To me it looked like she started to stumble with about 3 step to go and had to dive to cross the line. It worked for her.

That seemed closer than 0.07 s
Not sure what happened there. Felix had it with 10 to go. Big question is how much the dive helped. Might we now see 8 diving runners?
NBC! Miller won! Stop only talking about Allyson Felix!
From the picture, it looked like they measured from Miller's shoulder, not her torso. They aren't supposed to do that.
Miller would still win with the torso, but she shouldn't have won by .07. Probably more like .03 or less.
0.07s looks about right on the finishing tape pic.
What a finish.
Now pick yourself up, Miller. No need for a spectacle.
Damn! A race for the ages! What an awesome back to back treat those 2 races were. Shiver me timbers!
I mean there's got to be a reason fielders and receivers dive for the ball
NBC IS JUST TALKING ABOUT FELIX FOR COMING IN 2ND, HAHAHA.
THEY WILL DO THE SAME THING WHEN HILLARY COMES IN 2ND!!
No she isn't.
Lavillenie gets 5.75 on his first attempt easily. Good decision to skip the early heights. Kendrick has missed and passed. Kudlicka killing right now with now misses and hasn't skipped a height as well.

No. If my understanding of a 'torso' is correct, I'd say 0.02 or 0.03. They are wrong.
How are those woman still breathing so hard? That honestly doesn't make sense.
Just relied, second time this year Felix has been denied by a dive. She also lost to a dive to be out of the 200 at trails by 0.01.

Her shoulder is part of her torso, and she won by .07 anyway.
Why do we even have an Olympics anymore? All the countries and races are merging together. This is a Global society now. Nation states are a barbaric white concept.

You measure from the chest, not the shoulder. Idiot. Ever actually run a timing system?
This soccer game sucks.
I took him for the bronze. Was nervous when he almost didn't make it out of the heats..
