My god. How easy was that for him?
They are playing his song in the stadium.

Awesome from Jakob.
So easy, so in control. Wow Jakob
Thought Fisher was going to jog in for 9th. Nice patience from him
He deserved it, lots of beef, but he is good for the sport
Awesome performance, of course, but did anyone else even WANT TO TRY to beat him?
"Let's wait till the last 800 to try to outrun the 3:26 guy..."
Rojo, will you officially retire the slogan "bad news for Grant Fisher"?
Greetings from Bosnia :)
What was his final 800 split?
This was definitely Jakob's race to win. They should never had let the pace be that slow.
Race would have had to be different but..: if hocker was in that race could have got 2 golds!

As his biggest fan I hope you can retain some semblance of calm. And your first sentence seems to summarize how you feel about him.
Jakob should have run the 10k and 5k
He wins the 10k just as easily.
He will break be the first man under 12:30 for 5k
I never want to hear about how the Ethiopians are gonna push the pace in a global 5000m final again just because they run fast on the Diamond league. Year after year they turn into wimps and get shut out of the medals. 0 medals in the last 4 global 5000 finals
He's unbeatable over 5000. I'm a bit annoyed as I had Kwemoi at 35/1 but the field just played into Jakob's hands. He should move up and do the 5/10 double. He has Farah's skillset and would dominate
Incredible race! I was on the edge of my seat the whole time.
Jakob ran with hate and showed the world he’s in a class of his own in the 5,000.
And Grant Fischer. Damn!
Going how with medals in both 5,000 and 10,000. Beast!

Yea I thought Jacob would go at 800-1200, but he held his cards until everyone started their kick, ice in his veins to wait until he knew. fisher finally got the DP he wanted(double podium)
Fisher > Rupp
8th with 250m to go.
6th with 50m to go.

Nobody close. No one even tried. All running for second place.

Fisher ran to medal which was smart. A couple Ethiopians ran to win, which cost them.
