Julien Alfred Sprints To Gold In 100m, Femke Bol Splits 47.93 l FloTrack Podcast (Ep. 676)

[@GongGhuru]

Congratulations St Lucia 🇱🇨 One Love from jamaica 🇯🇲

[@jessicaT12345]

Julien!!!!!! She dusted everyone!

[@propixelsmedia]

Dusted for sure - lets goooooooo Juju!!!

[@QuamfyMarc]

Femke Bol is in form OMG. Beating the US mixed relay team at the Olympics is huge! Congrats Femke lightening Bol(t). 😂

[@boringlifeofateen]

The question is, can she challenge Sydney for that gold? Sydney has not run any relays or anything yet so she's fresh. Femka just ran 47.9 so will that cost her the gold in the 400m hurdles? We'll see... Femka obv did the right thing to run the mixed 4x4, but I have a feeling her running the relays will cost her the 400mh gold.

[@QuamfyMarc]

@@boringlifeofateenFemke have enough time to relax and train during thats series and semi final. She will be ready for final. Already won Gold so her spirit will be high. Sure Sydney is favorit but with that huge 47.9s split a good lane draw and little bit Rain as today will help her to surprise us again.

[@ghsense2626]

​@boringlifeofateen she will beat Sydney and shatter the world record

[@ronniejohnson196]

The US 4x400 Mixed Relay Team lost the Finals Gold, Yet They>Set A World Record In The Preliminary.

[@ronniejohnson196]

@@boringlifeofateen Agree. Femke is a workhorse for Her Team! Thus; That definitely could cost Her against Sydney!

[@desiday7070]

Congrats Julien Alfred and the Island of St Lucia from Jamaica 🇯🇲 and my Brother is married to a St Lucian so even better..

[@vj2411]

Julien won the Olympics even before it started, Shacarri didn’t let her win the heat. Only USA thought she would win.

[@MariaMariamuzieklove]

Femke Bol in the pouring rain🧡😊

[@devongetman3135]

Let’s call it out. Next year at WC have Sydney run anchor on the mixed 4x400 for the redemption team!

[@MartineCloutier-LeBlanc-pl2pr]

Can y’all comment or made a video about the post press conference with Miss Alfred. Sha’Carri nor Melissa showed up for the interview. This is not the classiest move at so many levels. It is something that should be talked about because it is sure not a good look - actually, it is very disrespectful.

[@lg_ada2695]

I saw it and very classless, what ever positives I was starting to have for Richardson it went out the door. She great once winning but her true character shows in a loss. Crazy thing is she dragged Jefferson into it.

[@greg1288]

Agreed!!

[@MartineCloutier-LeBlanc-pl2pr]

@@lg_ada2695 correct. Melissa was in tears and it would have been fun for the audience to hear about her mindset and emotions. After all, it was the first Olympic experience for all of them. What is to be noticed is when Sha'Carri is not in the lead, she has the "habit" to slow down before the finish line which was seen in the final (after watching the race multiple times. I did not catch it at first). And that tendency shows character. And when you add this no show nor wanting to speak with the media in the media zone after smiling with your American flag on your back (despite a clear disappointment after crossing the line when she is catching her breath or coming to the realization it did not happen like she wanted it to), the character part is more and more visible. In this case, it is decreasing and disappearing. There are lessons to be learned from every moment, hopefully someone can address these "habits" with her. Because this is not the first time at all.

[@nadinerene2760]

It's all saint lucia 🇱🇨 get that right ✅. She did it and all on her own no Jamaican or USA stunt

Julien Alfred won the race by a whopping FIFTEEN HUNDREDTHS of a second, it wasn't even close. Hopefully, she's clean.

Good morning

[@robertvdm7979]

The usa had to put Sydney Mclaughlin in the mixed relay to win. Probably she did not want it, but in Dutch television there was a list of best split times of all times. The first 6 were mostly in the 80's (so doped). Than Sydney Mclauglin in 2022 47.91 and than Bol 47.93 of yesterday. .

At least Lyles showed up for press conference,didn’t see any USA women show,Lyles maybe cocky but he is first to congrats his fellow sprinters❤❤❤

[@gargomelbogle2700]

The Paris organisation fail Shelly Ann frazier Pryce &Sha cari Richardson for not 😅letting them into the warm up area. This is totally disrespect to the Goat 🐐 Mommy Rocket Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce 🚀 &Sha'carri Richardson period 😮😮

[@beyourself2444]

Ok

[@joowsty]

well do you know if maybe its in the rulebook that you cant come in private transportation? if that is a rule that everyone was made aware of then its their own fault to think they dont have to follow the rules cuz of their status in the sport. but if there were no rules about that or not made clear to the national teams then it tis certainly disrespectful.

[@illapuproductions]

@@joowsty they actually changed the rule the night before, apparently not everyone knew.

[@joowsty]

@@illapuproductions hmmm then i wonder why they change these rules one night before, was that cuz the first day a lot of athletes came in private transportation? well for sure they should have anticipated if they didnt want that to happen and have that rule before track and field starts.

[@lexis4490]

What happened to Jamaica?

[@devongetman3135]

Shacarrie was missing a gear. Something was off for her and she didn’t have her normal drive phase and closing speed

[@Timocoh]

Femke on fire..! 👏👏👏

[@ghsense2626]

Twanisha Terry is an overachiever

[@RandyLex-wu6jy]

Wow that’s cool there is such a fine line between confidence and cockiness confidence wins

[@RandyLex-wu6jy]

Good job

[@madinlib]

Sorry man Shelly is much older than Richardson therefore she required more prep time to avoid injuries, therefore it was an issue.

[@sherradgordon]

1 less GOAT. Shelly is the GOAT. No other

[@emotionalintelligence776]

Do not be like them Americans and make excuses for losing. SR lost, with grace I might add dont spit on that and certainly dont diminish the accomplishment of her getting there and representing your crazy country. Athletes have their peak moments and while confidence plays a part it doesnt ever mean you'll win just because. There were no mind games no failed confidence, Julien Álfred simply ran the race of her career and it won her Gold, lets celebrate all these ladies accomplishments and look forward to the newest rivalry.

[@Iamskice]

What was Kalyn browns split??? Because she was flying 💯

[@QuamfyMarc]

I only saw Femke flying. 😂

[@EightFrancs]

I genuinely do not understand athletics media. This is the Olympic Games. The 100m Olympic final is one of the most significant events in world sports. Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce is a worldwide icon and one of the athletics GOATS. And she wasn't able to compete in the Olympics 100m semi-finals because of a pathetic rule change and unreasonable security. And the athletics media response to this is... NOTHING. You don't give a damn. WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH ATHLETICS MEDIA???

[@jessicaT12345]

Shelly got a hamstring injury during warm up. That's why she didn't run.

[@livikalKulcha]

U S tried sooo hard to medal in this event. Kikiki

[@laylasims1969]

USA didn’t have a chance to win gold. So sorry the Jamaican didn’t run. If they did those two USA ladies wouldn’t even placed . They were lucky

[@davidpetrosky]

Silliest take I've seen so far. Richardson beat the Jamaicans at worlds.

[@nerolpeterson884]

She beat Julien last year at Worlds too and this year at Prefontaine. It just says every year is a new year and day is a new day.

[@Jay-yl6nd]

All the athletes except Julien seemed flat in their performance in the women 100M.

[@moegillums9301]

Hello Israilites, keeping it real, we're always being drug tested,have bol,and others been tested like US,why all that slapping for to get something else going look at videos of some runner's doing this a lot.😮😮

Sounds like you're super confident. Why do you just put REAL money on that? 7-figures+ so you can rake in crazy money.

[@bermudaten]

You people are suppose to be the expert, and you dont know why Richardson didn't run well. How about the fact the french officials stop her and Shelley from entering the practice track. Thats why she looked like shit in the semi race and from that point her confidence was in the trash. So she was not going to win the finals. You all sound crazy.

I like this show even though wrestling is my sport these cats have a lot of enthusiasm

There's no jamaican influence ,it's all st Lucian 🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨 DENNERY BIG UP JULIAN ALFERD

[@MANGO_TANGO-84]

Oh, stop it! Jamaica trained her as a teenager, housed her, and schooled her. The same program that produced Bolt, Shelly, Asafa, Shericka, Elaine, Yohan et al molded Alfred. Before we took her in who else did St. Lucia produce on the world stage? Jamaica has been great at springing at the Olympics going back 80 years. Have some appreciation for what we contributed to your athlete.

[@annmariebusu9924]

Jamaica will be claiming Julien with whatever we can think of 😂😂😂. Congratulations to Julien and St. LUCIA 🇱🇨 on their first medal. We always claimed her and she knows that from her past interviews.

[@nataleepkt]

Jamaicans trying to claim it is so sad!lmao if all that training was so great the other Jamaican females should’ve smoked the competition yet none was there. A roof over your head in Jamaica is not gonna let you run faster than a roof over your head anywhere else

[@MANGO_TANGO-84]

@nataleepkt I think you might want to check the history and realize that Jamaica has dominated the women's 100m sprint event for a while, including sweeping it more times than any other nation on earth. Secondly, our 3 best 100m sprinters are all injured. Elaine, Shericka, and Shelly all had to pull out because of injury. Finally, we coached her and educated her. We didn't just provide a roof over her head. We actually took her into the best youth sprint training program on earth and developed her. Your ignorance is deafening.
