#London2017 | Makwala clears to run 200m

The IAAF has received a written request from the Botswanan federation for Isaac Makwala to compete in the 200 metres.
Given his quarantine period expired at 14:00 hrs today (9 Aug) and following a medical examination which has declared him fit to compete, we have agreed under our existing rules that assuming he makes the qualification time, he will run in the 200m semi-final round this evening.
Makwala is required to run a time of 20.53 or faster to advance to the semi-finals. He will run at 18:40hrs this evening on his own in lane 7, which was his original lane draw in the opening round.
No athletes already qualified for the semi-final will be adversely affected
