Brazier battled hard late to clock 1:43.82 to maintain small q status with one heat remaining. The American was stuck on the rail in traffic late, but found an opening to close impressively.
Notably that was an Ireland national record time of 1:43.18 for McPhillips.
Men’s 800m Heat 3
Emmanuel Wanyonyi and Bryce Hoppel are ready to go, as anticipation builds for the third and final Men’s 800 Meter Heat.

Wanyonyi in 3rd place very early with a spread out pack.
The leaders go 50.40 for the opening lap, that’s the fastest first 400m of all heats.
Wanyonyi slips late, but rebounds to take second overall in 1:43.47 behind heat winner Mohamed Attaoui, who clocks 1:43.18 for the victory.

Women’s 800m Heat 1
In the opening heat, Keely Hodgkinson leaves nothing to chance and leads throughout, winning the heat in 1:59.79.
A solid race for American Roisin Willis, who moved up in the latter stages of the contest to finish in 4th at 2:00.24.
She’ll need to wait until the merged standings are final after the conclusion of the 7th Heat to know if her time will qualify her to the Semi-Final Round.
Women’s 800m Heat 2
Mary Moraa, the defending champion in 2023, is a featured athlete set for Heat 2.
Anaïs Bourgoin and Mary Moraa pull away from the field late to both comfortably advance.
Bourgoin edges her at the line with a mark of 1:58.43 to Moraa’s 1:58.44.
Notably after 2 Heats, Willis’ time from Heat 1 still stands in little q position with 5 races remaining.
Women’s 800m Heat 3
American Maggi Congdon is in the field for Heat 3.
Paris Olympic silver medalist Tsige Duguma is also in the line-up for this one.
Over 60-seconds for the opening lap.
It’s Duguma who goes wire-to-wire for the win in 2:01.54.
Congdon takes second! She goes 2:01.74 to advance.
In continuing to monitor the fate of Willis, with this being a slower heat, she remains in contention for the coveted Semi-Final spot.
Women’s 800m Heat 4
Sage Hurta-Klecker is on the line for Heat 4.
Rain is starting to fall as we’re at the halfway point through the 800m heats.
58.02 for the leaders as they pass 400m.
Switzerland’s Audrey Werro wins the heat in 1:58.43 and Hurta-Klecker matches that time with a 1:58.43 of her own for second and will advance to the Semi-Final Round.
Unfortunately, one of the pre-race favorites, Sarah Moraa got tripped up on the opening lap and could only produce a 6th place finish.
Women’s 800m Heat 5
Heat 5 is upcoming with Great Britain native Gemma Reekie among the featured athletes.
Lilian Odira emerges victorious in Heat 5. The Kenyan delivered a 1:57.86 winning mark.
This was the fastest heat thus far by a wide margin.
Reekie faded to 5th after a strong start, going 1:59.35.
Women’s 800m Heat 6
The rain has really picked up with the broadcast announcers indicating this is the weather outlook for the forecast over the next hour.
The penultimate Women’s 800m Heat is on deck.
Georgia Hunter Bell, from Great Britain, among the notable favorites here in Heat 6.
Hunter Bell asserts herself with 150m to go and holds on at the line to win the heat in 1:58.82.
To check-in on a story we’ve been following, it’s confirmed that American Roisin Willis will not move on to the Semi-Final Round after analyzing merged standing with one heat to go. A great experience, however, here in Tokyo for the Stanford University star.
Women’s 800m Heat 7
One heat remains for the Women’s 800m (Heats) Round.
As we await the gun to sound, it can be confirmed that Gemma Reekie will not be among those who advance to the Semi-Final Round.
Jessica Hull unfortunately goes down hard in the early portion of the opening lap. It’ll be very tough to regain contact with the leaders.
Jamaica’s Natoya Goule-Toppin negotiates the extremely wet conditions to win the heat in 1:59.66.
An unfortunate development for Hull, as she completes her race in last position at 2:13.42.

2024 Olympic gold medalist Beatrice Chebet is in the field, as well. She resides comfortably in fourth place in the early stages of the race.
A 2:57 opening first kilometer for the field.
Still a very tight pack as the athletes navigate through the second kilometer. Both Americans look composed in mid-pack.
The Japanese duo of Tanaka and Yamamoto are establishing the pace for the field of 20 competitors.
A 3:02 second kilometer for the leaders. They’re crossed 2k at approximately 5:59 on the clock.
8-minutes in, it’s Tanaka trying to put some separation on the group with a brief 8-meter lead. Chebet quickly responds to join her.
Four laps to go and it’s still Tanaka and Chebet running 1-2 with the majority of the field still very much in the mix.
Houlihan is battling hard jut over 4k in. The American is jockeying between 4th and 6th place in the latter stages of the contest.
A group of 8 takes it out hard at the bell. Chebet turns it up late, pulling away from the pack and winning in a time of 14:45.59.
The Italiian Nadia Battocletti crosses in 2nd at 14:46.36 and Houlihan punches her ticket to the Finals with a 3rd place result in 14:46.52.
Elise Cranny will not move on. She took 10th place in the heat going 15:00.23.
Women’s 5000m Heat 2
Heat 2 for the Women’s 5000m is up next!
The second 5000m contest of the day features American Josette Andrews and of course the great Faith Kipyegon representing Kenya.
Here we go, gun has sounded. Top 8 move on!
Similar to the previous heat, a home crowd favorite takes it out hard immediately. Hironaka leading in the race’s very early stages.
Now 1500m in, it continues to be Hironaka leads and now well ahead of the rest of the field.
A much more strung out pack here in Heat 2 as opposed to the tightly contested early portion of the previous Heat.
Approximately 6-seconds faster for the leader in Heat 2 after 2k than the morning’s first group.
Now through 3km, Ririka Hironaka, to the delight of the Japanese crowd, continues to create space on the chase pack.
8:57 through 3km for Hironaka with a about a 3:03-3:04 last kilometer for the leader. She leads by approximately 30m.
At 4km now, the pack finally catches the leader with Kipyegon guiding them through. Tsegay also up front now making her presence known.
A lot of traffic at the bell, the athletes are going for it with top 8 placements on the line.
Tsegay crosses the finish first in 14:56.46 with Kipyegon trailing close behind in second at 14:56.71.
Josette Andrews qualifies to the Final!
She goes 14:57.59 for 6th place overall in the heat to safely move on.
