She has no individual World medals let alone a gold. That's why she isn't as high profile or spoken about as being completely dominate like Bolt was. 2021 is also her at her absolute prime/peak. So I expect her to get the universal respect that she rightly deserves moving forward.

She won gold in Rio too. Think she's the only female to do the Sprint double in consecutive Olympics.

Elaine doesn't get the hype because she doesn't have the persona like Bolt nor the world records. She should have the records but Flo Jo messed that up for everyone.

Even i'm shocked. Its like he went back home and his wife fixed his slow out of the blocks 100m :heh:

I've never seen degrasse caught when he's in front
He’s always had the raw speed but his mechanics were terrible. Seems like a real cool dude. Happy for his recent success.
