After a hard-fought day of competition during Day 1 of the World Athletics Championships in Eugene, Oregon, the athletes were back at it on July 16 for Day 2.

The Bahamas was represented in only one event during the second day of competition. Both Anthonique Strachan and Tynia Gaither competed in the 100 meters. The top three in each heat and the three fastest times after would advance to the semifinals. Strachan ran in heat one and got off the blocks in 0.147 seconds. She finished 3rd in the heat with a time of 11.08. Gaither ran in heat two and was quicker off the blocks at 0.119 and finished 4^th in the heat with a time of 11.16 seconds.  Strachan was 13^th overall and Gaither was 18^th overall, which was good enough for both to advance.

On the third day of competition on July 17, Shaunee Miller-Uibo took the track for the 400 meters. The top three in each heat and the six fastest thereafter would advance. Miller-Uibo left no doubt about her status, winning the first heat with a time of 51.10. She was 9^th overall out of 41 competitors.

The journey ended for both Strachan and Gaither in the 100 meters. Despite a personal best of 10.98 second, Strachan narrowly missed advancing by 0.02 second. She finished 10^th overall. Gaither’s hopes of becoming the first Bahamian to win the 100 meters ended after she was disqualified for a false start. 

Overall, it was a very respectable showing over days two and three for the Bahamian women athletes.
