Reset the start list for this final event of athletes London in 2026 the women's 200 meters
of a creep at a lake a middle wave oh white thomas and battle good setup for gabby thomas
gets that sixth lane battle to chase white to press it's going to be a good race it's
going to be perfect like you said with gabby in lane six with her chief competition right
in front of her that's going to set her up well we know the strength of her race is the
final part she's not the best starter but boy does she finish well must say we are also missing
britney brown this year she's had such a great experience in her days at atlas back-to-back wins
last year at 100 and 200 meters she has the athletes meeting record 2189 i would say
this is a group capable of attacking that especially when gabby thomas is the sixth
fastest woman in history i also think these ladies are going to run fast i mean i came
into the evening thinking it was going to be tough to see fast time but we have been seeing
1080 we saw 48.7 in the 400 and so one of these women are multiple could dip under 22 seconds
which would be a phenomenal way for them to end their season five olympic titles between
gabby thomas and shanae miller webo but tonight it is all about the crown one of the first times
in a long time this stadium has gotten quiet music is off the hush is here waiting for this
200 meter final to wrap us up in london she's on the inside of g looks phenomenal paul nice
run on the inside but now gabby thomas is away and stretching the lead here into the final few
meters battle trying to close get second but gabby thomas is your athlos champion in the women's 200
meters and it makes it a complete sweep sonja every stadium record in which there was an event
has been reset and that's really going to be a great legacy to athlos as the next generation
of athletes will come to this stadium and see what what what they witnessed here in 2026 yeah
that's the way you put your stamp on the stadium watch it back and i mentioned to you gabby doesn't
always have the best start but boy did she get off well here tonight it seemed like she was on
a mission when she was here last she finished second in the 200 and i felt like she wanted
to change that memory of the final race of the athlos meet and she really ran that from
tape to gun from gun to tape really really well just outside of 21 seconds 22 one still a very
respectable time in these conditions this late in the season 22 13 for gabby and that was kayla white
and maybe a battle they're battling for second and third battle will finish third and white
second and 22 40 yeah i thought battle had the momentum there the last minute on the outside
lane but the determination on the face of gabby thomas as she realizes the victory
