Chat with us live during the women's 100-meter hurdles final when the USA's Lolo Jones tries to make her big Olympic comeback. Jones, as you may recall, was a favorite to win gold in 2008 but clipped a hurdle, stumbled and finished seventh.

The three-time USA indoor champion and a two-time world indoor champion has become a crowd favorite after successfully recovering from spinal surgery last summer and battling to make the 2012 Olympic team.

Americans Kellie Wells and Dawn Harper will also be in the field of eight. The race is slated to start at 4 p.m. ET.
