But in their stead we’ve got the heats of the men’s 1500m – there are two, and the second features Scotland’s Jake Wightman, the new world champ! William Paulson of Canada will have to wait and see. He’d originally planned to do the 800m here, but then decided it’d be nice to complete a metric-mile double – and he’s right, it would. Athletics: There are eight men in the frame at they come into the home straight, so the world champ steps out and powers home. Both men delivered season’s bests, so will be close at the top of the standings with the shot still to come this morning. Jake Wightman wins and looks so confident is so doing – it’s amazing what a gold medal can do. Athletics: We’ve not been shown the decathlon long jump, but Cedric Dubler, second to Lindon Victor in the 100m, has reversed the order. Athletics: Zharnel Hughes, who won the 200m in Gold Coast only to be disqualified after impeding the runner-up, glides through the field to win his heat easing up. But Dubler, who managed 7.61m, and Victor, with 7.46m, lead the way, both on 1840. The semis are tomorrow and final on Saturday. Cycling: The men’s time trial is away. In the studio, they’ve just been laughing about how nails Denise Lewis is, and I can confirm I’ve been told that too.
