This gorgeous U.S. athlete, was the favorite to win it all….and doing it. Finished 7th.
Lolo Jones was cruising to a gold medal, when her heel pushed the ninth hurdle over. Pushing the hurdle with the bottom of her cleat, instead of the regular “clipping” with the toe, forced Jones to slip awkwardly. She was passed by almost everyone.
This was pretty dang tough to watch. In her interview, she handled it perfectly. Privately, she bawled her eyes out.
