It looks like she was saving some. Didn't look like she was tying up to me.

What the hell did i just watch
Wtf
Nuclear Bomb from SML
Strolling through 48.29 is insane
If she still has more in the tank, she’s 100% running 47 in the final

Hand-timed a 23.5 for SML thru 200.
I eyeballed 23.2. She was a high 23 on the heats--by my eyeball. I figured she was going for USA record when I saw that.
Sub 48 in the final, joining the great names of Marita Koch and Jarmila Kratochvilova, hmm...
I figured SML in outside lane would run an honest race of like 49.2
Thought the clock must be wrong at 48.2 with the chill last 40m 👀
All Time Women's 400m List (in final)
1 47.60 Marita Koch
2 47.99 Jarmila Kratochvílová
3 48.14 Salwa Eid Naser
4 48.17 Marileidy Paulino
5 48.25 Marie-José Pérec France
6 48.27 Olga Bryzgina
7 48.29 Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone
What a final we have on our hands. Hopefully Naser and Paulino can push McLaughlin a bit
Mary Lady better be sayin' her prayers cause she's gonna need a lotta help.
SML girl, at least make it less obvious.
Sydney please, we need to see this WR broken.

We really don't.
Now we know what she's been doing, shutting herself off since the nationals....I bet Kersees medicine cabinet is empty!
Struggling to break the US record all season and then turns up jogging at the end of a 48.29...come on girl, don't make it so obvious.

Sydney always does her very best when it matters! The WR is in danger
The question I have is: if people weren’t suspicious when Sydney chopped 2 seconds off the 400mH WR in four years (which had just been broken in 2019), why would you now be suspicious when she’s running 48 low
Based on logic, the 50.37 is even more suspicious than a 48.29
Whittaker?
Floppeker.
If Paulino has an inside lane, she could plan an unseen attack at the end.

48.29 STROLLED, JUST RUN THE WR IN THE FINAL PLEASE
It will be juiced.
Based on the time differential from the men’s 400mh and flat 400m times, Sydney should be capable of running a 47.47
Which honestly wouldn’t surprise me after seeing her semi
