Mawdsley through but Becker out

It's been a busy day for Team Ireland at the World Athletics Championship in Tokyo.

Sharlene Mawdsley's time of 51-point-4 seconds in her heat sees her go through to the 400-metres semi-finals.

Sophie Becker finished sixth in her heat, meaning she misses out on progression to the next round.
