bol should change event she's not going to beat this girl
like many of the americans very suspicious though - never runs outside the usa unless it's olympics or world champs - hardly runs anywhere in fact then comes out and smashes the wr |

Remarkable performance.

Has been some unbelievable performances from some USA athletes must agree.

By:
McLaughlin-Levrone’s victory tightens her stranglehold on the 400 hurdles and bolsters her case as track and field’s most dominant athlete. She last lost a 400-meter hurdles race in July 2019, a streak of 25 consecutive races.

I guess we will always be suspicious about remarkable performances due to the history of many athletes using performance enhancing drugs in the past and more than likely at these Olympics as well, whether been caught or not.

gonna go out on a limb here: holloway for the high hurdles
|
|
By:
Maybe usa getting back to dominance because of
their college system and others losing position as more drugs are taken out of system. But we will likely never know Noah looked juiced when he came out, the delay at start of 100 likely helped him, but him delaying 200 likely worked against him. |

at least sml and holloway have been doing it for years - hard to explain some of the american performances though |

Could a white man ever win the 100 metres ever again?

yes,if Katie Price was at the winning line with her gash on show.

aye..when his career was finished.

he also failed when ben johnson got caught in seoul - many think he was lucky to be let off

My fave sprinter (if a 200 metre runner is sprinter) was that Italian Pietro Minnea I think he was called. As well as Olympic gold had the world record for yonks and was not bulked up.
Pietro was LEGIT! he passed on (belated RIP) |

ioc voted 11-10 to clear him - not exactly a ringing endorsement

Mcdonald turned out in some pro sprints around north east and Scotland.
Pro athletics was quite a big thing. Malcolm McDonald (Fulham, Luton Town, Newcastle United and Arsenal and Djurgarden) competed at a few Games in the mid 70s. Won the 100 metres challenge at the Gateshead Pro Games in 1976. Running from 5 metres he beat George McNeil (scr.). I n the Footballers 75m McDonald beat Alan Kennedy by half a metre. As a football player, he was capped 14 times for England scoring 8 goals. Taken from... http://www.scottishdistancerunninghistory.scot/runners-who-were-football-players/ .. |

looks tough for kjt now after the belgian's first javelin throw. You would think that the leaders would go at the same time in events that can be affected by wind (not saying that has happened here).
