    Can Medi Harris get an upgrade?

    Another potentially brilliant race next with three-tenths of a second covering the top five swimmers in the semi finals. Medi Harris of Wales was second fastest and will be hoping to go at least one better than the bronze she won over 100m.

    Aussie Mollie O’Callaghan already has four gold medals from Birmingham, while Kaylee McKeown has three. Share the wealth?

    That was as impressive a display of sprinting as you will see from Ben Proud. Had it won from the moment he left them all waiting while he got changed...

  3. Hepthathlon number crunchingpublished at 19:55 British Summer Time 3 August 2022

    I have crunched the numbers so you don't have to.

    Katerina Johnson-Thompson has a lead of 136 points over Northern Ireland's Kate O'Connor as the pair head into the 800m - the final event of the heptathlon.

    That equates to roughly 10 seconds at the speed these athletes run the 800m.

    Johnson-Thompson's 800m personal best is two minutes 7.26 seconds, while O'Connor's is 2:11.76.

    So game and gold over KJT?

    Not so quick. The Englishwoman has been a long way off that sort of pace this year, running a pair of 2:19 times. O'Connor's personal best came last year after a couple of seasons of steady improvement. And she is yet to show what she can do over the distance this year.

    There could be a twist in the tale just yet....

    What an awesome swim. Ben Proud rightly the fastest man on the planet. He got everything right. Lewis Burras came back very strong and he deserved that silver medal.

    Women's 100m semi-finals

    Double Olympic 100m and 200m champion Elaine Thompson-Herah simply has too much gas for everyone else in her semi-final.

    That includes England's Asha Philip who ends up down in fourth just behind defending champion Michelle-Lee Ahye.

    She is a champion and she needed to throw with heart and guts - and she delivered.

    That reaction from her just says everything.

    There is always one event that can turn things around.

    21 seconds to go… Expect some lightning fast times and a whole lotta splash as the fastest sprinters in town duke it out for gold next in the pool.

    Lewis Burras and Ben Proud look well placed for England but it could be anyone’s race over the one length…

    Johnson-Thompson hits double toppublished at 19:38 British Summer Time 3 August 2022

    Katarina Johnson-Thompson liked that!

    Her ex-coach Jean-Yves Cochand nicknamed her 'Droopy' because of her hangdog body language when she was in competition. Well, a massive javelin personal best will perk things right up.

    The 29-year-old has just launched it out to 44.33m, an improvement on the 43.93 that she threw en route to World Championship gold in Doha in 2019.

    Northern Ireland's Kate O'Connor has won the javelin with 51.14m, but Johnson-Thompson's above-par performance will give her a decent points cushion heading into the final event - the 800m - at 21:00 BST tonight.

    Well, Wales sprinter Jeremiah Azu did not disappoint in the 100m semi-finals as he finished second in a personal best of 10.15secs to go through to the final.

    He will line up in the final and hope to bring home a medal for Wales.

    With Aled Sion Davies and Harrison Walsh going later in the men's F42-44/61-64 men's discus final, this could be another special night for Wales.

    All this after Olivia Breen delivered gold last night.

    I've seen Sarah Adlington get hug, after hug, after hug at the side of the arena here as she waits to get her gold medal.

    The 35-year-old told me her main emotion was just sheer relief.

    And she's definitely not letting this gold medal out of her sight for a minute...
