“It all seems to be coming together at the right time,” Max Burgin said earlier this week.

Will it come together for a fourth British medal?

Nobody could touch the 65.12 metres thrown by Juleisy Angulo on her second attempt in the javelin final. It was a new Ecuadorian record, and enough to win her first global gold.

Silver goes to Latvia's Anete Sietina, who leapfrogged Australia's Mackenzie Little into second place with a personal best of 64.64m.

Little repeats her third place finish from Budapest 2023, a second successive world bronze.

After watching Amy Hunt seize her moment last night, Max Burgin will Tokyo can provide the stage for his emergence as a force on the global stage.

Comparisons have long been drawn to British middle-distance great Sebastian Coe, whose British record Burgin is now within 0.6 seconds of.

This could be the race where that finally falls after 44 years, amid increasing expectations that this current generation will soon surpass Kenyan David Rudisha's once seemingly untouchable mark of 1:40.91.

For Burgin, this is a huge opportunity. He has been able to go toe-to-toe with the world's best during a rare year of consistency following injury setbacks and a run of bad luck - including when a deep vein thrombosis diagnosis kept him out of the 2022 Worlds, when ranked the fastest man that year.

A world, European and British record holder as a junior, he has made his medal intentions clear. Now, can he deliver...

David Rudisha, men's 800m world and Olympic record holder, speaking to BBC Sport on Briton Max Burgin's chances in the final:

"He looks really good. He has had a solid semis. It's a very wide open race depending on how these guys are going to take it.

"If they are going to go hard or if they are going to go tactics. If they are going to go tactics then anybody can win."

Six of the eight Olympic finalists have made it through – including the three medallists.

Emmanuel Wanyonyi of Kenya is the Olympic gold medallist and quickest this year, while defending world champion Marco Arop will be hoping to celebrate more than just his 27th birthday. Algeria’s Olympic bronze medallist Djamel Sedjati is also in contention.

Quickest in the heats was Ireland’s Cian McPhillips with a national record of 1:43.18. “I have huge confidence coming into the final,” he admits.

And what of Max Burgin’s chances? He’s fourth quickest in the field this year, behind the three Olympic medallists.

There's one more final on track tonight - and could it deliver another medal for GB?

Katarina Johnson-Thompson speaking to BBC Sport on having her mum in the crowd: "It means the world going back to 2021 for the covid games, she was so far away.

"When I know she's in the stadium I know I can share that moment with her. It creates memories that will last a lifetime. This is exactly what I do it for, to share these moments with my mum."

On how she's found her year so far: "It's been physically and mentally exhausting. It's hard to get yourself up for the fight again knowing how hard it is. I said last year as long as I'm competitive I'll be here. In 2016, I remember I said 'this is the last time you'll see of me'. I say this when I win and I say it when I lose, give me a month off and I'll be asking when training is."

When asked whether this is it for her career, she said: "I don't know, you caught me in a bad moment."

Katarina Johnson-Thompson speaking to BBC Sport after securing a bronze medal in the heptathlon: "I have no words. I'm still in a bit of disbelief. This season has been so difficult. I've been trying to tally up the amount of starts I've had as a senior international and I think I got up to about 18 from 2012, indoors and outdoors.

"I've done this so many times it doesn't get any easier and if anything I had the least confidence coming into this. It really does mean the world to me."

On why this specific bronze medal is so important to her: "I've been through it in this stadium. It holds so much emotion and to finish the 200m yesterday meant the world and to finish with a medal this time around I can't put into words the full circle moment I've just been through."

Here's Kat...

Surprise leader Juleisy Angulo of Ecuador continues to lead into the final round of the javelin.

Can she secure the South American nation's first gold of these championships?

Here's the leader - Kyle Garland of the United States runs in heat two.

He's a big gentleman and he gets out-run by three athletes on the final straight, finishing in 48.73 seconds.

Niklas Kaul of Germany is first in 48.13.

Jenny Meadows
Former 800m World Championship medallist on BBC TV

Jenny Meadows on Great Britain failing to qualify for the men's 4x100m relay final: "There isn't [an excuse]. There is a responsibility of the incoming runner to put it in the hand but he [Jona Efoloko] couldn't reach the hand, the hand had gone.

"They do have so many checkpoints they know when to start the run up. It's just hugely disappointing. When you see it go so well for three-quarters of the race, it's disappointing that they couldn't finish it off."

Earlier, the GB men's 4x100m team endured a nightmare as they failed to finish in their heat.

BBC pundit Jenny Meadows has been performing the autopsy.

Ecuador's Juleisy Angulo has put a cat among the pigeons by leaping into the lead with a mighty throw of 65.12m. She is followed by Australia’s 2023 world bronze medallist Mackenzie Little, with 63.58m.

The much-fancied Adriana Vilagos however is out - only in eighth place after five throws, she will not be among the top six who progress to the final round of throws.

Karel Tilga of Estonia takes the first 400m heat, which only features five athletes after two competitors dropped out.

Lindon Victor of Grenada had been leading but lagged coming towards the finish line.

Former 800m World Championship medallist on BBC TV

Jenny Meadows on Katrina Johnson-Thompson securing a bronze medal in the heptathlon: "I think the older you get, you realise how hard it is to get a global medal and she's added another one.

"I love seeing that raw emotion and you don't see it too much from Katarina. A global medal is phenomenal. It was to the wire. It was just so exciting."

Dame Jessica Ennis-Hill
Three-time world heptathlon champion on BBC TV

Dame Jessica Ennis-Hill on Katarina Johnson-Thompson winning a bronze medal in the heptathlon: "You can see the emotions have kicked in. I don't think I've ever seen it where the scores are the same. The relief she must feel must be so huge.

"I think in previous years people thought has she got it to give in these final events. Over the years, she's grown and grown and her perfomances have improved massively.

"We all knew she would come and fight in this 800m. She will always push herself out of her comfort zone. She fought and that's what you want you, you want every athlete to come out here and perform and that's what Katarina always does."

KJT is speaking to BBC Sport now, we'll bring you her full quotes shortly.

"I always say this is the last you'll see of me, then I always come back," she says.

So she is asked, is this the last we'll see of her?

"Oh I dunno..." she says, then breaks down laughing.

Something tells us she'll be back.

Into the final event of the day in the decathlon - it's the 400m.

We'll have three heats here in this, the fifth of 10 events.

Kyle Garland of the United States leads the standings, with Sander Skotheim of Norway and Leo Neugebauer of Germany in second and third.
