Sydney McLaughlin shattered her world record by a whopping 0.73 seconds Friday, blazing through the 400-meter hurdles in 50.68 seconds for her first career gold medal at world championships.
“Honestly, I just wanted to run and go for it,” she said. “That last 100 really hurt.“
Since then, either she or Muhammad have broken it at every major meet: Muhammad at 2019 worlds , then McLaughlin at last year’s Olympic trials , the Olympics , nationals this year , and, now, this. Like McLaughlin, Miller-Uibo has dominated her race over the past year-plus. Like McLaughlin, this was Miller-Uibo’s first world championship. She beat Marileidy Paulino of the Dominican Republic by 0.49 seconds for a repeat of the same 1-2 finish as in Tokyo last year.
Norman received massive applause from the nearly full stands, which saw the U.S. win medals Nos. 23 through 26 on Day 8.
