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.

If she followed Rio with World Golds in 2017/2019 she would have a higher profile now. Being both Olympic and World Champion is more than a fluke or just being in form for that year. Now given in one of the worlds she had the Achilles injury. But until she doubled up at the Olympics a 3 weeks ago. The 100/200 has never been classed as Elaine era of dominance.

Yeah i noticed that too, even before the 100 final in Tokyo Shelly Ann seemed to have more attention
