Two Dutch runners fall over just metres from victory in two different races, while Rohan Browning makes it into the 100m semifinal in Budapest.
abc.net.au/news/world-athletic-championships-rohan-browning-semifinal/102752546It was a case of double Dutch disaster on day one at the World Athletics Championships, with superstars Sifan Hassan and Femke Bol both crashing to the track in the shadow of the finish line with gold medals seemingly in their keeping.
Hassan had won the 5000m and 10,000m titles at the Tokyo Olympics and was the 1500m bronze medallist."I hope I am not crazy. I will need to look at the replay to see what exactly happened."Bol suffered a remarkably similar fate less than half an hour later. Browning was pipped for first place in his heat in a photo finish on day one in Budapest, with Botswana's Letsile Tebogo credited with the win after they both stopped the clock at 10.11 seconds.
