ATHLETICS: Australian athletics team captain Steve Solomon has praised the ongoing performances of the track and field team at the Olympic Games, with the 28-year-old competing in the semi-final of the 400m on Monday night.
Crossing the line in 45.15 seconds after running a personal best of 44.94s in his heat on Sunday, Solomon will not progress to the final but takes confidence in the team that is building around him as conversations about beyond Tokyo 2020 begin for him.
