Not long to go for the men's 1500m Olympic final. Kerr is not short of self-confidence.

First time Ive heard of him was the interview they just played on BBC, he's certainly no shrinking violet

NoWordForFluffy · 06/08/2024 19:48

I think his main opponent (whose name escapes me) has a similar personality!

Never heard of him until 10 mins ago and now I’d prefer us to lose a medal than for him to take this gold 🤢 What an ego!

I think you are right!

I’m sure many professional athletes are full of confidence, not sure they would do it otherwise.

Yes! That's the one!

AuntieJoyce · 06/08/2024 19:51

Come on Josh

Fairyliz · 06/08/2024 19:51

Hope the Italian wins he looked really nervous.

AuntieStella · 06/08/2024 19:52

Amazed that Ingebritson has gone out are at the front

wonder if one if the Kenyans can pull off a shock?

NigelHarmansNewWife · 06/08/2024 19:52

Seb Coe raced Ingebritson's father

I guess we find out now!

I don’t like the uber confidence but maybe it’s justified….we’ll find out!

NoWordForFluffy · 06/08/2024 19:53

Maybe it's partly an act. Like boxers do to try to spook opponents?

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 06/08/2024 19:53

What a race

AuntieStella · 06/08/2024 19:54

Wow!!

MouseofCommons · 06/08/2024 19:54

Pah

NigelHarmansNewWife · 06/08/2024 19:54

Kerr gave up when the American kicked forward

He’d pushed too much too early
