Lina Nielsen progressed to the semi-finals of the women’s 400m hurdles while Jessie Knight has to race in the repechage (second-chance) round.

Tade Ojora did enough in the men’s 110m hurdles to go straight through to Wednesday’s semi-finals while Jacob Fincham-Dukes qualified for the men’s long jump final on Tuesday.

Lizzie Bird dug deep to make sure she finished in the first five of her women’s 3,000m steeplechase heat and booked her place in the final, which is also on Tuesday.
