Some noname dude wins the 100m and I didn't even know the final was today :dead:
Woat Olynpics

:dahell:
this was one of the best days of olympics in recent history.

The high jump was historic, the triple jump an olympic record then world record was broken. 100m hurdle olympic record was broken, seeing two of the fastest men to ever run the 400m hurdles in the same heat. Seeing a chinese dude run 9.80 in a 100m race, an exciting 100m final

Aside from Bolt this 100m final was faster than 2016.

This has actually been a pretty great olympics imo
This day/night will go down as one of the greatest in Olympics history for Track and Field.

- WR in the women's triple jump (she destroyed the previous record)
- highest quality Final in high jump history
- One of the greatest upsets in 100m history (Jacobs was 7th= favorite coming into the event).

US haven't been running shyt in sprinting for over a decade. You forgot Usain Bolt?

if anything this might be americas best shot with noah lyles, bednarek and that 17 year old in the 200 on the men side and gabby thomas on the women side
