There's lots of photos of Mboma with fans today on the "The Namibian" facebook page. She is tiny and slight. Exciting to watch her run.

I found it rather interesting that the World Athletics report on the meet gave Mboma just 3 lines of text. As Sha'Carri would say "show me (her) some respect".
We just witnessed something crazy-special last night, she blew the WJR out of the water, but WA would rather focus on other events. I get her name isn't big - yet - but give her some credit.

IAAF lists Mboma as the 7th fastest woman in history.
But for some reason they still list Grit Breuer as the holder of the women's Junior 400m record yet both Mboma and Masilingi have broken that record. Mboma broke the record nearly 2 months ago but IAAF has not ratified it. Incompetence all around.

Originally posted by Wiederganger View Postboth Mboma and Masiligi have been withdrawn from the 400m on the Road to Tokyo rankings. They are qualified and still appear in the 200m though.
Make of that what you will.
