Olympic champion Sydney McLaughlin wrote another astonishing chapter in her track and field career on Friday, obliterating her own world record as she powered to a jaw-dropping victory in the women’s 400m hurdles at the World Championships in Oregon.
The American prodigy left rivals trailing in her wake at Hayward Field as she took gold in a stunning time of 50.68sec—the first time any woman has ducked under the 51-second barrier. McLaughlin’s incredible performance sliced more than half a second of her own world record of 51.41sec, set at the same venue during the US trials last month.
