Sydney MCLAUGHLIN-LEVRONE
Биография
Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone's exceptional talents are undoubtedly inherited from her family's athletic background. Her father, Willie, made the 400m semi-finals at the 1984 U.S. Olympic trials. Her mother was a middle-distance brother with older brother Tyler winning 400m hurdles silver at the 2016 IAAF World U20 Championships. However, Sydney has surpassed them all.
Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone's Journey to Tokyo Gold
From the start, it was clear that McLaughlin was on a journey to make history. At 16 and while still at high school, she finished third in the 2016 U.S. Olympic Trials in a new world junior 400m hurdles record of 54.15. That saw her become the youngest American track and field athlete to qualify for the Olympic Games since the boycotted Moscow 1980 Games. McLaughlin made the semi-finals at Rio 2016, but her potential was obvious.
After one year at the University of Kentucky, McLaughlin turned professional in June 2018. Just over a year later, she took silver behind Olympic champion Dalilah Muhammad at the Doha World Championships.
