Ireland’s Jack Woolley gets under way in taekwondo while Rhasidat Adeleke will run in the semi-final shortly before 8pm
“To have that one under the belt is great,” Sarah Lavin told David Gillick after qualifying for the semi-finals of the women’s 100m hurdles. “I 100 per cent think that’s the scariest round, and the next one is the most difficult because so many girls are capable of making that top eight. You need to be clean and also just go for it, I think that’s hopefully the brave will be rewarded.
So it was funny kind of bartering with myself, ‘come on Sarah, you can do this’, but I do need to be a lot more aggressive, keep myself a lot tighter over the hurdles.” Of course, the downside of being on this morning’s schedule was a strict bedtime last night.
