World Athletics C'ships: McLaughlin-Levrone Breaks 42-year Championship Record
World Athletics Championships: Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone of the United States highlighted the day by smashing the longest-standing event record at the World Athletics Championships here on Thursday, while the women's triple jump final saw Hernandez dethrone four-time world champion and Olympic titleholder Yulimar Rojas of Venezuela.
McLaughlin-Levrone, the two-time Olympic 400m hurdles champion, stormed to victory in the women's 400m final in 47.78 seconds, trimming 0.21s off the previous record of 47.99s set by Jarmila Kratochvilova of Czechoslovakia at the inaugural World Championships in 1983.
"I knew there were a lot of people doubting me with making the switch from 400 meters hurdles to the flat 400m, but ultimately, I had faith in my training," said the 26-year-old. "We will need to talk about the schedule for the Los Angeles 2028 Olympic Games. Maybe I could do both 400m and 400m hurdles."
