Sorry Dutch...Bol gets bronze.

WR with either Syd or Delilah winning, Bol in bronze.
That's the only outcome.
Easy peasy. I’m on fire today.
What race were the commentators watching? They said that 2 runners separated themselves from everyone else when 3 runners did that. And they said that Sydney was the youngest medalist ever in the event even though the bronze medalist is younger.

I thought Bol would get bronze going in but still… 52.03 is no joke and 300m in I was scared she was going to beat Syd
I'm a Bol simp and admit I got a little too thirsty for a moment.
Great race by all these ladies.

Simone was celebrated for bronze...why not Bol?
What an amazing race, very gutsy by all three medalists!

It sure was. The NBC announcers never even acknowledged Bol's existence. I'm a big Dalilah fan but there is no way you can't be happy for Sydney - just a beautiful, classy girl with a boatload of talent.

If she had her name sake long legs you could’ve been right. Are they long lost relative? She had a great basketball name.

Yah you are about as good at predicting as the meteorologist on the news! Never right!
I'm sure the Dutch are celebrating Bol. She ran well. In a world record race 2nd and 3rd gets little attention. There were a half dozen treads on Warholm last night...rightfully so.
I dismissed Bol's chances earlier in this thread and I was correct. She wasn't beating Sydney as long as Sydney didn't fall. But Bol was great, no doubt about that. She deserves all the attention she is now getting.
No sorry.
But a fine race. One of the best, a top 4.
not far off!
