She had the audacity to beat a Russian boxer, next day she was DQ'd. Super shady.
Let's be real here, Algeria is not going to send a trans athlete. The way she has been treated is disgusting and hurtful, people suck.
Femke's split time was 47.93, for comparison the 400m flat WR from the 1980's is 47.60. I know she had a flying start but that time is amazing.
The two men on the team are the first men ever to win gold for the Netherlands in Athletics.
I knew we were going to medal when Femke got the baton as close to the front as she did, I was screaming when she caught the British runner and then the US runner. She likes to chase, she did the same in the womens 4x400m at the last world championships. Lieke Klaver completely freaking out at the finish line was awesome to watch.
