☆ Julien Alfred stuns Sha’Carri Richardson, takes crown as world’s fastest woman with 100m win

Only a gold medal seemed worthy of her ability. Richardson’s time of 10.87 was good enough to win a silver, her first Olympic medal. Julien Alfred just won the FIRST Olympic medal EVER for Saint Lucia! Richardson missed out on delivering the United States’ first gold medal in the women’s 100 meters since Gail Devers in 1996. She could still win a gold medal in the 4×100 relay on Aug. 9.

☆ Doctors dismissed my health concerns and said I was training too hard. No one knew I was competing in the Olympics without being able to see the hurdles.

AdvertisementDoctors told me I was training too hardWhen I got home, I started seeing doctor after doctor. In the next Olympics, in 1996, I won gold again in the 100-meter sprint and a third gold medal in the 100-meter relay. Then, only two years ago, I was diagnosed with thyroid eye disease. I call my eye disease Ted, pronounced like the name. I want others to know about thyroid eye disease.

☆ Athletics takes Pan Am spotlight but 100 metres left in shadows

While there has been a lack of quality and depth across many of the sports in Santiago, it was never more glaring than at the first day of athletics. The Pan American region has for decades produced some of the world's greatest sprinters, including Usain Bolt. Brazil's Izabela Rodrigues claimed the first gold of the athletics competition winning the women's discus while the women's long jump title went to Colombia's Natalia Linares. Chile's Lucas Nervi delighted a small but supportive opening day home crowd, taking top spot on the podium in the men's discus. "I feel happy, for the medal for my country, which is the most important thing, along with qualification," said Mesinas.
