Dalilah Muhammad’s silver medal time was faster than McClaughlin’s record from June. Muhammad was also the defending Olympic champion. Until the U.S. trials, no woman had ever run the 400-meter hurdles in under 52 seconds. Now McLaughlin has done it twice and Muhammad once.

The two are everything that’s good about sports. After McClaughlin’s two world record races, Muhammad was the first to her with a smile and a hug to congratulate her. It’s a rivalry, yes, but it’s not a bitter one. Each knows the other makes her better and it shows.

Both long-hurdle races have entered a new world, hardly recognizable and very exciting. Sidney and Dalilah are great ambassadors in this strange land.

Watched this last night....they had a feed from her old high school- Union Catholic. It was packed.

In the front was a older grey haired woman wearing a Union Catholic shirt and waving an American flag- it had to be a Nun.

Later they showed Sydney the film from Union Catholic. She said, “I seen see my principal (had to be the Nun), I can see my old track coach.”

BTW- Sydney is gorgeous.

BTW- should also add, Sydney was very good but became great when she recently moved to LA and trained under Bob Kersee (Jackie-Joyners husband who also trained Flo-Jo)

Wonderful....God bless her!!

We are seeing a lot of good Americans at these Games - unfortunately, a small number of racial agitators soaked up most of the pre-Olympic headlines and poisoned public opinion.

Good performance.
However, the men's 400m hurdles final was better:

Best race ever? Warholm wins record-setting hurdles race
