What a disgrace! Martinez, who appeared to be a lock for top 3, gets clipped from behind by Montano and NBC doesn't even mention it, but instead chooses to focus on Montano's absurd theatrics?!? Just appalling.

Why hasn't Montano been disqualified?

Unfortunately, she took away Martinez' chance of going to Rio.

dont forget ludlow was also significantly affected...stumbled and bumped out to lane 4 or something? they hafta re run this thing

My boy Craig Engels coming in 4th!!! watch out for him!!!

Not to mention running in the outside of lane one after taking a several meter lead and having wide open space.

Too bad a doper won

shut up. Realistically, without that fall, the qualifiers would have been Wilson, Martinez, Grace/Williams/Ludlow.

Also, Charles Jock FROM THE DEPTHS OF HELL!

So happy this guy is finally making a team. A guy who looks like that was going to run fast eventually.

I don't know. Need to see it again, but looked to me like Martinez might have started the chain reaction, clipping Wilson (who escaped unscathed), which threw Martinez off stride and precipitated the contact with Montano.

MURPHY MANIA!!!!!!

That's what I'm talking about.

Ludlow got robbed.

I've been rooting for Jock since he ran for UCI. So happy for him!

Montano was completely out of the race, trips Martinez and destroys her chances of making the team, and has the audacity to make the race all about her. Good run by Grace though, feel sorry for Ludlow finishing fourth twice.

Anyone have a good shot of what happened. I looked a couple times on the stream and I could tell if Martinez stepped on someone or was clipped from behind. Martinez looked like lock til then and I though Ludlow was making a good move and then lost a lot of momentum. No way of knowing how thing turned out. Hope Martinez can refocus and run a good 1500m
