We just witnessed the greatest day by any nation on a single day at the Worlds. We recap Day 3 of the World Athletics Championships in Eugene, Oregon. Team USA's men swept the shot put. We also unpack the controversial Devon Allen DQ before Grant Holloway defended his 110m hurdle title. Plus the Jamaican women sweep the 100m again, Katie Nageotte and Sandi Morris go 1-2 in the women's pole vault. We also dive into the semi-finals of the men's 1500m.
