Gabby Thomas got lane 7, Julien Alfred got lane 8 and Ofili got lane 9.

The ladies who won gold and silver ran on lanes 7 and 8 respectively and still beat those who ran on the lanes 4,5,6.

Going into the finals, the question was whether Julian Alfred, the 100m gold winner would upset Gabby Thomas who had beaten her in the championships already. Every track fan knew that the 1st and 2nd positions were for Thomas and Alfred. Ofili was fighting for 3rd position even before the race started.
Thanks for d education

Always learn how to be strong alone.

what do you mean by her skill is not up to world standard?
Please check the semifinal timing for all the finalists which made them to qualify for the final, she had better return time than 6 of them, only one person had a better time than hers.
Check your picture, you'll see wind +0.0.

It means on the day of the semi final, all the athletes ran faster because the wind was in their favour. Yesterday, the wind was against them, they all generally ran slower.

She was third place after the semifinals. The first and second place maintained their positions at the final.

For her to pray herself into more failure

What she needs is hard work....the level of her skill is not up to world standards ......so she needs to work harder or quit trying.....

6th positions is a bad position....she came in with first bad luck when she was accused and she later took 6th position, what a double bad luck......!!!!
You just typed rubbish

Yeah, I just checked the condition for the other runners' semifinal, you're right.

She is crying because she was robbed by the organisers, she had the 3rd best time in the semifinal, why was she given lane 9 in the finals? She ought to be lanes 4,5, or 6, not 9. If you know the dynamics of sprint race you will understand what am saying. Cheer up Girl, You did well.
Rest! Nobody robbed her. Accept defeat and move on. You don carry your victim mentality enter Olympics.

That was her fastest time, you can't give what you don't have

She even try to represent Nigeria sef, I don't wish for any of my child to represent this pathetic country.


The so-called leaders are so annoying, nothing is working in this sh!thole.

We’re too failing in this country bcoz talents are in the streets while our representatives are doing selections

Our population is over 400million but some countries with little population of less than 1million will be beating us black and blue

You are not sincere
She was coming 1st and 2nd during heats on a lucky run with longer finish time.
There was a heat she came 1st and her finish time was longer than that of someone who came 3rd in another heat.

Her qualification time for the final was ranked 8th and she ran the final on lane 9 to finish 6th
Only a miracle can make her win a medal with this exegesis.
She is a special and dedicated athlete who defiled all odds with aspiration for glory in Nigerian colors.

This hero should be celebrated
She gave her all

All the best compete at final stage, obviously it takes a miracle for her to win. However, the future is bright for her considering her age.

Be strong…train harder.

If she had ran for the 100m it would have prepared her to what is to come.
100m? that one Caribbean country won?
Olympics is very serious matter, though I wish her well, but she wouldn't have won 100m either.

Let her work harder and prepare for the next Olympics

Omo since I have not seen news on nairaland that Nigeria has won a medal, then I will assume we have not won one yet. What about tobi amusan, I haven't heard any news about her recently. It seems her category hasn't begin yet. She seems to be our only hope of a medal.
Where is your house Tobi Amusan won two

There is no country without talent
.
USA are dominant not because they have more talent than any other country.

Their budget for sports and youth development is what is speaking for then.

If you spend the same amount in Nigeria, nothing will change still because of;
Corruption
Nepotism
Quota system
Maladministration
Malnutrition
Politicians

Tears unnecessary.

I already knew she won't win anything. This Olympic will be the first Nigeria comes back empty-handed.

Tinubu's failure is affecting them in far away Paris.

Exactly why our talents are in the streets wasting, we have more talents than all this top countries but it’s impossible to be scrutinized or assembled out due to corruption

It’s a lane draw . Gabby who won her heat was Lane 7. Not even 4/5/6.
Stop spreading rumours like Tinubu bag of rice

Totally, totally agree with you.
I thought I was the only one that noted it. I was cork sure of her being on any of the lanes you mentioned.

Actually, I never expected a glaring injustice at this level especially in the Olympics.
