Righto, that’s it from us for now, but what a night that was. Noah Lyles ran a brilliant 200m semi, setting up tomorrow’s final with Letsile Tebogo, Kenny Bednarek and Bryan Levell also looking mean while, in the women’s event, it looks like a ruckus between Shericka Jackson and Melissa Jefferson-Wooden.

But it was the two 400m finals that really made us feel, Collen Kebinatshipi announcing himself to the world with a dominant run to take men’s gold, before Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone did what we all knew she’d do, adding the flat to her list of events mastered, having left the hurdles in search of a new way to proclaim her genius.

Sean Ingle’s reports will be with us shortly, sh please do check back in here or on-site for those, but otherwise, peace out.
