone reacting like that when they win. :D

Didn't that woman in lane 4 cut into lane 3 right at the very end?

Yeah, looks like Kerron Steward did impede into Fraser's lane.

I thought that. Wouldn't it take a complaint to provoke any action against her, though? And the Jamaicans aren't exactly about to complain.

Yep, but if nobody complains (which the winner wont because why the strawberry float would she) they won't do anything about it.

Ohuroghu was pretty awful in the final, fair enough she would have had to run a lifetime best to win it but she was just nowhere for the entire race

Odowu is at least looking good
