Today’s excitement was off the charts! Day three’s events were a rollercoaster of thrills, but stealing the spotlight was the men’s 100m final – a race that had fans across the world on the edge of their seats from start to finish. In today’s edition of Torch Talk, we recap…
– Noah Lyles wins the first Olympic gold of his career by taking the 100m crown over Jamaica's Kishane Thompson. Both men ran 9.79 and the gold was decided by thousandths-of-a-second. American Fred Kerley came through for bronze in 9.81.
– World record holder Yaroslava Mahuchikh won her first Olympic high jump title with a mark of 2.00m. Australia's Nicola Olyslagers won her second straight Olympic silver, while Iryna Gershchenko and Eleanor Patterson tied on countback for the bronze medal.
– Ethan Katzberg won the Olympic gold in the men's hammer with a mark of 84.12m, the second-best mark in Olympic history. It was the largest margin of victory since 1920. Hungary's Bence Halasz took silver and Ukraine's Mykhaylo Kokhan took bronze.
– Grant Holloway posted the fastest time of the Olympic 110m hurdles qualifying by a HUGE margin, clocking a 13.01 to win his heat by 0.41 seconds.
– The women’s 800m finalists were determined: Keely Hodgkinson, Tsige Duguma, Prudence Sekgodiso, Shafiqua Maloney, Juliette Whittaker, Rénelle Lamote, Mary Moraa, and Worknesh Mesele.
