Olympic Diary : Day 10


Low Key Monday , The Queen dethroned

A relatively low key day at the games after the tumultuous weekend. The Queen of the Pole Vault , Yelena Isenbayeva , abdicated her throne with American Jessica Suhr taking gold. The 2 time defending champion could only garner a disappointing silver medal.
Felix Sanchez, the 2004 , Dominican Republic sprinter , completed an astonishing win the mens 400m hurdles, to add to his gold at Athens in 2004. The big guns in the women’s 200m all calmly positioned themselves for yet another exciting finish, while Belarus and Russia won golds in the women’s shot put and steeplechase respectively. Kirani James earned Grenada its first Olympic gold in the 400m.
