Unfortunately have to agree with this one; based on recent performances had a lot more to give physically but all that pressure, going up against flippin' SMH, crushed her before the race started. Like going up against Godzilla basically.
Such a cool 5 minutes for 2 of my favorite athletes. Tara winning the long jump followed by that race and Anna C and the silver medal lining! How does it get any better than that?!
Tara, Syd, and Anna are three of the most....marketable athletes at the games, too. Sheesh.
What happened to Bol? That was an uncharacteristic performance from her. Did she go out too fast the first 200m causing her to fade in the final 100m or so? Would be interesting to see her 100m splits from this race and her 51.30 PR (not counting the altitude aided 50.95).
I think she panicked after going out of the blocks quite slowly, then did too much to make up for it, and didn't have anything left for the last 100m.

LOLOL, nice. All three definitely have taken long swims in the gene pool, that's for sure.
