Jamaica's Elaine Thompson-Herah has made history! She won gold in the women's 100 meters, setting a new Olympic record finishing in 10.61 seconds. Thompson-Herah didn’t think she would be able to defend her Olympic title. She had dealt with a nagging Achilles injury all the way through the Jamaican Olympic trials. Thompson-Herah's new personal-record time set an Olympic record, surpassing Florence Griffith-Joyner's time of 10.62 set in 1988. Griffith-Joyner still holds the world record of 10.49, which she also set that year. Griffith-Joyner is the only woman in history to run 100 meters faster than Thompson-Herah. #tokyoolympics #tokyospirit
