Men's 110m hurdles final
For the United States, the gold medal at this end was pretty safe, certainly when Grant Holloway was on the track.
But the Jamaican parchment Hansel, a bronze medalist from London, had other plans;
He came first with 13.04 seconds, won gold and stunned Holloway, who in the first Olympics of his career won "only" a silver medal with 13.09 seconds.
The American sprinters continue to disappoint and are with 0 (!) Gold medals after the allotments for the 100 meters, 200 meters, 400 hurdles, 110 hurdles and messengers.
Jamaican Ronald Levi completed the podium trio when he stopped the clock at 13.10 seconds.
Gold: Hansel Parchment (Jamaica) - 13.04
Silver: Grant Holloway (USA) - 13.09
Bronze: Ronald Levai (Jamaica) - 13.10
A tremendous achievement.

Men & # 39; s Triple Jump Final (Starting at 5:00 AM)
In the absence of gold medalist Mario Christian Taylor, his deputy Will Clay, who also finished second at the 2019 Doha World Championships, will hope to climb one place up the podium.
Who should give him the biggest fight are the Portuguese Pedro Fishardo, who holds a personal best of 18.08 meters, and Hugo Fabrice Zango from Burkina Faso, the bronze medalist from Doha who is responsible for the world result of the year (18.07 meters).
Will climb one place on the podium?

Men & # 39; s Iron Ball Finals
American Ryan Cruiser did it again!

His compatriot Joe Kovacs, who won silver in Rio, won the silver medal again and New Zealander Thomas Walsh completed the same podium as he did in Rio.
Gold: Ryan Cruiser (USA) - 23.30
Silver: Joe Kovacs (USA) - 22.65
Bronze: Thomas Walsh (New Zealand) - 22.47
Do it again.

Women's pole vault final (starting at 13:00)
At its first Olympics, reigning world champion Angelica Sidorova hopes to win gold and is also the favorite to do so.
Greek Katrina Stephanidi, who won gold in Rio, will try to retain the title after finishing third at the last World Championships.
Who might provide a surprising fight is American Katie Negotti, also in her first Olympics, having set the world result of the year (4.95 meters).
Try to keep the gold.

Men & # 39; s 400 m Finals (15:00)
All eyes will be on Steven Gardiner, the reigning world champion, in his first Olympic final after being knocked out in the semi-finals in Rio.
The best personal record among the eight competitors belongs to Michael Norman (43.45 seconds), the talented American, in his first appearance at the Olympics.
The person responsible for the world result of the year (43.88 seconds) is Kirani James, the gold medalist from London and the silver medalist Mario, who although he finished only fifth in the last world championship but has already proven that he tends to rise to the highest positions.
Big surprise.
