00:42of the women's javelin throw. Four gold medals will then be awarded
00:47On the second day of the Athletics Games, a particularly intense program awaits.
00:53and very attractive. The athletes who will take part in the throwing competition have already taken to the platform.
01:01of the javelin while you watch the first series of the quarter-finals on the TV screen. In this
01:06The Solimane, Morgana, Birkmaier, Rudolf, Villar and Krebkina will run in series
01:11and Kaslan. A false start gives us the opportunity to more calmly recap the participants.
01:19in this first match valid for the quarter-finals. We repeat Solimane in the first lane,
01:27Philippines, Morgana, Birkmaier, Germany in third lane, Rudolf in fourth lane, United States
01:33United, in fifth place is Villar, Australia, followed by Krebkina and Haslam, Canada.

01:59also in the final of the 80m hurdles. Alongside Birkmaier, Morgana and in the first lane
02:04Filipina Solimane. In lane six you can also see Krebkina, the Soviet who won yesterday.
02:16the long jump competition with 6.37 which won the first Olympic title. Again
02:25the athletes will have to return to the starting blocks, this time there was a start
02:34anticipated. These are particularly delicate races for those who will be able to compete
02:48the athletes to reach the semifinals. The judge, the starter, invited the girls
02:57to calm down, but the nervousness that these athletes show is understandable. Once again
03:04The starter blows the whistle and orders you to get into the right position. Meanwhile, we tell you that
03:09The women's 100m races began this morning with the preliminary rounds.
03:15The best time achieved this morning was 11.5 obtained by the American Rudolf,
03:21while Leone and Itchina followed Rudolf's time with 11.7. Rudolf is
03:37In the fourth lane, another jump start. First one, then the other, commits violations.
03:48and the judge naturally did not validate the start. This time it was Villard,
03:56Australian Villard, starting early. You'll notice that the judge raised a board
04:04yellow on the block that bears the lane number. With the number 159 you see the crepina that
04:13You already know her from seeing her competing in the long jump yesterday. They're raring to go
04:18the girls. They are in a state of extreme nervous tension. In lane number
04:304 the Rudolf. And here we are again. This time a valid start. We note that the Rudolf is already
04:41clearly in the lead. Second place goes to Crepina. Rudolf takes a clear victory. Second
04:47the crepina and third shoulder Birkmeier and Villard. Let's recap. First Rudolf. Second
04:56crepina. Third place behind Birkmeier and Villard. The top three in this race will be
05:04admitted to the semifinals. Here with number 2 you see Villard who arrived shoulder to shoulder with
05:12Birkmeier while the American Rudolf won with a superiority
05:19even overwhelming. Always with the number 117 you see the black Rudolf who recently
05:27brought the American record to 11 and 4. Rudolf was a bit of a revelation because
05:33It was almost unknown. But Americans don't pay much attention to women's sports.
05:37in recruiting athletes. And only on the eve of the Olympic Games do they conduct selections.
05:43and someone always comes out capable of winning them some title. In Melbourne it was McDaniel
05:49who won the high jump title with 1.65m. She was virtually unknown.
06:001.76 correction. But Daniels was able to win the Olympic title for America in the sector
06:10female and she was an unknown. Now we were saying it was Rudolf, the American Rudolf who in the
06:16selection races she stood out, she won the 100 and 200 meters races and brought
06:20the national record 11.4. Did you see how confidently he dominated this race? He
06:26surpassed Crepkina who is also the world record holder with 11.3 together with
06:32Honti's Stricland, Australia. Honti's Stricland scored 11.3 in 1955 while the
06:39Crepkina set it in 1958. The Olympic record is held by Cadbury, Australia, which set it
06:48in 56,11,4.
