Re: Olympics: Flavour Ofili Cries After Coming 6th In The 200m Finals by frog12: 9:55am On Aug 07, 2024
but her time in the heat should have placed her 2nd

Depriest2020:
She didn't save her best for the last. She was busy taking 1st and 2nd during heat.

I am sure she is likely based on the US. Lol.
Alot of those athletes are abroad based. One of the men's 100m sprinters even works at my place of employment here in the abroad.
Look at your poor English,local scammer grin grin

i see your point

saintokwuluora:
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.

na corruption. they wan sneak in the name of their friends grin


HenryMedia:
If not for the clueless officials in both NOC and the sports ministry, how can some body as good as her be left out of the 100 meters event which could have helped her to prepare for the 200 meters. As it is now, maybe nobody will be punished for that omission.

No wonder our athletes are changing nationality.

If she had been on an inside lane (like 3 or 4), she would have won a medal. The last lane is terrible because seeing your rivals running fast would spur you to move faster. But in that last lane, she did not see anyone. It was when they were on a straight line and were seeing each other that she managed to catch up a little. If they all had a few more meters to run, she would have gotten the bronze

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......!!!!
grin hardwork cannot bestow on u athletic talents. U either gifted or u not. Chikena grin

grin Lie. Compare her personal best, with the personal best of the person that took bronze. U will understand say, athletics no be by effort. grin

Better days ahead. 6th position today, 1st position another day! You will get there soon.

At least, two athletes are behind.

grin Bad workwoman blames her tools. All the lanes are of equal distance. They are each 200meters in length. Some people prefer to run blind sef! Las las u cannot be faster more than you are fast🤣

No that was not it
Se was drawn in lane 8 which is not a good lane to draw in a 200m race

Naaah
Lane 8 at the curve requires much more effort that a lane 456 in a 200m race
I knew immeyshe was drawn in lane 8 that it would require a miracle compare to those who were packed in the middle.
If you had seen the race when she came out of that curve she was able to accelerate but the others who had come out that curve earlier had gone ahead ahead

The best place to enjoy those curvesis in a 400m race everybody will tackle his curve at one point in the race

Actually she can if she trains better
She has ability to accelerate her speed in the closing stage of a race and to use that style requires serious work because of the level of competition she encounters
Even Richardson flunked her race which was unbelievable.she actually lost concentration in coming out of her block which lead to the Gabby winning the race with ease

Even Jamaica did not have an athlete in the final of the 200m (first time in history)

so you believe thats a 21 year old lady

Cheer up girl. You are an Olympian and no one can take that away from you, and at 21 years of age, there are still more tournaments, endorsements, and even Olympics ahead.

Even the 100m menfinal was by Gods help that lyles was able to win
Lyles was actually no where in the beginning and see rocket legs working in overtime
At the very last second o
The competition was staring him down in the heats was no where.a totally different person from Jamaica was the one blazing like Ferrari but his style of finish edged him out.
So ofili should take hearts.it requires very hard work to win at this kind of stage

grin U think athletics is Formula 1 cheesy
Gabby Thomas who won gold was in lane 7.
In 200m, the athletes are positioned such that the disadvantages of the curve is eliminated. Lane 8 will get to the curve ahead of lane 4,5or 6. They stand at different distances to the curve for a reason. She F-ed up. Simple. Maybe she is not a natural 200m athlete and went in cos she couldn’t get 100m or so. Stop wyning grin

lolz, he thinks it secondary school relay here where you cross lane anyhow you like...even if you are in lane 32,it all same metres measured
badoh:
If you're a fast runner and dem put you for lane 9, you go still come first, so brother your analogy no work here.

Some start early and finish poor. They able to time the gun. It’s a gift. But some go at the gun and still win nonetheless like Usain Bolt

The race is 200m. No lane is longer than the other. That’s why the athletes don’t stand in the same position before takeoff. Some stand closer to the curve, some stand farther from it. It’s to make all lanes even
Re: Olympics: Flavour Ofili Cries After Coming 6th In The 200m Finals by frog12: 11:09am On Aug 07, 2024
