Monday’s Track and Field events don’t quite have the same cachet as the men’s 100m that Usain Bolt won Sunday night, but there’s still lots to look for as five gold medals will be awarded in London’s Olympic Stadium.
2012 Olympics Track & Field: Event Schedule, TV Coverage For Monday
The USA has chances to medal in men’s 400m hurdles and women’s pole vault tonight -- here’s how to catch all the action from London’s Olympic Stadium.
The United States has a great chance of medaling in the men’s 400m hurdles, where three of the eight qualified runners -- Kerron Clement, Angelo Taylor and Michael Tinsley -- are from America. In addition, Jenn Suhr and Becky Holliday will go for gold for the USA in the women’s pole vault. However, there aren’t any Americans in Monday’s premier event, the men’s 400m, where Grenada’s Kirani James is the favorite to bring home his country’s first medal.
