              Rockie, this was a really interesting 4x100-meter relay in that Jamaica LED ON EVERY LEG! In fact, the IAAF TV’s commentator Peter Matthews made a statement at least twice that Natasha Morrison outran Allyson Felix on the second leg! His co-commentator Steve Ovett agreed.

              So, VCB handed over to Natasha Morrison in first place;
              Natasha Morrison handed to Elaine Thompson in first place;
              Elaine Thompson handed to Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce in first place!

              I will go as far as to say that we didn’t even need Shelly-Ann on anchor, except that she increased the distance to enable us to shatter the world championships record in the second fastest time ever ran by a woman’s relay team anywhere in history!

              (End note: In shattering that world championships record, Jamaica was in fact breaking its OWN record, set in Moscow in 2013 with a completely different team (except for Shelly-Ann on anchor)!! Lmao)

                When she gets stronger she may well be a threat to that impossible 21.4+ by Flo-Jo. That would be something!!!!

                      Did VCB hand over first?
                      If the baton changes were all good we would have had a shot at the WR. Shelly-Ann's receipt was the pits. She actually made sure by 'turning around' on the take!!! So her decision was GOLD for sure...WR fi lata!!!
