1240: Ireland's Paul Hession comes through strongly to win the final 200m quarter-final in 20.50. The semi-finals are on Wednesday. Hession is a member of Athenry Athletic Club and has put his medical studies on hold for the moment, and he tells the BBC:

"I put a bit more in; I was more up for it and it was good to win the heat and get through in a good lane for the semis. I have to believe I can make the final - it's going to be close but I have to stay positive and run my best race."

Best of Luck on Wednesday!
