Other minor changes except significant corrections to the Heptathlon list, meaning Camryn Newton-Smith in qualifying spot, and Tori West just outside.

Some changes to the Lausanne Diamond league 800m startlists

🔹Hollingsworth has been added to the DL💎 event
🔹Bisset & Oboya race in the 800m "B" event - a head-to-head for that final 800m WCH spot?

Kurtis Marschall vaults early tomorrow morning ...

🧵3/3
🔸Torrie Lewis (200m), Brandon Starc (high jump) & Michelle Jenneke (100mh) jumped a couple - Jenneke needs the time standard (12.74) to qualify.

Still some more Nationals, the regional NACAC comp., plus three Diamond Leagues so those on the cusp have a nervous wait.

🧵2/..
🔸Chris Mitrevski (long jump) now sits safely at #26
🔸Seth O'Donnell (5000m) based on yesterdays race (which didn't make this RTP) sits in 41st out of 42
🔸Heptathlon must have seen two athletes withdrawn, because Camryn Newton-Smith now sits back at #24 (out of 24) & Tori West #27

Heading into the last 10 days of qualifying for Tokyo🇯🇵 World Championships

Upwards moves this week:
🔸Lauren Ryan (5000m) & Ed Trippas (3000m SC) both got qualifiers. Interesting 34 of the 36 qualifiers in the steeple have the time standard, Ed is safe at #24
