Has she lost a race since the 2019 Doha Final? Maybe a Diamond League event? I am curious what her win streak in the 400H is. She won the 2020 Trials and I know she won all three rounds in Tokyo.

Unlikely. She races like five times a season. And she’s already getting bored with the event.
No shot Sydney races 122 times in her career
Off the top of the two dome. At 400 hurdles,
2 wins in 2022 (Nashville, Trials, Worlds)… 5 including heats
3 wins in 2021 (Nashville, Trials, Olympics)… 7 including heats
0 wins in 2020 (no races)
If not missing any, a whopping 5/12. Going to take a minute. Edwin 107/122
I doubt she even runs half that many 400h races.
Soon she'll start running some 400's and maybe some 200's. Then retire in her 20's. She won't be like Allyson Felix and try to stretch her career until her mid 30's.
She won't run 122 400h races in her career.
So nope
Bol will beat her in the final sooo........
No. Since she only runs like 8 races a year it would take too long
If she gives glory to god a few times in each post-win interview, god will get tired of the sin of glory gluttony well before 122, and might decide to impregnate her immaculately just to get her off his chest.
If she does then we will be hearing a lot about Shacarri between now and then and not too much about Sydney, unfortunately. The media is all about clicks and money. Humans are toys to them.
2024: shacarri has finished 7th in her semi final 100m heat while Sydney breaks her WR and wins the hurdles but Shacarri get 100x more articles and TV mentions about her.
Moses raced so much partially to cash in on his efforts as an athlete while he could.
Sydney got a mega contract and does not need to race to cash in, and she knows she can cash in after she is done running.
She doesnt race enough and will be bored of track soon if she isn't already. After 2024 she will retire and start a church with her husband.
Is racing around 12 times per year unusual for a hurdler?
You are probably right. Sydney has mentioned several times about wanting to work full time at her church.
No. She’s already been beaten in the 100hs but if we’re just counting 400hs then I don’t think she ever gets to that many races. Plus there’s talk of her going after the flat 400ms.
Just curious, what is a mega contract in t&f?
Bol maybe. I passed Muhammad on a sidewalk outside the stadium doing stride analysis w/ her coach. She looked happy, confident and sharp with an easy bounce & pop to her steps. Smiling even, the way Sid used to in her UKY days. Dalilah ftw.
Seems pretty unlikely unless Sydney somehow DQs or gets hurt. The 52.17 she ran in her semi-final heat was the 8th fastest time ever and she didn't even look like she was trying that hard. Low 52 could potentially win in the finals... At this point I'd be mildly surprised if Sydney break the WR in the finals...
My prediction:
1) Sydney 51.35
2) Bol 51.92
3) Muhammad 52.65
it will take her 39 seasons to reach a streak like that
I’m a D2 female runner. Our coach explicitly told us not to visit LetsRun forums.
Great interview with Steve Cram - says Jakob has no chance of WRs this year
