No disrespect to her but those announcers were being dramatic… 😂 I’m sure she’s clipped hurdles in the past.. She finished with great stride and just misjudged the hurdle. Those 2 coming off the 2nd turn are the toughest
I suspect she's injured, 😞
55.5 after "almost disaster". Another level.
well she made it look easy
She is exactly what this sport needs. Athletic, smart and beautiful. The sky is the limit for her.
Amazing! She was far from perfect and still blew out the rest of the NCAA! She is going to be extemely wealthy and rich one day based on her talent & beauty for endorsements. God speed.
So scary, oh my!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😱😱😱😱😱😱😨😨😨😨😨😨😨😓😓😓😓😓😓😓😓😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰🎅🏿
I dont like how these guys be talking about if Sydney is okay or not but there was an athlete that wasn’t able to walk on her own after race. Not hating on Sydney or anything just saying everyone should be treated equally even if you’re good or not so good.
If she had gone hard it wouldn't happen she toke it easy and that change up her stride length she is great good luck
i met her and that was the greatest moment of my life
She is fucking garbage
Really .. The fuck outta here that wasnt no "near disaster" …she clipped a hurdle big fuckin deal … Its hurdles that shit happens ..ALL the time …headline made it seem like she almost broke a leg or some shit …swear ppl live worshipping humans ….
I'm sure she's enjoying her college experience but incidents like this would have me (if I was in her situation) SERIOUSLY thinking about turning pro. She's at pro level right now as an 18 yr. old with a long track career and potentially millions of dollars in prize money and endorsements at stake. Why risk injury running for free for an institution that reaps all the benefits for your labor????? Hope she's injury free because she dodged a bullet here SMDH.
Woman's hurdles look like fun.
All of you saying the announcers were being “dramatic” are wrong. It’s not because she clipped the hurdle that they were freaking out, it was because of the way she landed. That could have been a very scary knee injury.
The amazing part was that she was still so far ahead that the stumble didn't even matter
I think it was just a bad race for her all together
Testament to flexibility and injury prevention, body has to be resilient.
Lmao. Are you trolling, Flo? Get outa here. She looks perfectly fine if you ask me. I've done this a plenty of times back in the day.
You know you're special when Flotrack uses you as clickbait. hahahaha
waaaaayyy over dramatic
All hurdlers hit hurdles from time to time. Her clip of the hurdle was mild compared to others I've seen.
Looks like she’s trying to left-lead too much, which is not her natural lead leg. I always ran faster leading with my natural leg and adjusting strides vs trying to switch lead legs. Keep it simple and stick with one leg, unless you are very good at leading with both legs.
lol cmon guys. She tripped a little. She didn’t get a nuke aimed at her knee…
Scroll down for a rant on my parents…
So I'm 15 years old and my brothers are 10, 11, and 13. I have to share a room with the ones that are 11 and 13 years old. The 10-year old has a larger bedroom than ours (with 3 people!). Why does he get his own room and I'm the oldest? Uhh?
Stumble and still blow out the competition….
You put 400h
Nice stamina ! It takes a lot for people to do hurdles. But the announcers are like “OH OH MY GOD” like shut up it’s not that serious broski
You wonder why women's sports aren't taken seriously? Those hurdles look like the size of a high school girls 100h. These are professional grade athletes, come on.
She clipped it. Not full on collapsing over it😂 Too dramatic.
it’s always so scary when you hit the hurdle with your lead leg 😧
She has no competition 😂
They were so over dramatic
Leoooooo gangggggg🤪
Wow! Even I screamed while watching, thinking she was going to fall and ruin her race.
Talent saved her
55.50 and wearing number 5. Biblically the number 5 is the number of Grace. 💕
Here after she placed 1st in the wc with 50. Something. She has improved so much her form her speed. Amazing
she is just a different monster yet the same beast
Era una niña muy precoz
