our commentator here in sydney said there was another false start in a womans event. she WASN'T disqualified.
so sets a precedent you would think.

obviously less advantage in the 1500m than a 50m sprint.

like the disqualifying in the badminton, i see the olympic officials as strong and reasonable.... as opposed to FIFA.... who have no idea Cool

I don't know the mechanics of a swimming start but surely even if each blokes has a starter noise then the swimmers either side would hear it and go.  Bring back the starter on the gun imo
