Australia's national championships delivered two stunning 1500-meter races that might have reshaped the global landscape heading into the summer. Nineteen-year-old Cam Myers soloed a 3:29.85 from the front — a wire-to-wire masterclass almost no one in history has matched. In the women's final, Claudia Hollingsworth unleashed one of the fastest closing laps ever recorded, clipped Jess Hull in the process, and was disqualified despite crossing first. Sam Mattis finally erased a steroid-tainted 45-year-old American discus record, at a wind-aided facility in Oklahoma that's rewriting the all-time lists. And a New York Post exposé about an NFL coach sparks a heated debate at least from Rojo.
