F*!#KDf Unbelievable! Sifan Hassan going for the triple, falls on final lap, gets up, and still beats the entire field

if ANYONE was in doubt. Hassan is the goddamn BOSS!

if she was paying attention to other races, she should have walked the last 400 and then protested. They probably would have advanced her straight to the final, skipping the semi altogether.

Wow! I hope she didn’t get hurt. Find out for us ASAP, please.

Friggin' unbelievable!!! Just wow!!

It’s a legendary move. No complaints, no appeals. She just picks herself up and runs on pure hate passing everyone.

That was awesome!

if that doesn't scream doping idk what does

Yeah she was impeded through no fault. Walk to the finish line and protest. But leaves it to chance.

It screams running at a pace that is so easy because it's 13 seconds off your PR.

Impressive

Could have settled for top 6 but can't stop on pure hate

When she got up I just knew she'd be fine. Lol...

Legend already but I guess if she doesn't get multiple medals no one will care. She's got the 5k final in 12 hours.

Thoughts on how much that will affect her?

The other big names in the 5 should push the pace hoping Hassan is fatigued but I doubt that happens with the weather conditions

Not ideal for preserving energy for an Olympic triple, but it was a legendary move and good decision making on her part not to leave anything to chance esp. given recent inconsistency of rule enforcement.

Definitely a pure hate move. Nonetheless, this event is still Kipyegon's to lose. It's Faith's world, and we're all living in it.
