What are you taking about a minor placing? Top non-African, 5th in a Final, nailing what her coach expected her to race and executing like a pro. Three Americans in Final. It was awesome and my daughters loved it. To be that close to the World Record holder and greatest female long distance runner of all-time in Gidey is just an amazing performance.
LOLOL if you don't consider FIFTH to be a minor placing you are simply proving my point.
No comment on your daughters loving the race, except that if they understand anything at all about racing they know that America was irrelevant in this one.
What's going on fella? Why are you belittling people ? What's making you so angry?
BBC TV: Bol claiming that the lactic acid in her system probably contributed to her falling but she doesn't really know. It's pretty hilarious - BBC have recruited an Irish commentator and some of the Dutch team appear not to understand what she's asking ..thick Dublin accent?
This deal of sprinters getting to raise their hand and reset the start sequence needs to end.
I'm convinced 90% of the time they are just trying to psych each other out, like they did under the old false start rules. It wastes their own and everyone else's time.
They're responsible for their own blocks, being able to get into them and set. If they have a problem pulling that off, it's their own fault and they should have trained better. These are supposed to be elites who have done this countless times and are experts at it.

The only thing getting belittled is the idea that making a final is a great thing for a wealthy country of 330 million. No medal, no praise.
