Australian star Jess Hull has qualified for the 1500m semi-finals, but fans were left fuming after Channel 9 failed to show the race live. The three heats for the 1500m featured three Aussies, including medal hope Hull, who was scheduled for the third of three heats. Hull came into the Olympics in hot form, smashing her personal best in the 1500m by five seconds and recording the fifth-fastest time in history just last month.

“Channel 9 cutting to a surfing replay over showing Jess Hull’s 1500m heat live might just be the stupidest s*** I’ve ever seen in sports producing in my life,” another said. “Um Channel9, Jessica Hull in the 1500m is Australia’s biggest athletics news story this Olympics and you just cut away from her first race?? Embarrassing,” another added. “Did I miss something, Channel9, but did you not play Jess Hulls race live & cut to a reply of surfing?” another added.
