- Femke Bol DROPS THE HAMMER On Sydney With INSANE RECORD
Sport is not a beauty contest and athletic excellence is not always easy on the eye. Earlier this month, Dutch sensation Femke Bol was set to compete in a World Athletics Continental Tour Challenger meet before heading to the 2024 Paris Olympics. However, with this upcoming Olympics, we have many of the greatest 400m hurdles runners in the world including Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone, Dalilah Muhammed, and Rushell Clayton.
Moving into the Olympic games, Femke Bol has already run the 400m hurdles three times in 2024, with her season-best time of 52.49 seconds recorded at the European Athletics Championships, where she won the gold medal. But it's quite insane how she found herself in this position.

She looks so humble and beautiful. I want her to win the Olympic golds in her events.
Bol changed her strides pattern, which takes a lot of work, a lot of practice. 400 hurdles takes a lot more planning than a regular race. Planning a certain number of strides in the first sets of hurdles, then switching to one step less towards the end as one gets too fatigued to maintain the same number of strides.
For starters, she had to change her lead leg. At 14 there's no alternating, at 15 you alternate which leg goes over first.
I get your point, but it’s just a little off. 14 steps you are alternating and 15 steps it’s the same leg. Also there’s no need to change your lead leg. You develop the ability to use both legs and for her, after # 6 she using her normal lead leg for the rest of the race.
@@lasvegas4164 the comments about needing time to get used to changing step patterns come from 400 hh athletes, including a recent interview of Femke Bol herself.
Yeah, even steps means same leg over, however Bol isn't doing 14 over every hurdle.
14 steps = alternating lead legs. 13 or 15 steps equals same lead leg. It is okay to lead with the right leg on straightaway but you should lead with the left leg on the curves for shortest distance.
@@garykelder I’m smiling from ear to ear. It’s rare to hear someone who really understands the 400mh. You are 100% correct.
@@garykelder im counting with my fingers and with 14 i start with left finger all the time at 13 or 15 im alternating how do you count the strides?
1L --> 2R --> 3L --> 4R --> 5L --> 6R --> 7L --> 8R --> 9L --> 10R --> 11L --> 12R --> 13L --> 14R --> then coming to --> 1L again? or is the counting after the jump or ?
dont wanna discredit you (just here to learn)
What a time to be watching athletics and anticipating the Olympic Games in Paris.
I can't wait for this women's 400m H final, I fully expect the world record to be broken again and even for 50 seconds to be broken (49.9x).
My reasons for such optimism is that these 2 incredible women will push each other in the final to run faster than they could ever imagine.
Femke Bol will run faster than the current world record by finishing around 50.2 - 50.3, but Sydney McLaughlin Levrone will break the 50 seconds barrier👍🏾
Femke é un'atleta magnifica dotata di eleganza fisica e motoria, forza, resistenza, generosità, umiltà e simpatia in una stessa persona che é un mix raro e attualmente unico. Vorrei tanto che vincesse alle olimpiadi di Parigi nella specialità dei 400 ostacoli, ma dobbiamo essere realisti e non crearci troppe aspettative. Purtroppo l'isolamento americano della primatista mondiale McLaughlin non ci permette di avere un confronto reale e immediato nei meeting europei e quindi siamo abituati a vedere la Bol stravincere tutte le gare senza alcuna rivalità. Ma Sidney che ha una tecnica e una forza agonistica altrettanto formidabili ha dalla sua parte un fisico più leggero e agile che le consente una maggiore velocità, per cui a meno di un imprevedibile cedimento dovrebbe avere la meglio su Femke. Ma si prospetta comunque un duello appassionante e spettacolare tra le due fuoriclasse.
I think that Sydney will win, but Bol will help her to make an stratospheric record!
She may not. The gods only give out so many records to an individual. I think its Bols Time. Levrone has not shown much this year. She broke the record too soon. Mark my words. She will come unstuck in Paris.
Whatever happens. Its gonna be one hell of a showdown in PARIS..
Bol fan club where are you, world record 🤣🤣
Fermke for Gold in Paris. She's unaffected by the pressure & massive audience and expectations. More so than Syd who I think may just be a wee bit overwhelmed. You'll hear me backing Femke all the way.
I think you forgot to take your meds. First, there is no rivalry between these two. One has to beat the other for that to develop. One has never been overwhelmed in her life and holds the world record and all victories head to head. The other is also a great runner but has shown weakness as when Holmes walked her down in the 4x4 and she fell on her face missing all color medals for her teammates. This is the truth. I promise I am not being mean or disrespectful to Bol as she is very special...but these comments are fantasy. Sydney shines in the biggest moments all her life. I have seen her run since grade school in person in NJ.
@@scottellis5324sydney wont forget to take her meds.... as long as she is in med-land us
@scottellis5324 you forgot your meds. Sydney is a part time diva, Femke will destroy her b3cause she takes running seriously
@ghsense2626 In order for Femke to destroy Sidney, she will have to run a lot faster. So, who will have to take things more seriously?
@@ghsense2626A part time diva? She holds the world record you dunce! And not by a little bit either. Geeezzz!!!!
Femke Bol won the 400 meters hurdles at the London meeting on Saturday (London meeting) in 51 sec 30 sea level, 1000m altitude 50:95. We have to come down from the little cloud.
Femke just ran a Diamond meeting record as well as a European record. It's okay for hurdles fans to get excited.... Femke has been breaking (world) records all over Europe the last two seasons. Meanwhile Sydney can only run really fast at Eugene the 'special' bouncy track. Sydney doesn't run that fast anywhere else. Only at Eugene. Bol runs fast every on any track all over the world. I think you need to calm dow a bit from YOUR little cloud buddy. And just get excited like the rest of us and see what the Olympics will bring.
@@hansolo2121
I love the humor of Bol fans. She runs everywhere to beat the SML record, even going to 1000m altitude, but at the London meeting She came back to reality by doing 51.30. She could go to the moon to try to beat the SML record 😁. It seems to me when SML broke its records, Bol was at the back of the bus 🤔
@@EaEnkiSumer Grow up brother. She doesn't run anywhere "to beat McLaughlins record". As Bol has stated very clearly she is working on her own preparation and peaking process to get to peak form in Paris. It is only overstressed, anxious and naive McLaughlin fans like you that are trying to hype this into a battle about times. Bol is absolutely not interested in that (as she has said clearly on several occasions).
@@rientsdijkstra4266
So she runs for fun 🤔 The problem with SML is when she goes out she breaks her record, she has to be banned from leaving the house, it's scary. 🤡
@@EaEnkiSumerwe'll see what Sydney is able to run outside Haywards Field. Up to today only 51.46
First, I don't think McLauglin was at 100% when she did 50.65. Why? Because no one was chasing her. She needs Femke Bol but just to set a world record much higher. When they see each other compete in the 400MH, I'm hoping neither athlete is running for second place.
Just look to this video and ask yourself who was chasing Femke...
In other words , that is not an argument.
I can't wait to see this final, can't wait to see SML give his all to reach 49:80. But even after that we will continue to talk about Bol being better than SML 😁
The same goes for Bol. Nobody has been driving her on since she made the big step to 14 stride in 2023. Since then she WON 32 Races (of wich 15 on the hurdles) in a ROW without any opposition. Just like here in London...
@@rientsdijkstra4266
I propose a petition against SML to prohibit her from leaving her home.
@@EaEnkiSumer Dream on bro. By the way: in june McLaughlin improved from 52.70 to 50.65 in just 4 weeks... that is a rate of improvement of 0.5 seconds per week. If she kept going like that in the 6 week from the end of June to the final of the hurdles on the 8th of august McLaughlin should be able to run a 47.65 at the final in Paris. Now would that not be great? Then maybe she could set New World Records for the 400 hurdles AND the 400 flat (if she goes below 47.60...) in one race! Now that would really be a scoop!
Sydney is in a different class has no worry will break 50 seconds
Dreamer. How much money would you actually bet?
@@jimmybondy9450 as much as i could
as much as i could@@jimmybondy9450
@@jimmybondy9450 WAS I RIGHT?
Sydney an Femke could run in a men’s race.
Sydney Mc Laughlin and Femke Bol wouldn't be often last in a men's final. The male runners in front of them would pull them sub 50,00 seconds. Sydney and Femke of course with female hurdles. Men's hurdles wouldn't be fair because of the smaller body height.
On the other side with special training and focussing both could beat the very old world record of Marita Koch over 400 m flat from 1985 (47,60). Sydney's record is already 48,75 sec. I believe, after 2 years training even sub 47 is possible. An again with a 46 time both wouldn't always be last in a men's final.
Like Femke Bol but she DOES NOT have the world record in the 400m hurdles!!! Sydney McLaughlin has the record which was set at the recent US Olympic Trials in Eugene with a time of 50.65!!!
Femke Bol does have the world record in the 400 m. Sydney and Bol are not so far apart that they couldn't possibly beat each other.
Way too strongly worded a title. Maybe: "Bol Edges a Bit Closer to Sydney". She does not have one single victory against Sydney and until then this is a lopsided competition for Sydney
Do you have a sense of the difference between 51.46 and 52.03(2020)
and 50.65 and 50.95(2024)
That's how much Bol has closed the gap. .3 is not a world away from Bol, That's very close in a 400 meter event.
@@aredditor4272 Come back when those times are once again are head to head.
@@aredditor4272 Ummm, excuse me, time to talk WHEN she can beat Sydney who has spanked her on EVERY occasion. Case closed, Syd holding PLENTY in reserve in case you haven't been watching.
@@ericdawson845 WOW "spanked her" no less. Lady, Bol and McLaughlin have been on the same track only 2x in history (!) ONce in 2021 and once in 2022. And in those days, Bol who started on the hurdles in 2019 still was a newby (Versus McLaughlin who already had 7 and 8 years of experience) And Bol had not even switchted to the 14 step stride than.
But see the progression of the difference in their PB's 2022: 1.59 seconds, 2023: 0.8 seconds, 2024 (untill now) 0.3 seconds... If this continues the question is who is going to "spank" who in the near future?
@@rientsdijkstra4266 Please, how old do you think Syd is? Syd went to Olympics IN HIGH SCHOOL. Stop the cap she has beat down everything that all other hurdlers have done and Bol, as good as she is, has not shown to hold a candle to her. Prob. in good weather Syd is looking at 49.XX. Really best advice is to zip it until you have anything to show, period.
But ita still 30s differece with 1 race no qualifying and in high altitude. Sydney did her WR breakig time with qualifying rounds and she just recently since a year ago. Bol has been running yrar after year non stop. But kudos to het new PB. But the winner of Olympics will break the 49s mark and that will be Sydney again. Sydney 50.65s WR vs Bol 50.95s EUR PB.
I doubt we have seen Femke's best time on the 400mh. She has not shown that all season.
Femke made Sidney come back to the 400mh because Sidney knew she would loose her WR.
Femke is a current 400m wr holder.
So I don't see why you can be so sure about the outcome in Paris.
So far Sidney has only performed properly on the super bouncy US Olympic track in Eugene. But can she has not shown any significant performance outside her comfort zone. (Different tracks or outside the US) And yes, we do know how big the US is.
Nope, not "high altitude". That track in Switzerland is at 994 meter that is officially not even "altitude" (>1000m) and gives at most 0.2 of a second advantage. I think you will be surprised.
@@ptjenl1looks like Sydney answered all your doubts do you have anymore
I’ve never seen so much hoopla, attention, and praise for a second best athlete in my entire life. One would believe it was Bol who broke the world’s record in the 400mh. I have no idea where these folks are from who made this video but I’m going with the American.🇺🇸
Look at the hype for Sha'Carri.
Sha'Carri is nowhere near the past sprint superstars, as they were fantastic at 100 and 200. Richardson didn't even qualify for the 200 this year. She's currently in a three way tie for 5th all time in the 100.
Bol's rise to fame has been steep, her progression has been far faster than Mclaughlin's. Look at the glazing over Mclaughlin's breaking of her own world records, and the relative silence over Bol setting a new record in the indoor 400, and breaking it. It's easy to find comments poopooing Bol's accomplishments for the past several months. It's easy to find "Bol's nowhere near Sydney", or "Sidney is on another planet compared to Bol." So Bol recently narrows the gap to .3 seconds, and here you are doing the usual.
Probably because you are American..? Am I right..?
I must say that I see the same amount of , what you call hoopla, when Sydney goes a few hundreds under her own WR..even less of a marging compared to Bol on de indorr 400m flat (Glasgow).
The ONLY reason we hear more about Bol the last seasons is because Bol was really running and breaking records on different occasions...multiple times.... is because she runs mor competition then Sydney.
If Sydney had run the same amount of races she would be at least getting the same attention.
Sport attention is not for those who are not competing...irrelevant the reason (illness/blessure or whatever)
You would be a great ajax-supporter
She will destroy Sydney at the Olympics. Sydney not on Femke level
Come on, another video to praise Bol. The Bol fan club is out for the umpteenth time 🤣
I'm putting this page aside and will come back after the final.
Have you seen the completely RIDICULOUS amount of adulation by American fanboys and fangirls that McLaughlin gets? That is at least a 1000x worst! Please stop the whining?
@@rientsdijkstra4266
I understand your discomfort with my writings and I sympathize with your pain. 🤡
@@EaEnkiSumer Pain? Brother you are the one who is whining about the attention for Bol. The pain is all yours.
@@rientsdijkstra4266
you're funny don't change anything
The Americans destroyed her
😁
Euhm, "she" destroyed the Americans in the Mixed relay, running them down like school children coming from 20 meter behind... 🤣🤣
The last time they raced Sydney won by almost 30 meters. Yes femke has gotten faster, but so has sydney. And Sydney didn't even expect to break her own world record because she was still working on improving. So if that's the case..........
Bol is surpassing McLaughlin, that's normal because she started hurdling a lot later
She did this in the us where she has her full medical support
Correct, both where faster in 2024 compared to before...
Sydney 0,03 of a second since ger 2022 wr.
Femke 0,5 s since her best in 2023.
Progression of the difference in their PB's 2022: 1.59 seconds, 2023: 0.8 seconds, 2024 (untill now) 0.3 seconds
I don't see Sydney improve. She peaked. Unless she gets some good medical support.
Haters? New fake?
the DUTCH has only TOPPERS , LOOK AT VERSTAPPEN !!
Drops the hammer? You really think that being 20 yds behind instead of 25 is "dropping the hammer"?
When will you realize she will never beat Sydney. She will probably not even beat Mohammed!
🤣🤣🤣PB McLaughlin: 50.65. PB Bol: 50.95 (0.3 difference) PB Muhammad: 51.58 (1.63 slower than Bol)🤡
Professional 🤡
Even funnier: Mohammad did not even qualify for the Olympics.
Bol - Muhammad on track: 5-2 for Bol and 5-0 since 2021
Sydney 50.65, Femke 50.95 its still far behind !
What a joke statement. Bol will be beaten in the 400 hurdles. SM-L will beat her. Bol may very well never break 51seconds again.
Keep dreamin bro.
She did not drop anything she is still trailing Sydney in time wise there is 3 tenth of a second difference between them. In the Olympic she will be rating Sydney's dust because Sydney is going to run the 400MH under 50 seconds. Eat your heart bol.
Sydney need a god, femke does not need a god to win the race
@@MrHenkfromHolland Why don't you understand that Femke is still trailing Sydney in time she is 3 tenths of a second slower than Sydney and Sydney is going to add another half to 1 second in the Olympic..
OMG American
Everyone who expects a sub50 is clueless.
Nobody cares 400 mm that's only for who can't win
100 and 200 mm
mm??? Do we hold races over millimeters nowadays?
@@rientsdijkstra4266Americans have some serious problems with numbers, nothing new. 😅
Bol is good, but the difference is that Sydney wasn’t even trying when she set her last two world records!!!
