of Kemboya medals
deprived of Ezekiel Kemboy – one of the greatest athletes in young history of steeplechase. At these Olympic Games the Kenyan tried to win the third gold in obstacle race. Here only the competition was too high. His compatriot Konselsus Kipruto not only won gold, but also updated the Olympic record. Afterwards the American Evan Dzhager finished, and Kemboy came the third.
But on it the history for the Kenyan who before the Olympic Games spoke against discharge of the Russian athletes, did not end. After the judge revealed that in one of the running moments Kemboy took up 3000 meters out of route limits, and it led to disqualification. From Kemboya bronze removed to Frenchman Mekhissi-Bennabad.
And still running was remembered by awful falling of the representative Uganda. Certainly, we often saw that in such races there were collisions and falling, however Dzhakobu Araptani was not so lucky. It slipped directly before a hole and crashed the person into a barrier. Fortunately, Dzhakob to himself did not break anything, but could not finish any more.
Four circles
Other falling couple of days ago happened to the broken-off sheaf in running on 5000 meters. The American Ebbi D'Agostino faced New Zealander Nikki Hemblin. All noted fine gesture of the last who stopped to lift the competitor and to help it to continue a way to the finish to which else there were four circles.
Here only there are doubts, whether costed to the representative of United States of America to continue run. As it appeared, during falling it injured a forward crucial ligament of a knee. In fact one and a half kilometers of Ebbi overcame with the broken-off sheaf. In the final her because of falling brought, but she will not be able to act, of course, and now will be compelled to start restoration.
Competitors Bolt Useyn ran by the final
on August 18 Bolt Useyn reached the final of run on 200 meters. Decisive running will take place in the night from Thursday to Friday Moscow time. Yamayets is full of self-confidence in a campaign behind the eighth Olympic gold. In a semi-final it started in advance over again to look around and reduce speed. The Canadian André De Grass squeezed out of himself everything, trying to catch up with Bolt Useyn, but conceded it the two 100-th. Though, considering that in the final directly there pass two of running, it would not change anything. But, of course, there is a wish to overtake Bolt Useyn to any.

Bolt Useyn
the New queen of sprint
While Bolt Useyn at these Games, Tompson Eleyn already only is going to win the second distance won at distances of 100 and 200 meters. In female sprint there was an alternation of generations. Shelley - Fraser Anne - the Price left a throne, and other representative Jamaica becomes the new queen.
the American pedestal
Up to the final in female barrier sprint at the national team of United States of America was not any gold in running types. However in this discipline initially it was expected that this omission to Americans will manage to be corrected. As a result speech of their sportswomen surpassed even the most courageous expectations.
Breanna Rollins , Nia Ali's and Christie Kestlin (in such order) took the first three places in the final protocol and then began to celebrate with the American flags atilt. Speaking about a full pedestal in the track and field athletics, for certain much remembers the Olympic Games-2004 when Lebedeva, Simagina and Kotova appeared in the first three in long jumps. To Rio de Janeiro long jumps at girls were won by the American – Bartoletta, but in more detail with participation Klishina Darya we told about this final in our material .
the Japanese took offense at a joke
A few days ago the Japanese Hiroki Ogita did not manage to take place in the Olympic final in pole vaults. In one of key jumps it brought down a level the man's advantage. At least from that foreshortening as it was shown, there was such impression. Experts right there explained that actually it brought down a level feet, and all the rest here at anything, but the Internet already was not to stop.
Certainly, the roller with failure of the Japanese athlete scattered very quickly. Here only Hiroki at all did not estimate a joke that disturbs the bad jumper with a pole. Ogita seriously took offense at reaction of fans and asked them to stop discussing parts of his body. However, when he saw an episode, admitted, as itself began to treat this episode with humour.
