I knew what had transpired -- my wife does not and we're about to start the primetime coverage -- so I can't imagine how that's going to play by spoiling everything for people or did he not reveal the results and say he is racing with COVID?

Sydney McLaughlin-Leverone is going to do to the women's 400-meter hurdles what Edwin Moses did on the men's side 40 years ago. That was Usain Bolt-dominating-the-field -in-the-100-level work.
