SML has always had high test levels, that's why she has the androgenous look of a model and dominates the way she does
still XX though and has dominated since day 1 in high school
she's a natural athlete
People said the exact same thing about Marion Jones. She was a high school prodigy.
Coincidently they have very similar physiques.
False equivalency.
SML has been consistent at competing at a high level since she was a kid.
Marion Jones stopped competing during part of college, in order to focus on her basketball career at UNC. She then reappeared in 1997 - after a few years out of the sport - with a world-leading time in the 100m that year.

THAT is fishy.
False equivalency? Why because it refutes your child prodigies don't dope argument?
SML ran 55 for 400mh at age 14. She ran 52 in the semis here.
You think she needs to dope “to the gills” in order to run moderately faster than she did as a 14 year old?
She was a child prodigy, right? She's dropped 5 seconds off her 400mh time.
Quincy Wilson - another child prodigy ran 44.20 for 400m if he drops 5 seconds off his 400m time that's 39.20 seconds for 400m.
Now do you see how ridiculous her time drop is?
You are comparing apples and oranges. Didn't you people go to school? Here is how stupid it is. That's like saying a child prodigy ran 11.00s for the 100M at 15 and then improve 5 seconds when they hit 20 years. That would mean they would be running 6.00 seconds for the 100M.

Did you go to school? 100m isn't 400m is it?
A 5 second improvement over 400m for someone that made an Olympic team at 16 is ridiculous.
I get it. She's American and attractive so we look the other way.

Why is a 5 second improvement ridiculous?
You just highlighted the fact she made the Olympics at 16, that means she's a freak athlete
What would be an acceptable improvement for you?
If her PR was 51 something would that be ridiculous?

Yes!!!! Most child prodigies are near their peak at a very early age. They don't continue to improve by leaps and bounds. Why? Because they are already world class or very close to it.
Usain Bolt - Was a child prodigy he ran 20.13 200m as a 16 year old. He shaved less than a second off that time by the end of his career.
He didn't shave 2.5 seconds off his already fast time.

You're seriously suggesting that Sydney should've been close to her peak in HS?
Before she finished growing, gained experience or had access to elite coaching?
By your logic Sydney should never have been able to challenge Dalilah Muhammad
