00:00Asimota, he goes in lane 6, we've done the heat of the Olympic Games a couple of years back, but
00:05he's a 10-10 man this year.
00:08There is the full line-up for this third heat of 11 in the men's 100 metres.
00:12Jeremiah Azu probably starts here as favourite, he's a 9.97 performer at his best.
00:17That was a couple of years ago.
00:19He is an indoor specialist, very one.
00:22He's had a busy season of racing, based in Stockholm, over 200 metres.
00:27Although he was disqualified there, he is very much a 60 and 100 specialist.
00:32Dina Thinduwara goes in, eyes with seal of Papua New Guinea.
00:42Good start from Azu.
00:44Asimota chasing hard, but Azu leading by a metre or more at the moment.
00:47Good running over in lane 2 by Thinduwara.
00:50But Azu takes this one, closing down him in the last 20 metres was Asimota of Canada.
00:55Winning time, with a 1.7 win, was by Azu.
01:00And that one, unofficially 10-09.
01:05Waiting for that mark to come through.
01:0610-10 he's been given, Azu.
01:08His winning time.
01:10And again, have to emphasise, we don't know, with only 3 out of 11 heats down, who's going to have
01:15qualified for tomorrow's semi-finals.
01:18It's a bizarre situation.
01:19I know a few eyebrows have been raised about it.
01:22Winning your heat doesn't guarantee you anything as yet.
01:25The semi-finals tomorrow night's at 7.36.
01:28And the final, two hours later at 9.40.
01:31The last event of the second day.
01:33You'd expect with a 10-10, 10-10, that should see him through.
01:39But the way these athletes are coming out this morning, you just don't know.
01:42He gets a good start, Jeremiah, doesn't he?
01:46But he's very, very quickly put under pressure.
01:48But Azu is in the closing stages of the race.
01:51But he holds his form beautifully into the last, sort of, 10-15 metres and just crosses the line.
01:57You can see here, he's still nice and relaxed as he comes down.
01:59Even though he would have sensed the Canadian athlete coming up on his shoulder,
02:03he knows he's done enough to take the race.
02:06But, of course, it's about the time.
02:08He's got to push all the way through that line.
02:11Yeah.
02:13Azu Mocha, 10.16.
02:14He'd probably be all right with that.
02:16Remember, 17 go through from these 11 heats.
02:18And then Vira Ratna taking third place there with 10.33.
02:25I think he might be struggling.
02:26Although it was a personal best for the Sri Lankan.
02:29Brilliant run from him.
02:31But, yeah, really, really tough condition.
02:34There's no guarantee he will go through.
