Ran into the buzzsaw that is the Jamaican team. They were just too prepared and primed for this race. Meanwhile, she has been out of race shape for 8 weeks. The optics of her finishing so poorly against the Tokyo podium finishers from was not good. She has work to do, obviously, but I suspect she'll have Eugene squarely in her mind from now on. #singleminded.
Why would she not be focused on this race??
She got the Olympics "taken away" and because of the way she got busted for weed she was in line to have an Insane amount of hype if she even came top 3.
No one has ever lost more money then she has in 11 seconds. She was in line to make it rain if she ran well. Hype and victim porn is the best seller in North America. She lost 1/3 mil on this excess in endorsement opportunity/ public tour for this year imo.
If she didn't take it seriously it basically tells you all you need to know about her. Personally I would have had it circled on my calendar and doing all I could have to prove the haters wrong
