I am skeptical that Sydney was intending to do both events. If Bobby’s serious about this they can do it in 2027 at Worlds and appeal for a schedule change. I’d hope they’d make the change in that case. Until then, we can’t ignore that theres a bit of a credibility issue here. No double in 2023-5 when that was the plan after 2022 seemingly. Let’s not forget the times Sydney is headlining a meet only not to show up. Bobby also said Mu would be doing an 800/1500 double by LA and we see how that’s going…
The double wasn't feasible from 2023-2025, when it would have required racing on six consecutive days and switching back and forth between events. That shouldn't be held against her.
Sydney missing minor meets isn't the same as missing The Olympics in her hometown. She can be expected to be there unless she has a major injury.
Mu's career derailment has no bearing on Sydney. Their athletic paths diverged a long time ago.
