@@molonlabe9602 She will be doing amazing in the 400. She didn’t even look like she was full on trying to make the team. && on top of that she would’ve had to pick between the 400 & 200 because of conflicting times, so it worked out either way
Damm we can only imagine.. had Allyson not been injured Trust Me she would have doubled gold 200m and 400m. 2012 and 2016 was her years. Lets pray she makes 2020.
I am a big fan of Allyson. This USATF 200m final result news in the morning IST made my entire day so bad that my thought was stopped as I am not going to see her in 200m Rio. 400m Gold was sure shot for her if she would have not been injured but 200 was kind of 50-50 since Elaine 21.78 was commendable. But one thing could be predicted well that Dafne would have got Bronze in this imaginary situation. I feel Allyson was never been lucky as being beaten by Veronica twice in Olympics, then injured and fell down on track 2013 Moscow and gave Shally-Ann an easy pass for Gold, 2016 Injured right before Olympic when her 60m timing was pretty good as 7.15 sec. Hoping to see her double Gold in 2021.
She already know it was going to be a tuff run but she is a competitor. I am her fan for life and she will come back the next olympic and beat everyone.
She was injured significantly prior to olympics, and couldn't even put weight on her ankle. It was terrific rehab and her strength and will that brought her back to this level.
She wasn't third. The only part of the body that counts when crossing the line is the torso. Whoever gets their chest across first, wins. Doesn't matter if someone else has their hand, leg, head, neck, arm, shoulder across the line. If that chest doesn't make it to the line before the other person, none of that matters, which is why you see athletes deliberately do a nosedive for the line when they're losing. Between the momentum from running and acceleration when falling, usually gets their chest across the line faster than the person who runs for it. Like what happened here.
Prandini collapsed. She gave it everything she had, literally. You can see it in the slow motion replay where her leg just gives out on her. She had no more strength at all.
My girl gave it her all and I enjoy that she fought to the very end. Let's focus on getting that 400m. I think if she get some speed work in she can get it one of those records. She is a true champ, she fought to the end.
Allyson showed great heart, and she's just a class act! I know everyone wanted to see her run the 200m. but I actually enjoy watching her more in the 400m. To me it just shows how skillful and powerful of a runner she is. If she's healthy, she'll be in at least one relay. She will still be very busy in Rio! If we think about it, she's one of the few veteran Olympians who are returning to the games. No Sanya, Dee-Dee Trotter, Francena McCrory, Dawn Harper, and Carmelita Jeter wasn't even at the meet. Unfortunately it's a changing of the guard with a lot the newer runners coming up!
It's a changing off the guards around the world. VCB didn't make the 100m team either. These veterans are run out by the new comers who won't make the finals at the Olympics. Sad!
+Kye- Paveman ...Yes the changing of the guard is inevitable, and we will have to embrace the newcomers and endure the growing pains they will go through. The London Games was really a great Olympics, in which I loved every minute of watching. It will definitely be different in Rio, but I just look forward to everyone competing at their best. With VCB since she's mainly been a 200m specialist the fact that she came in 4th in the 100m was still powerful. She's in her 30s and still putting it down. At least she'll be in the 200m and I'm sure the 4 x 100m relay. When I think of her she's like the energizer bunny. She may not always win, but she's always in the mix....she keeps going, and going, and going!
I think people forget that VCB is a 200m specialist who just happens to be really good at the 100m. She didn't make the 100m team in Beijing either but the newcomers who beat her in the trials did a clean sweep in the Olympic final, she then went on to get her gold medal in the 200. IMO that worked out perfectly. She then made the 100m team in 2012 and got her bronze against a really tough lineup. I almost feel as if VCB uses her losses as motivation for the future. I'm never too worried when she has an off year. She's a tremendous athlete and she knows how to rebound from misfortune.
OMG THAT WAS MY REACTION TOO HAHA..But seriously still shocked!! All the best to Allyson in the 400m and 4x4, and hoping she gets speed work done to run in the 4x1
Some may call it a changing of the guard. I think that would be a premature assessment. By her own admission, lack of speed work any the ankle injury played into her performance. She'll have another try for a medal next year at the WC in London. Focus on 400 this year then come back next year and do 200m.
I wasn't just referring to Allyson in this regard, but was referencing the changing of the guard overall when it comes to who will be representing the US in Rio and beyond. I think if you look at the team going to Rio, the newcomers far outweigh the veterans. I don't think that's premature, I think that's reality!
You won't find a bigger Felix fan than me. But I give the nod to Irina Prevalova of Russia (name spelling may be off a bit.) She was world class from 50m all the way up to 400. She's best known as a 100m and 200m sprinter, but unfortunately for her, she ran against likes of Ottey, Deavers, Ashford, Torrance, and Áaron. Like Felix, she was a mainstay on both the 4x1 and 4x4 relay teams. She finally got her individual gold medal in Sydney, running the 400m hurdles.
I hope I am wrong, but, I have absolutely NO CONFIDENCE whatsoever in these Oregon girls in Rio. They seem to do well in the Olympic & outdoor trials, but, they are horrific in the Olympics and World Championships. I have a big feeling that they (all three of them) will find a way to screw things up.
Why isn't anyone criticising the US selection system ? Any other country in the world would recognise that a great athlete was gradually getting back to her best and give her a place in the team. Good luck to Jenna Prandini, but we saw what happened to her last year. 22.20 at the US Trials, then 22.87 when it mattered at the World Championships.
Allyson, decimate the 400 meter world record in Rio, then come back for the WC's next year and go for the 200 meter record. I think Allyson has a good shot to win the 200 in 2020.
She will be 34 in 2020. I doubt she'll want to push her ageing body as an elite athlete for 4 more years. We have a 22 year old Bahamian already running 49.6 and 49.5 in Shaunae Miller. Felix can probably handle her this year, and maybe even next. But the general trend is that Shaunae will get stronger and Felix will not. That being said, Felix has zero more to prove. Imho...she is the GOAT.
Allyson Felix is such a class act. She will be remembered so after her glorious career comes to an end. She congratulates Prandini and later Miller Uibo after their classless acts to dive for the finish line. Allyson too classy to do that. Foot race starts on the feet should end that way.
@@trackandfieldarchive --You're right, it is legal, though it should'nt be. I suppose you're ok if this becomes widespread and change the Dynamics of the sport. Gladly Prandini hasn"t had any success since. Miller Uibo, a little more successful than Prandini but not much. I'm happy about that.
@@koolhandduke4087 why are you hating on Prandini and Miller-Uibo? Just because they beat Allyson? That's rather spiteful. Are they supposed to apologise for beating her? Prandini had a great 2018 season and while she'll never be the best, she's still world-class. And Miller-Uibo has had more than just a little success. She ran 48.37 and was only beaten by Naser's 48.14. All power to them.
@@trackandfieldarchive --You can call it hating if you like. Truth is, I have little respect for the way they got their victory. That's as pleasant as I can put it for them. Let me hear your feelings on diving for the finish line becoming widespread.
@@koolhandduke4087 It's not like this is the first time it's happened. David Neville did it to beat Chris Brown in 2008 for a bronze medal and nobody said anything. Jeff Porter made the US team in 2012 with a similar dive too. Seems people only cared when it was Allyson being beaten which is a bit of a double standard.
Allyson yes so sad that she couldn t have taken the first place ,against Bowie and Stevens... guess she wasn t in topshape... but she s 'my hero still and ever..Allyson Felix forever !!!...
I really wanted to see Alyson at here best. She is indeed hurt and you can see it. I hope she can compete in Rio during the 400m.So sad. These other girls have to step up big time.
Um, she has an ankle injury buddy, which means she hasn't trained for the 200m and still could have made the team. Given time to heal and train for the Olympics, she would have been in contention for a metal in Rio.
I am a huge Allyson Felix fan, but look at the 200 m final in Rio, not long after the event here. Hindsight is 20/20, but the comment at the end of the video is right on. Felix did best by focusing on the 400 m. She may not have even medaled in the 200 m.

Allyson lost the 400m gold at Olympics the exact same way, she lost out on a position on the team here. and they say lightning doesnt strike twice....wow!
Pure Determination And The Strength Of Zeal Was The Serum For Allyson Felix To Comeback After Being Injured. (Ankle) l Give Her **Superb Credit** For Coming Back Under These Circumstances!!!!! **We Love You** **Allyson Felix** **Top Notch**
My boo didn't win. I hope one of the other chicas bring is 200m Gold. If not, sorry, bad decision. We have no reason not to best Gold in 200m Women in the Olympics, since Howie is suppose to be faster & the other lady. We will see!
I like Prandini, but didn't like the way she disrespected Allyson after the race and in post race interviews. And Ato Bolden, saying Prandini is a good finisher??? That's her most glaring weakness. She's always getn run down.
No one never mentions how the girl in this race and the Jamaican in a different 400 race were neck and neck with Felix and to beat Allyson they flung themselves across the finish line. Lol. To me that shouldn't count if u cant run thru the type. Your week to me......uf u cant run thru the line.
I think it should not be legal to fall into the finish line. It is really distracting for the other competitors nearby. Especially in this case when Prandini props up at Felix.
My oh my the 400 will be fascinating with a huge motivated Alison Felix against miller and for the 200 mtr sorry to say but two of the qualified ladies won t do any shit in Rio and Bowie could medal as long as she doesn t choke what she normally do on mayor events!!!! Anyway dafne Schippers will bring back the gold in at least in the 200 in Rio and who knows what more yesss yeah
3:42 LoLLLLLLLL I didn't expect to hear a TH-cam commentary... :-D Well, Allyson will still be on the 4x200 meter relay and she won 400 meters (Which I think was her focus in these last few years from I read)
In rio she still wasn't in best shape but idk if she would have beaten Thompson. And she should have gone considering she is the reigning Olympic 200m champ from 2012
looking a this video I actually see Prandini making contact with Felix before the finish which is a IAAF violation, Felix should've been third, check time 5:46, this same rule disqualified Brazilian relay team
@ricot2. The foot doesn't count. The knee, hand and head don't count either. The runner is timed by the point at which the torso crosses the line. The torso is the ONLY body part used to determined who crosses the line ahead of someone else. Felix wasn't robbed. The other athlete dived in order to make sure her torso crossed before Felix. And it worked.
Allyson still made history in RIo :)
You scared the shit out of me! LOL
Jamie2Starr Same. 😂😂
seeing gabby run now; wow she's improved so much
2012 go 2020 yep
i hate races that allyson loses, they literally break my heart. im like, "but she's such a good person, why do bad things happen to good people." lol.
She has won in a lot of races at least-
all good things come to an end my friend..
There are no good people, only a good God. Allyson would tell you the same thing. I hate to see her lose also.
Losing a race isn't a bad thing. She just lost in the 200 again this year. I hope she does well in the 400 in Tokyo.
@@molonlabe9602

Did shaunae miller take a note from jenna prendini? Lmfao
Monique Gibson no one said she didn’t beat her.. she just asked if she got her diving methods from Jenna lol why are you in your feelings?
I had the exact same thought when I just watched this. What are the odds of that happening twice to the same runner in one year?
Rip Tori Bowie champ🙏
She already know it was going to be a tuff run but she is a competitor. I am her fan for life and she will come back the next olympic and beat everyone.
No more Olympics bih

funny how this portend what was to happen in Rio. # the dive
Allyson is a legend
Allyson felix shoulda taken this as a sign from God and learnt how to dive, happened to her again at the olympics😂
Provost Coleman karma is a bitch 🙈😏
She is already a hero, and gorgeous!
Allyson is a legend she won't be forgotten (jamaican fan)
00:45 wow Tori was so beautiful!! Rip queen 😢❤
I'm really not seeing how Allyson Felix wasn't awarded this. a larger percentage of her body crossed the finish line during this tie.
And she is a better runner than Prandini
the judge it by whoever torso crosses first since prandini fell she is the winner
I was thinking the same thing bro..... kept reviewing it , she was third

Sore loser.
these chicks always falling across the line against Felix fing sad yo need to change the rules reminds me off the nba flop.
Calvin Brown I agree 100%
That girl tripped right before the line
Prandini collapsed. She gave it everything she had, literally. You can see it in the slow motion replay where her leg just gives out on her. She had no more strength at all.
I don't understand this falling across the finish line stuff? Should be an automatic DQ, IMO.
Nah can u judge intent? Also if she miss timed it it would have been a fail.
My girl gave it her all and I enjoy that she fought to the very end. Let's focus on getting that 400m. I think if she get some speed work in she can get it one of those records. She is a true champ, she fought to the end.
and Prandini didn't make the finals at the Olympics...damn

I think we are on the same page here Kye. I was asking Maurice that question so he could tell me his answer.
Exactly
I don't think she will get destroyed in the 400m, she is too talented and patient runner, but it time to start investing in younger runners like Bowi.
She is getting old thus the lost of speed and injury. Yes, focus on the 400m.
allyson felix and wade van niece are the greatest all around sprinters in history
JeyRelentless Was, Now Tori moved into the Limelight with Miller & Tau Lu. Once severely injured it's hard to come back to top form.
You won't find a bigger Felix fan than me. But I give the nod to Irina Prevalova of Russia (name spelling may be off a bit.) She was world class from 50m all the way up to 400. She's best known as a 100m and 200m sprinter, but unfortunately for her, she ran against likes of Ottey, Deavers, Ashford, Torrance, and Áaron.

Two races that by falling her opponet has beaten Felix,( this race and final in Rio),that shouldn't have to be accepted when doing on purpose!
i thought this was a race not who can dive at the line the best, miller uibo basically jumped to the line to deny allyson her gold in 400m
"come on Allyson, Come Allyson, COME ALLYSON! ..... NOOOOOOOO ha ha."
hilarious
I cheer allyson felix forever.

She originally planned to retire after 2016, but decided to keep going. I can't help but feel that this is her last Olympic team.
I hope not. I think she has enough to take gold in 2020 if she stays injury free.
She will be 34 in 2020. I doubt she'll want to push her ageing body as an elite athlete for 4 more years. We have a 22 year old Bahamian already running 49.6 and 49.5 in Shaunae Miller.

Allyson Felix has long been my hero. Toughness and grace.
A Felix my favorite..to be fair she's getting older and been winning for a long time...
I really wanted to see Alyson at here best. She is indeed hurt and you can see it. I hope she can compete in Rio during the 400m.So sad. These other girls have to step up big time.
Shes not hurt she just heavily lacked speed work training this season because her focus was all on the 400m
Okay.... I hope she's at her best in Rio. I really felt for her.

that spot.. photo finish. she won
Slow the film down and Alysons foot crosses the line first . Check it out .
the torso, not the feet that has to cross first.
too bad. her 400 was great though
allyson shes my gurl shes my inspiration shes very humble i love her so much
these times are all slow anyway

What do you think of my ranking? Any notable sprinters you think I forgot to mention? Any sprinter that shouldn't be on the list?
The list is purely based on accomplishment and results. It doesn't take into account what you did outside the sport
_devilman crybaby run looks different here._
alyson was 3rd aki
Allyson lost the 400m gold at Olympics the exact same way, she lost out on a position on the team here. and they say lightning doesnt strike twice....wow!
Allison Felix, como siempre una grande corriendo, su fuerte es los 400 mts, espero que esté en las Olimpiadas de Tokio y cobre su revancha.
Pure Determination And The Strength Of Zeal Was The Serum For Allyson Felix To Comeback After Being Injured.
(Ankle) l Give Her **Superb Credit** For Coming Back Under These Circumstances!!!!! **We Love You** **Allyson Felix** **Top Notch**
Either Asia or China, get yourself together! You out here losing your composure.
stfu

My boo didn't win. I hope one of the other chicas bring is 200m Gold. If not, sorry, bad decision. We have no reason not to best Gold in 200m Women in the Olympics, since Howie is suppose to be faster & the other lady. We will see!
I like Prandini, but didn't like the way she disrespected Allyson after the race and in post race interviews. And Ato Bolden, saying Prandini is a good finisher??? That's her most glaring weakness. She's always getn run down.
Allyson always beaten by people who finish their race by diving.. is it cursed?
No one never mentions how the girl in this race and the Jamaican in a different 400 race were neck and neck with Felix and to beat Allyson they flung themselves across the finish line. Lol. To me that shouldn't count if u cant run thru the type. Your week to me......uf u cant run thru the line.
MY TEACHER IS ALYSON FELIX GODMOTHER ☺☺like if u agree
Even at her age, she's still holding her own against these new fresh runners
Alison Felix is my favourate.. what ever happens she's my star
I think it should not be legal to fall into the finish line. It is really distracting for the other competitors nearby. Especially in this case when Prandini props up at Felix.
My oh my the 400 will be fascinating with a huge motivated Alison Felix against miller and for the 200 mtr sorry to say but two of the qualified ladies won t do any shit in Rio and Bowie could medal as long as she doesn t choke what she normally do on mayor events!!!! Anyway dafne Schippers will bring back the gold in at least in the 200 in Rio and who knows what more yesss yeah
3:42 - come on allyson, Come Allyson, COME ALLYSON . . . . . NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO . . HA HA
3:57 - fuck
I was there as a volunteer reteiver for the shotput now new hayward opens soon
I actually enjoyed the laugh in the end more than this race lol
prandini did crap at the olympics anyways.
She didn't do s*** with that opportunity she wasted it. Allison should have went
Can they please change this diving bullshit. It should be when the hips cross, not the damn shoulders
Dafne gonna kick all they asses lmfao
Those are some beautiful ladies. Hubbah Hubbah, into the covers. 😜
None of these USA girls will win without Felix. Elaine is gonna toast y'all
she is a really fast runner
The need to made a rule you has yo rum to the tape not throwing yourself to the tape the need to pass it for every one
I just love track, they have the best athletes and so sexy and pretty
3:42 LoLLLLLLLL I didn't expect to hear a TH-cam commentary... :-D
Well, Allyson will still be on the 4x200 meter relay and she won 400 meters (Which I think was her focus in these last few years from I read)
omg when she started screaming "go " i bout peed myself
The US could have gotten gold in the 200m via Felix if it wasn't for their stupid rules. She should have gotten a pass like Bolt got in Jamaica.
Markanthony Cromwell
YEP
Markanthony Cromwell she couldn't beat Thompson
Markanthony Cromwell youre an idiot
In rio she still wasn't in best shape but idk if she would have beaten Thompson. And she should have gone considering she is the reigning Olympic 200m champ from 2012
Boooooooooo give it a better name. I did not want to see her lose. Make it private!
This guy have the worst commentating voice in sports
looking a this video I actually see Prandini making contact with Felix before the finish which is a IAAF violation, Felix should've been third, check time 5:46, this same rule disqualified Brazilian relay team
elijah allen Ye , change the result when you are ready.
❤
Where are these girls now except Bowie? Prandini nowhere...The others nobody even knows. That was by accident...
Allyson at best use to be a sub 80, 70 time at 21 sec..if healthy, woulda dusted the competition easily at this time injury free but oh well
I'm SO frickin disappointed. I LOVE Allyson Felix! I'd marry her tomorrow if I could!
pause the video at 4:55. Alyson's foot clearly crossed before the white girls hand. she got robbed
track and field finishes are based off the position of the torso .. not any other body part. she was fairly placed.
+Taryn Dixon ok. thank you for that info
+Taryn Dixon I agree with that so look at it again Felix torso crossed first.
+Taryn Dixon I agree with that so look at it again Felix torso crossed first.
@ricot2. The foot doesn't count. The knee, hand and head don't count either. The runner is timed by the point at which the torso crosses the line. The torso is the ONLY body part used to determined who crosses the line ahead of someone else. Felix wasn't robbed. The other athlete dived in order to make sure her torso crossed before Felix. And it worked.
they are aaaaalllll..... champion s!
Gabrielle Thomas you are so Beautyful 💞
Y'all CHECK OUT MY CHANNEL!!
They should have put the white girl on the diving team
Bo Rood - So your momma is a beast I thought so
Was Allyson recovering from an injury? She was so slow out of the blocks.
Yes severe ankle injury months before the trials
Lol I'm sorry but did anyone peep how she fell into third place. But hey she's going to Rio
hk
Oh no....another diver? WTH?
I hope everyone criticizing Shaunae Miller will see this and keep silent.
Felix got 3rd I’m not blind
