Through five days of competition in Budapest, Canada remains stuck at one medal: Ethan Katzberg's surprising gold in the men's hammer throw on Sunday. But that could change Thursday as Camryn Rogers, last year's women's hammer throw runner-up, looks poised for another podium after easily qualifying for her final today.

Rogers is one of several Canadian standouts either competing for a medal or trying to advance to the next round of their event on Thursday. Here, in chronological order, is who to watch:

Evan Dunfee in the men's 35km race walk at 1 a.m. ET

Dunfee is back for his second race after placing fourth and breaking the Canadian record in the 20km on Saturday. He finished sixth in the 35km at last year's world championships in Oregon.

Despite missing the podium by an agonizingly thin margin in the 20km, Dunfee said he "couldn't be happier" with that result, which proved the 32-year-old is capable of contending in the new Olympic distance. Dunfee took bronze in the now-defunct 50km at the 2021 Olympics and 2019 worlds, and lobbied (unsuccessfully) for the longer race to stay in the major championships.

Moh Ahmed in the men's 5,000m heats at 1 p.m. ET

Death, taxes and Moh finishing sixth in the 10,000m. One of life's great constants resurfaced Sunday when Ahmed achieved that result for the fourth consecutive time at a major championship.

You might take that as a good sign that the 32-year-old is ready to contend again in the 5,000m (his best event) after placing fifth at last year's world championships. Ahmed took silver at the 2021 Olympics and bronze at the 2019
