Coverage of the fourth day of the World Athletics Championships in Osaka, beginning with the women's hammer qualification. The Americans are expected to dominate in the men's 200m and 400m having filled the top four 200m placings two years ago in Helsinki and also won gold and silver over one lap. In the 200m, Tyson Gay and Wallace Spearmon face the threat of Jamaica's World Junior record holder Usain Bolt, while the main threat to defending 400m champion Jeremy Wariner is likely to be from rejuvenated team-mate Angelo Taylor, a former Olympic champion over 400m hurdles. Britons Andrew Steele, Martyn Rooney and Tim Benjamin also compete.
