THE INSIDE TRACK BY HENRY CLARK: Wayde van Niekerk, the last time he graced the London Stadium track, looked to have the world at his feet. Back in 2017, the South African stormed home to win the Olympic 400 meters gold in Rio, just a year after putting on a much more convincing show to win Olympic 400m gold, smashing the world record held by Michael Johnson. Van Niekerk outlined his aspiration to go where no man had gone before by running a sub-43 seconds 400 meters. He was dissatisfied with adding more medals to his haul.
