Mens 100m Semi Finals (Gay vs. Powell)

I would find it hard to guess at this point because the track is the x-factor.
If it truly is the same as U of T, it will be a killer for some. In that case, you simply must relax and stay in rhythm. If you try to fight it, you are done.
For Tyson to have a shot, he must be able to go right from the blocks but keep the relaxed form he showed in round two- 9.98 after giving away at least one and a half tenths shows he can hit his top speed on this track.
The problem for him is to get by with as little stress as possible in the semi cause I doubt his groin has two massive runs in it.
These conditions MIGHT play to Powell because of his power if he has the energy and stays relaxed two more times.
Bolt and Bailey haven’t put out enough to see what they can do with this track yet.
A softer track makes upsets more unlikely IMO but we’ll just have to wait and see.

In what way would it compare with U of T? simply the softness or something else? Cause U of T is polytan surface and berlin i heard did get resurfaced but with some other crap.
