USATF HAS ANNOUNCED a 139-athlete roster for the World Championships in Budapest, August 19–27.
Each athlete is listed with USATF placing in that event.
* = number of previous WC teams, if any (but not necessarily in that event).
Athletes denoted with a ¶ had a bye (aka Wild Card) by virtue of being either the reigning gold medalist or last year’s DL winner.
Athletes denoted with a # did not have an automatic Q-standard and had to become eligible by virtue of a high WA world rankings position.
Marathon team members were selected off performance lists.
As always, selection of the various relay teams will be done by the coaching staffs as the event gets closer. Any athlete on the team in any event is eligible for relay duty.
The team, as of August 07 (there is always the possibility of a substitute filling in for an injured athete):
