Gretta is great too! Good luck to them both!

He did not qualify from his heat but he made a personal best.

Yes, it seems Mohamad Siraj Tamim preferred to compete in 200m (instead of 100m).
21"80, it's a good time compared to the Lebanese record (21"58).

Tomorrow, at 5h35 AM (Beirut time), Gretta Taslakian will start her competition in 200m.

Seasons best for Gretta, but no qualification...
