She was tested right after the 48.14, she changed her address, notified the athletics committee and they said her notification was late, they went to that address 4 x, mind you this is after testing her 19 times. She’s naturally gifted and her drive is amazing. SMU will have no excuses this time around.
So you think she ran the fastest clean time in history (48.14), even though it was her 5th race in 5 days and it shaved 0.94s off her PB? Unbelievably naive. Everyone knew she wasn't clean before the whereabouts issues
@@Mart-B Well said, and if you read the full report from the hearing (65 pages plus) it's absolutely clear that she was deliberately misleading the testers. She gave the address of a house that did not exist! She also said she had messaged her team to file one of the whereabouts but when asked to produce the message she couldn't. For another W/A's she would not answer the door. The only people who back her are those who have not examined the evidence fully. She should've received a lifetime ban.
This is a very important video, and thank you so much for making it and giving a balanced and nauced commentary. You have my respect. Salwa never tested positive for any drugs. Knowing a bit about her personally (was with her in Nigeria during the Christmas of 2019), I can say she was very careless and frankly distracted with love (another story). But she is not a drug cheat. I am happy she served her time and was not given special treatment. However, I also want to say that there was always a narrative of her sudden rise, and that is not true. She rose steadily through the ranks on the African and Asian and World youth circuits. The fact that she doesn't have an NCAA or European history doesn't invalidate her rise. She is back, and I know she has been training like someone with something to prove. I am hoping she calms down and comes to the boil slowly. She doesn't need the gold medal this year. 2024 Paris should be her focus and where she should answer all questions. I wish her well. In my opinion, she is the only one with a realistic propect of breaking that WR. Her coach posted a video last month where Salwa put a new WR in the 400 as her 2023 goal. I wish her well. But she should slow down or risk injury. Fun fact!! Her coach, who took her to 48.14, is the same coach that Paulino has. He is the Steven Francis of the 40om. Lol. NB: Guy, if you are ever in the NY, NJ, or PA area, let me know. would love to meet in person. Naija for life.
Thanks for watching! Yes I appreciate you recognized I tried to be balanced. And also want to clarify, sure I had questions about her situation, but never about her quick rise or even if she was doping. I really dont think that because she was tested I think 19 times in 2019 anyway. But my questions were just with the process and the strange confusing dismissal of that one whereabouts failure. But like I said, I dont want to be questioning, I rather be excited to see what she can do! Naser is a one in a generation athlete and is one of the best ever. Thats really cool the you know her a bit from some years ago and I agree that she has the potential to break the World Record! It will be tough but possible! And yea! Im actually Nigerian myself, based in NYC! I'll be at Penn Relays this weekend and will also be at the NYC Grand Prix in June if you plan to go to any of though meets!
@Nnamdi I agree, very impressed with Andy’s balanced/nuanced commentary. Even the respect with which you described Shaunae’s story as “taking a break to start a family” without pathologizing pregnancy. Twale jare! @Andy, I actually live in Philly. Hmu this wknd if ur schedule permits 👍🏿. (I follow u on IG)
It is unfortunate that journalists and influencers support athletes who have been sanctioned for drugs, I think it is very clear that she cheated and the world knows it, it would be ethical for reporters or commentators to highlight the work of athletes who do not use drugs instead of praise fraud
It is crazy Naser is only 24! she's younger than the major threats at worlds such as Paulino, Sada, and Klaver. The college kids like Diggs and Adeleke are younger but they have a long season ahead.
I guess that he is forgetting that the men's world record holder was out for an even longer period because of injury and is already almost back to his former level. Pedigree makes a difference.
Ppl don’t realize she was a child prodigy overseas similar to sydney. She was a elite junior athlete and she made the Olympics at 17. And medal the next year at world champs.
We were robbed a great rivalry between miller-uibo vs Naser. I honestly feel like she lost two gold medals for the Olympics and world champs. But I think she’s back on a vengeance tour
@@TheFinalLeg yessir especially on that track. The women 400 final in Tokyo was loaded every women ran sub 50 just to qualify for the the final. And the final was even faster
Whereabout bans don't just hurt the athlete so these folks really need to get it together. What coach, agent or sponsor is going to put their life on hold and wait for you to regain eligibility?
Both her parents are Nigerian. Her original name is ebere agbapuonwu. She is from Onitsha, Anambra state was enticed to switch to Bahrain and changed her name.
I honestly believe that her ban was just the result of her childish frivolity. Her talent is unquestionable. I am predicting now bar any injuries/mishaps, that she will medal at the world championship and the Olympics.
Yea my questions are just around the sketchy whereabouts process. I don't think she was really cheating at all. But I pretty much agree, barring injury if she gets back on pace, she is a medal threat
You guys are sure funny. You have one job with testing. To be where you are supposed to be for 1 hour. But hey, continue to refuse to believe the evidence.
Yes she should be back! why not if the authorities decide so? You gonna know Naser is a Nigerian Mentality! That a statement itself! Trust me she will put a show right there! I am sure she has improved during her time off the track and she is still pretty much young to do so.
I remember that great performance at the 2019 World Champs. The controversy after always made me question the time. However, I'm looking to see what she brings this year even though I'm not sure she should be back in the sports. I guess everyone deserves the benefit of the doubt.
Fair assessment, But yea I think we are all looking to see what she can do this year now that she is back from her suspension. Whatever questions may be there, she is an amazing talent and will definitely be one to watch this year!
I'm glad to see Ms. Naser back in the mix, and hope that she can regain her previous form. I hope those performances were legit. If not, I hope she will make the most of this opportunity to redeem herself.
I saw Salwa for the first time in the 2017 WAC. What impressed me was her grit and determination. If you watch her races since then especially when she is challenged you will see a real fighter. With her diminutive stature and age she quickly became one of my favourite athletes. My opinion on the fight against drug cheats is that apart from clear cut failed drug tests, it’s really hard to take a totally righteous stand with inconclusive cases. I believe that we should trust the anti-doping authorities who are doing a great job in making it less an less attractive to choose banned substances. I feel there is likely to be increased focus on athletes coming back from a ban so I’m exited to renew my interest in watching Salwa’s progress. By the way great video as usual. There is unfortunately an influx of “analysis” videos that are total rubbish but tend to be the first to report on content. As an athletics fan eager for content it’s extremely frustrating to have to waste even 10 seconds on them. Keep up the great work.
Selwa was improving at a rapid rate from very young. You eluded to it yourself when you mentioned her time improvement over the rounds of a meeting. This leads me to believe that she is genuine regarding her performances. I think young people at times do not take authority seriously until they are reprimanded. I think upcoming performances will prove me right
Great video! I think it's hard for most people to believe that with so much to lose someone would miss testing appointments. Especially people that have already shown a tremendous amount of discipline to compete at the highest level.
I didn’t even knew she was suspended. I thought he was injured 🤕 😢. Wow… and I watched track and field all seasons long. 😮. Good for her, welcome back. Can’t wait to see her compete. What happen, why was she suspended.
Excellent analysis. Very balanced and thoughtful. It looks like she started off in early May with a 50.8. If I had to guess, I would say she will run lower 49s by the end of June. However, the advent of the 400m hurdlers really does throw it much more open. I really wonder if anyone can beat Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone IF she chooses the open 400.
Barring any injuries she will return and shock us. Her second 400m since her return and running 50.27s she will be in the gold medal hunt. Yes, she does her time; Justin Gatlin's drug charges were bigger than hers didn't hear you asking if he should have returned to the sports.
Have we forgotten that Christin Coleman was suspended for the exact same reason.The only difference was he's American and he appealed his suspension and got it shorten.
Not sure if whereabouts failures definitely means she cheated but that race where she took down SMU was a stone cold classic. I'd like to think that anyone doping would be caught with actual tests. I hope she's competitive at least. She's still in her prime and hopefully has a chip on her shoulders. I think SMU will never get back to sub 49 shape after having a child at her age so she's probably out of the picture for the future. From her comments before announcing her pregnancy it sounded like she was going into the heptathlon.
Completely agree that race was a classic. The best race of 2019 and one of the best races in the past decade. But your right, she is still in her prime and has the potential of go sub 48 and faster so well see. Your right that Miller-Uibo said she planned to leave the 400m anyway. And I don't blame her. She she could have gone for sub 48, but at this point, she has won everything. Double Olympic Gold, World Champion, World Indoor Champion, World Youth, Junior, Commonwealth etc... She is the GOAT of this generation. Aside from the East Germans, Mari Josee Perec is probably the only one overall ahead of her.
This whereabouts issue is becoming a problem. I think u shouldn’t be allowed to run a race until you take that emergency test. That way we can avoid the speculation and issues, if you miss two test you should be given a fine.
Exactly,and shut up those haters that still think you had cheated,even though your drug test came back negative, after you demolished shanuea miller uibo and the rest
After I saw her run those two rounds of 4x400 mixed relays and then beat Uibo the way she did with running such a fast time, I kinda knew something was up.
whyte people stole for 400 years and now they are the richest race on the planet....so let Salwa nasser cheat if she can....we need every penny....whether is through cheating or not....i think thats fair.
Athletes don't exist in a vacuum. Naser is an elite athlete, meaning, apart from her coaches she has an agent and a manager and is a member of a Sports Federation. Now, apart from the Federation, all these people are employed by Naser and it's not in their interest to sit back and allow her to engage in the kind of reckless behaviour that would end with a three-year ban and subsequent loss of income for all concerned parties. So, with all this in mind, I'm wondering why her team and her Federation didn't stage an intervention after the second whereabouts failure? After all, the Federation had something to lose if such a high profile athlete was disgraced over such a serious matter as repeated whereabouts failures. That they allowed 4 whereabouts failures to accumulate under her name without calling her to order is the best piece of circumstantial evidence to support any claims of PED usage. So, as much as I love Naser's smooth and elegant running style and her blistering speed, I will never be able to get behind her no matter what she achieves in the future. I can't think of any athlete in the history of the sport who has self-destructed so badly if all this is simply down to nothing more sinister than a careless and lackadaisical attitude towards sporting regulations.
Great job on breaking it down on Naser! I read somewhere that the AIU, supposedly, showed up at the wrong door in her apartment complex on the 3rd whereabouts. She does not seem to be too fluent in English, this may be a big barrier for her with the drug testing. But, it seems to me, way too many black athletes have problems with the AIU. Maybe they are being unfairly targeted? Just saying.
@@barrychambers4047 it’s always something extra i immediately think about Isaac makwala from Botswana in 2017 they cost that man a medal at world champs. Mboma hell blessing got 10 yrs from a failed drug test 10 yrs is a long time
If tests after the race were negative, suggesting otherwise is only an allegation. That said, the field is deep this time around and three years is a long time to bounce back just like that. She’s not medaling at Worlds.
Yes she had multiple tests that passed so she is good. It's just unfortunate the process was questionable that she got caught up in. But regardless, she is back and yes 3 years is a long time, but she is only 24. If healthy, she should be a serious threat if not this year than in 2024
I became a fan after that race. But athletes who are clean don’t miss multiple consecutive drug tests right as their career blossoms and they’re set to make lots of money.
The queen of 400m ..we in the USA love her because she put cheating sliding across the line Shaunie Miller in her place.. Shauna couldn't cheat slide because Naser was way ahead of her😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
You sound confused my brother. Naser has been running elite level times since she was 18. You are arguing like she is in her mid thirties or something. Surely if Gatlin could come all the way back to his former level after missing almost 3 years when he was much older why can't she ?. Just sit back and watch the ride like the rest of us. Exciting times are looming ahead in her event.
How so? I noted that she was doing amazing when she was young in 2015 and 2016 when she was 17 and 18, but she was not well known yet to most in the track world until 2017. I never said she can't make it back, I actually said she CAN make it back this year and win gold especially if she opens up with 50 or better. But even if she opens up slower she can still make it ill just wait and see. And this was only a prediction for this year, maybe next year she is running 47. Thanks for watching!
I'm sorry, but it was always suspicious to me the way Naser made an almost 1s improvement in her 400m PB from 49.08 in Jul '18 to 48.14 in Oct '19 despite relatively modest times in her 100m (11.24m), 200m (22.51) & 300m (37.92) during that period! Her blasé statement re missing 3 drug tests was just bizarre! Was a shame she didn't start any of the 100/200m races she entered @MJ Invitational this past wkend, eager to see where she's at after 3.5yrs out of the sport! Paulino for me has been quietly & steadily making gains since 2019 in her 100m (11.44 to 11.38), 200m (23.03 to 22.36) & 400m (51.88 to 48.99). She also quietly ran 35.16 in the 300m 5wks ago which is the 3rd fastest ever behind Shaunae's 34.41 & Masilingi's 34.60! She easily gets dismissed imo as the WC 400m Gold Medal Favourite w/o Shaunae, Syd, Femke & Britton running the event!
I hear you there. I never really had questions about her rise or significant drop in time in Doha. There are many athletes drop significant times all the time, and also 100/200 may not be as indicative of 400m performance for some. Look at Kirani James who has consistently run 43, but never touches the 100 and 200 (he ran 20.6 the year of his 43.7 PB). My questions really are around that strange case of the tester not being able to find her location and then her saying missing 3 tests is normal. But yea wanted to see her this weekend, but well have to wait and see. I still think she can come back and win gold if things go well. Paulino definitely has been on the up and up. And she is a late bloomer, so despite being in her late 20s, she is getting better. But I'll be honest, I dont see Paulino has a odds on favorite if Bol, Wilson or McLaughlin are in the 400m. I think thoes 3 are the best 400m runners right now if they chose to run. But also want to say that if Miller-Uibo was not pregnant, I would bet on her to win Gold regardless of who is running. I really dont think we've seen a 400m runner like her since the days of Perec or Sanya Richards-Ross, meaning a strong 100/200/400 threat. Steiner I think is in that realm but she is focusing on the short sprints.
@@TheFinalLeg My point was less about her 100-300m times and more re the huge drop in her 400m PB as there's no other clean female athlete in history I can think of that has dropped almost 1s specifically from a low 49s PB to a low 48s PB. The drops in times don't get that large for women once they hit low 49s especially without some history of progression! Even Shaunae went from 49.46 in '17 to 48.97 in '18 (0.49s drop) to 48.37 in '19 (a max 0.6s drop)! There was a steady progression in the years leading to her 48.36/48.37 PBs in comparison to Naser! Yes Paulino's a late bloomer as she literally didn't start running the 400m properly till 2021 as a 24yr old as she'd run far more 100/200m races till then, plus I literally inserted the caveat that "w/o Shaunae, Syd, Femke & Britton running the event" this year, she should then be the WC 400m favourite given both her back-to-back Olympic/WC Silvers, 48.99 PB & recent 35.16 300m PB (3rd all-time). Love Shaunae (10.98/21.74/48.36), but would argue that we've seen that 100/200/400m threat in Shericka Jackson (10.71/21.45/49.47) more so than Abby Steiner (10.90/21.77/50.59 indoors). Since levelling up in the short sprints, we just need to see what Shericka can truly run in the 400m if she ever commits to it again full-time! In an interview last year, she said she expects to run 48.3 - 48.5 if she went back to the 400m FT and I think she can, but not sure if she'll ever go back to it FT!
@@AllInTheGame01 My bad I did gloss over you said without SMU and the hurdlers! Your right there for sure Paulino is the favorite. I actually forgot about Jackson. I think she confuses me a bit. I thought she would have been a sub 49 runner even by 2019, but for sure if she kept running now. The 50 sec 400 she ran this year shows that she could do it, but then then other 400's confuse me. Sure they are early season and she said she wont run anymore this year, but I hope we get to see her try the 400m one more time for a season. though with the Olympics next year, it doesn't seem likely (at least when shes in her prime) Unfortunately the sample size for low 48 runners is tiny (basically 6 women) so its tough to compare. PB progressions of the top 8 all-time 400m women: Koch: 48.94 --> 48.60 --> 48.16 --> 47.60 Kratochvilova: 49.01 --> 48.61 --> 47.99 Naser: 49.55 --> 49.08 --> 48.14 Perec: 49.13 --> 48.83 --> 48.25 Bryzgina: 48.98 --> 48.96 --> 48.60 --> 48.27 SMU: 49.44 --> 48.97 --> 48.37 Kocembova: 50.41 --> 49.67 --> 48.59 Freeman: 50.04 --> 49.61 --> 48.63 Kocembova and Cathy Freeman are outliers here and actually had more drastic improvements than Naser to a degree. Kocembova ran 50.41 in 1982, then 49.67 in June 1983 and 48.59 in August 1983. Freeman ran 50.04 in 1994, 50.21 in 1995, then 49.61 in July 1996 and 48.63 at the 1996 Olympics Both like Naser, had a massive jump in terms of from 1 year to the next. You can actually argue both were more significant because they never broke 50 entering the year they ran 48 seconds. Naser at least ran consistent 49s throughout 2018 before Doha the next year. Kocembova obviously had questions though so theres that, but Freeman is the one comparison here with a huge improvement, and she is basically a legend in the 400m But overall, I hear you about the improvement
11.24 and 22.51 are not modest times but Salwa is a 400m runner, not a 100m or 200m runner. Running fast times in the shorter sprints doesn’t guarantee success in the 400m. Never had any doubts about Salwa Eid Naser, she’s a pure natural talent- if more Nigerian girls had the same opportunity, Nigeria itself could produce lots of world champions
Hmm, 3 years off from competing. I would say that she will be on the right track if she breaks 51 secs when she returns. I seriously doubt she's going to break 50 secs in her first outing. Her best bet to run well, is to begin at an invitational where she doesn't have to run sections to get to the final. I doubt she is ready to handle multiple high quality races over the course of a few days like she would need to do in a diamond league event.
Good point, she should likely dust the rust off first in a low key meet and then jump into a big race andake progress from there. Luckily Worlds is in Augusy so she has se time to prepare
y didn't mention she won Asian games Gold as well.. which tag her African Gold importer for Bahrain.. issue is unlike USA and Europe Asian team doesn't use African born athlete . After her Gold Medal wining in Asian Games Indian newspaper portray her and entire Bahrain negatively . Bahrain said they didn't do anything wrong take and example of USA and UK like Country's..... like the quint news paper published an article back in 2018 with a tag Indian athlete lose Gold Medal to Bahranians from Africa .
As someone said, thanks for being biased,misleading, and "unobjective," but being nice about it.😂 Athletes are held to a higher standard than the rest of us. Your life and time aren't yours any longer. You're talking about a 20/21 year old, whose peers are in Uni, getting stoned, getting drunk every weekend, and doing drugs. The young lady misses 3 whereabouts tests/incidents and allegedly becomes a drug cheat. Remember: during this period, she had no fixed address. Christian Coleman received a suspension for exactly the same reason, I don't see you questioning his time,performance, records, whereabouts, or his good name for that matter.
Never said she was a drug cheat. I had questions and issues about the process. Naser was tested multiple times leading up to Doha so I doubt doubt that these fine. Looking forward to see what she can do this year though, thanks for watching!
@The Final Leg When you say "questions and issues" Please specify 🙏 Watch your video again or ask a totally random individual to watch it and give you their honest opinion. There's a lot implied in your words, which may not be your intention, but the implications are there, veiled, but there.
I was suspicious about that 48.14 the night it happened. Such an extreme drop in PR, plus, to my eyes, there was just something unnatural about seeing a runner put the petal to the medal from start to finish in the 400m. NO ONE does that. There was no pacing, just all-out. I hope she makes all of her tests and stays clean so we have nothing to question.
That's fair but look at Miller-Uibo who ran 48.36 solo in Tokyo. So it's not crazy. We'll see what Naser is able to do this year and next. She's still only 24 so very very young as well
I didn't see pedals to the medal straight thru. I saw she nailed that 2nd turn and a strong finish. She had been working on doing that for 18 months and continued competition with Miller Uibo brought that greatness out.
100% sure this nigerian woman will participate to 2023 asian athletic championship and asian game. shewill steal 200m & 400m womens gold medals from asian women in those games. Sad situation .
Don’t BELIEVE the HYPE every time you hear someone is doping. Yes she deserves to come back. God made it for her to come back. That’s a TALENT the most High gave her. They were wrong for BANDING HER FOR SURE she did nothing WRONG) for that dame long. You a HATER.
There is so much at stake for a clean athlete to miss drugs tests which is why not missing these would be an absolute priority for a coaching team. Under this context, any athlete that misses sufficient tests to get banned is almost certainly doing this to avoid being tested positive. For me it's a closed case, I don't recognise her as the 2019 champion nor do I have her 48.14 time inside the top 10 all time. In fact I think her medal shouldve been stripped and her ban extended. The whereabouts loophole allow athletes like Naser to misbehave at the expense of other athletes.
I do agree to an extent, but, then I also believe I read at the time one of her out of missed season tests was due to the ineptness of the official knocking on a door of a broom cupboard rather than her apartment door in Bahrain.
@@toonyinc4879 If you read the full report from the hearing (65 pages plus) it's absolutely clear that she was deliberately misleading the testers. She gave the address of a house that did not exist! She also said she had messaged her team to file one of the whereabouts but when asked to produce the message she couldn't. For another W/A's she would not answer the door. She should've received a lifetime ban like all those who evade testers.
Thanks for watching Xavier! How were my comments biased and leading? I definitely didn't want to come off like that. To clarify: I question the process of dismissing one of the whereabouts failures because if the confusion and I also am disappointed in Nasers comment that missing 3 tests are normal. I don't think she ever cheated or was doping or anything. Just questioning the process. She's an amazing athlete regardless.
Your right, and I should clarify my questions are with the process and she just happened to get caught up in it. I don't think she ever doped or anything. So she should be back on track and in the hunt for a medal this year
@@TheFinalLeg Respect your opinion but to say 'I dont think she doped' is wrong cos she missed those 4 times hence you have no idea what the results would be
One of the greatest? Her is fact. She was the 2019 World champion with the third fastest time in history and not the fastest of 48.14 seconds, becoming the youngest-ever champion in the event and also the first woman representing an Asian nation not the world the Asian nations to win that event at a World Championships. Stop lying that she’s the greatest. She’d not.
so tired of white lily reportage. so easy to create doubt... too bad it takes away from her success. she had over 20 testing for this olympic, but spreading s... like this causes bad "reporters" to be rude to her right after winning silver instead of congratulating her and asking relevant questions
I always doubted the integrity of this woman even before the ban. My conscious always told me she has to be a cheat. Why would someone fail to be available for one hour, four times? Pure character of someone who is not clean.
@@hairtoss7975 She had already been tested 20 times in the 2019 world championships and got rested after the 400m final at the games as of recent. All of those tests have came clean. Her whereabouts ban came due to mismatched communications between both her and then the people of WADA. I’m willing to give her the benefit of doubt in thinking she’s a huge talent especially over 400m
She was tested right after the 48.14, she changed her address, notified the athletics committee and they said her notification was late, they went to that address 4 x, mind you this is after testing her 19 times. She’s naturally gifted and her drive is amazing. SMU will have no excuses this time around.
The ban was unfair ?
So you think she ran the fastest clean time in history (48.14), even though it was her 5th race in 5 days and it shaved 0.94s off her PB? Unbelievably naive. Everyone knew she wasn't clean before the whereabouts issues
@@Mart-B Well said, and if you read the full report from the hearing (65 pages plus) it's absolutely clear that she was deliberately misleading the testers. She gave the address of a house that did not exist! She also said she had messaged her team to file one of the whereabouts but when asked to produce the message she couldn't. For another W/A's she would not answer the door. The only people who back her are those who have not examined the evidence fully. She should've received a lifetime ban.
Im glad that shes back. She's a beast in the 400!! I hope that she can get back to form.
This is a very important video, and thank you so much for making it and giving a balanced and nauced commentary. You have my respect. Salwa never tested positive for any drugs. Knowing a bit about her personally (was with her in Nigeria during the Christmas of 2019), I can say she was very careless and frankly distracted with love (another story). But she is not a drug cheat. I am happy she served her time and was not given special treatment. However, I also want to say that there was always a narrative of her sudden rise, and that is not true. She rose steadily through the ranks on the African and Asian and World youth circuits. The fact that she doesn't have an NCAA or European history doesn't invalidate her rise. She is back, and I know she has been training like someone with something to prove. I am hoping she calms down and comes to the boil slowly. She doesn't need the gold medal this year. 2024 Paris should be her focus and where she should answer all questions. I wish her well. In my opinion, she is the only one with a realistic propect of breaking that WR. Her coach posted a video last month where Salwa put a new WR in the 400 as her 2023 goal. I wish her well. But she should slow down or risk injury. Fun fact!! Her coach, who took her to 48.14, is the same coach that Paulino has. He is the Steven Francis of the 40om. Lol.
NB: Guy, if you are ever in the NY, NJ, or PA area, let me know. would love to meet in person. Naija for life.
Thanks for watching! Yes I appreciate you recognized I tried to be balanced. And also want to clarify, sure I had questions about her situation, but never about her quick rise or even if she was doping. I really dont think that because she was tested I think 19 times in 2019 anyway. But my questions were just with the process and the strange confusing dismissal of that one whereabouts failure. But like I said, I dont want to be questioning, I rather be excited to see what she can do!
Naser is a one in a generation athlete and is one of the best ever. Thats really cool the you know her a bit from some years ago and I agree that she has the potential to break the World Record! It will be tough but possible!
And yea! Im actually Nigerian myself, based in NYC! I'll be at Penn Relays this weekend and will also be at the NYC Grand Prix in June if you plan to go to any of though meets!
Do you have this video from her coach? What's his name?
@Nnamdi I agree, very impressed with Andy’s balanced/nuanced commentary. Even the respect with which you described Shaunae’s story as “taking a break to start a family” without pathologizing pregnancy. Twale jare!
@Andy, I actually live in Philly. Hmu this wknd if ur schedule permits 👍🏿. (I follow u on IG)
Yes definitely, she was a phenomenal Jr athlete. But she didn't get the spotlight due to not running much in the USA and Europe.
It is unfortunate that journalists and influencers support athletes who have been sanctioned for drugs, I think it is very clear that she cheated and the world knows it, it would be ethical for reporters or commentators to highlight the work of athletes who do not use drugs instead of praise fraud
It is crazy Naser is only 24! she's younger than the major threats at worlds such as Paulino, Sada, and Klaver. The college kids like Diggs and Adeleke are younger but they have a long season ahead.
So true, super young and has a lot of potential despite her time away. Will be interesting to see what she can do this year and next!
I guess that he is forgetting that the men's world record holder was out for an even longer period because of injury and is already almost back to his former level. Pedigree makes a difference.
Ppl don’t realize she was a child prodigy overseas similar to sydney. She was a elite junior athlete and she made the Olympics at 17. And medal the next year at world champs.
I think it's crazier that most people don't know she's actually NIGERIAN.. Born and Bred..
@@ThaSpeedsterZthe Nigeria Athletics Federation messed up and she left. She’s Nigerian born and bred.
We were robbed a great rivalry between miller-uibo vs Naser. I honestly feel like she lost two gold medals for the Olympics and world champs. But I think she’s back on a vengeance tour
Imagine we saw Naser vs Miller-Uibo in Tokyo. Considering Smiller-Uibo ran 48.36 solo there, Im sure Naser would have push them both to sub 48!
@@TheFinalLeg yessir especially on that track. The women 400 final in Tokyo was loaded every women ran sub 50 just to qualify for the the final. And the final was even faster
Whereabout bans don't just hurt the athlete so these folks really need to get it together. What coach, agent or sponsor is going to put their life on hold and wait for you to regain eligibility?
Both her parents are Nigerian. Her original name is ebere agbapuonwu. She is from Onitsha, Anambra state was enticed to switch to Bahrain and changed her name.
I honestly believe that her ban was just the result of her childish frivolity. Her talent is unquestionable. I am predicting now bar any injuries/mishaps, that she will medal at the world championship and the Olympics.
Yea my questions are just around the sketchy whereabouts process. I don't think she was really cheating at all. But I pretty much agree, barring injury if she gets back on pace, she is a medal threat
True, if you watch all her races from 2017 up to 2019, she was gradually improving her times
Mclaughlin will beat her even with hurdles😂😂😂
@@TheFinalLeg
I don't trust all the reasoning that comes from these Track and Field organizations;
Too much politics has entered in
You guys are sure funny. You have one job with testing. To be where you are supposed to be for 1 hour. But hey, continue to refuse to believe the evidence.
Yes she should be back! why not if the authorities decide so? You gonna know Naser is a Nigerian Mentality! That a statement itself! Trust me she will put a show right there! I am sure she has improved during her time off the track and she is still pretty much young to do so.
I remember that great performance at the 2019 World Champs. The controversy after always made me question the time. However, I'm looking to see what she brings this year even though I'm not sure she should be back in the sports. I guess everyone deserves the benefit of the doubt.
Fair assessment, But yea I think we are all looking to see what she can do this year now that she is back from her suspension. Whatever questions may be there, she is an amazing talent and will definitely be one to watch this year!
Has she ever been caught with dope in her system?
@@patrickogunleye9953 I believe it was a where about violation.
Happy she's back,,didn't understand what happened to her, thanks for this video
I'm glad to see Ms. Naser back in the mix, and hope that she can regain her previous form. I hope those performances were legit. If not, I hope she will make the most of this opportunity to redeem herself.
Don't you think that her 400m time of 48.14. Would warrant a drug test right after that performance, and if she was on drugs it would have shown
I saw Salwa for the first time in the 2017 WAC. What impressed me was her grit and determination. If you watch her races since then especially when she is challenged you will see a real fighter. With her diminutive stature and age she quickly became one of my favourite athletes. My opinion on the fight against drug cheats is that apart from clear cut failed drug tests, it’s really hard to take a totally righteous stand with inconclusive cases. I believe that we should trust the anti-doping authorities who are doing a great job in making it less an less attractive to choose banned substances. I feel there is likely to be increased focus on athletes coming back from a ban so I’m exited to renew my interest in watching Salwa’s progress. By the way great video as usual. There is unfortunately an influx of “analysis” videos that are total rubbish but tend to be the first to report on content. As an athletics fan eager for content it’s extremely frustrating to have to waste even 10 seconds on them. Keep up the great work.
I like both athletes but to be honest, maybe if Naser was not banned she would have win instead of miller uibo.
Selwa was improving at a rapid rate from very young. You eluded to it yourself when you mentioned her time improvement over the rounds of a meeting.
This leads me to believe that she is genuine regarding her performances.
I think young people at times do not take authority seriously until they are reprimanded.
I think upcoming performances will prove me right
Great video! I think it's hard for most people to believe that with so much to lose someone would miss testing appointments. Especially people that have already shown a tremendous amount of discipline to compete at the highest level.
I am very happy and interested to see her back.
I am a new subscriber blessings and compliments from New York City.
I didn’t even knew she was suspended. I thought he was injured 🤕 😢. Wow… and I watched track and field all seasons long. 😮. Good for her, welcome back. Can’t wait to see her compete. What happen, why was she suspended.
She was suspended for missing 3 drug tests (what they call whereabouts failures). But she never tested positive so not cheating
Thanks for watching!
its same thing as cheating
Welcome Queen. 400m gon be sweet again
Good to see her back. Hope she gets back to that 48:00
She is my idol...i hope she still runs.
I dont care what anybody says,i still luv this woman.Ive followed her since she started.I hope she can get to the Olympics.

@@TheFinalLeg
Yes Sir!
Also, I'm asking, will you be having coverage for Track and Field Events the entire season?
I miss her a lot
Excellent analysis. Very balanced and thoughtful. It looks like she started off in early May with a 50.8. If I had to guess, I would say she will run lower 49s by the end of June. However, the advent of the 400m hurdlers really does throw it much more open. I really wonder if anyone can beat Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone IF she chooses the open 400.
Paulino beat her comfortably and she ran back to hurdles.
Barring any injuries she will return and shock us. Her second 400m since her return and running 50.27s she will be in the gold medal hunt. Yes, she does her time; Justin Gatlin's drug charges were bigger than hers didn't hear you asking if he should have returned to the sports.
Have we forgotten that Christin Coleman was suspended for the exact same reason.The only difference was he's American and he appealed his suspension and got it shorten.
Thank you!!!!!!
You do realize we talking about the 400 m WOMEN? Not nationality or men
@Elle N Like D Lynch said "The Exact Same Reason "! We are looking at the context.
oh!!
Not sure if whereabouts failures definitely means she cheated but that race where she took down SMU was a stone cold classic. I'd like to think that anyone doping would be caught with actual tests. I hope she's competitive at least. She's still in her prime and hopefully has a chip on her shoulders. I think SMU will never get back to sub 49 shape after having a child at her age so she's probably out of the picture for the future. From her comments before announcing her pregnancy it sounded like she was going into the heptathlon.
Completely agree that race was a classic. The best race of 2019 and one of the best races in the past decade. But your right, she is still in her prime and has the potential of go sub 48 and faster so well see.
Your right that Miller-Uibo said she planned to leave the 400m anyway. And I don't blame her. She she could have gone for sub 48, but at this point, she has won everything. Double Olympic Gold, World Champion, World Indoor Champion, World Youth, Junior, Commonwealth etc... She is the GOAT of this generation. Aside from the East Germans, Mari Josee Perec is probably the only one overall ahead of her.
Did Ms. Shellyanne still run fast after she had her son . What an amazingly ignorant comment
This is why I don’t doubt naser’s time bcuz she was immediately tested after that race. If the athlete passes the test then it’s all good
@@certifiedchaos4643 Marion Jones never failed a test either.
@@dereckdean578 true they test different now tho athletes get tested like 20 t0 40 times a year

Great content, as always.
Always appreciate you watching!
Shaunae was looking forward to running the 2OO this year. And Sid is coming to run the 400 flat.
Sid will be fierce
This whereabouts issue is becoming a problem. I think u shouldn’t be allowed to run a race until you take that emergency test. That way we can avoid the speculation and issues, if you miss two test you should be given a fine.
Excellent analysis, thank you.
i enjoy your every one of your shows always look forward for post

Did you have the energy when the same thing happen to the US 100 world champion who they only suspended for 1 yr
Time for your revenge Salwa ... go get all ur gold medal u lost my dear ❤❤😘
Exactly,and shut up those haters that still think you had cheated,even though your drug test came back negative, after you demolished shanuea miller uibo and the rest
Grit Breuer was also 19 when she win silver in the 400 1991 in Tokyo
Yea I think Naser was a few months younger than Breuer (Naser was born May, Breuer February)
LET GO D.R LOVE THE D.R❤❤❤
Most beautiful, elegant running style I've ever seen.
I'm sooo glad she's back. Lil sexy thang❤❤😘😘
I wish she returned back to her normal form 😊❤
After I saw her run those two rounds of 4x400 mixed relays and then beat Uibo the way she did with running such a fast time, I kinda knew something was up.
whyte people stole for 400 years and now they are the richest race on the planet....so let Salwa nasser cheat if she can....we need every penny....whether is through cheating or not....i think thats fair.
@@fin-rb3yz no the hell that ain't Fair she gets no brakes you people have no Integrity or honor😂😂
Naser both parents are from Nigeria
"Seek peace, but be ready to go to war"
Athletes don't exist in a vacuum. Naser is an elite athlete, meaning, apart from her coaches she has an agent and a manager and is a member of a Sports Federation.
Now, apart from the Federation, all these people are employed by Naser and it's not in their interest to sit back and allow her to engage in the kind of reckless behaviour that would end with a three-year ban and subsequent loss of income for all concerned parties.
So, with all this in mind, I'm wondering why her team and her Federation didn't stage an intervention after the second whereabouts failure? After all, the Federation had something to lose if such a high profile athlete was disgraced over such a serious matter as repeated whereabouts failures.
That they allowed 4 whereabouts failures to accumulate under her name without calling her to order is the best piece of circumstantial evidence to support any claims of PED usage.
So, as much as I love Naser's smooth and elegant running style and her blistering speed, I will never be able to get behind her no matter what she achieves in the future. I can't think of any athlete in the history of the sport who has self-destructed so badly if all this is simply down to nothing more sinister than a careless and lackadaisical attitude towards sporting regulations.
Wasn't christian Coleman banned for the same circumstances. I wonder🤔.
She was just young , but no drugs.
I’m glad that she came back and frightened Shaunae Miller Uibo out of Paris 😂
Sir salwa rise was not sudden . That year she ran 48.14 u saw nasser coming.
Yes her and Miller Uibo built up to it.
Do we know when her next race is?
She was supposed to run the 100/200 this past weekend in Texas but didn't show up so no idea, but hopefully soon
Great job on breaking it down on Naser! I read somewhere that the AIU, supposedly, showed up at the wrong door in her apartment complex on the 3rd whereabouts. She does not seem to be too fluent in English, this may be a big barrier for her with the drug testing. But, it seems to me, way too many black athletes have problems with the AIU. Maybe they are being unfairly targeted? Just saying.
Especially those who are from African countries
@@certifiedchaos4643 I couldn't agree more!
@@barrychambers4047 it’s always something extra i immediately think about Isaac makwala from Botswana in 2017 they cost that man a medal at world champs. Mboma hell blessing got 10 yrs from a failed drug test 10 yrs is a long time
If tests after the race were negative, suggesting otherwise is only an allegation. That said, the field is deep this time around and three years is a long time to bounce back just like that. She’s not medaling at Worlds.
Yes she had multiple tests that passed so she is good. It's just unfortunate the process was questionable that she got caught up in. But regardless, she is back and yes 3 years is a long time, but she is only 24. If healthy, she should be a serious threat if not this year than in 2024
99 Terry. I just found she said her 2023 goal was the wr. I don't think she takes that lightly and must feel she is currently close enough.
She will make a high 48 come world's.
Welcome to America
I became a fan after that race. But athletes who are clean don’t miss multiple consecutive drug tests right as their career blossoms and they’re set to make lots of money.
The queen of 400m ..we in the USA love her because she put cheating sliding across the line Shaunie Miller in her place.. Shauna couldn't cheat slide because Naser was way ahead of her😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
You sound confused my brother. Naser has been running elite level times since she was 18. You are arguing like she is in her mid thirties or something. Surely if Gatlin could come all the way back to his former level after missing almost 3 years when he was much older why can't she ?. Just sit back and watch the ride like the rest of us. Exciting times are looming ahead in her event.
How so? I noted that she was doing amazing when she was young in 2015 and 2016 when she was 17 and 18, but she was not well known yet to most in the track world until 2017.
I never said she can't make it back, I actually said she CAN make it back this year and win gold especially if she opens up with 50 or better. But even if she opens up slower she can still make it ill just wait and see. And this was only a prediction for this year, maybe next year she is running 47.
Thanks for watching!
Good stuff ..A Lil Over analytical... Go with more feel & let folks draw they're own colclusion
I'm sorry, but it was always suspicious to me the way Naser made an almost 1s improvement in her 400m PB from 49.08 in Jul '18 to 48.14 in Oct '19 despite relatively modest times in her 100m (11.24m), 200m (22.51) & 300m (37.92) during that period! Her blasé statement re missing 3 drug tests was just bizarre! Was a shame she didn't start any of the 100/200m races she entered @MJ Invitational this past wkend, eager to see where she's at after 3.5yrs out of the sport!
Paulino for me has been quietly & steadily making gains since 2019 in her 100m (11.44 to 11.38), 200m (23.03 to 22.36) & 400m (51.88 to 48.99). She also quietly ran 35.16 in the 300m 5wks ago which is the 3rd fastest ever behind Shaunae's 34.41 & Masilingi's 34.60! She easily gets dismissed imo as the WC 400m Gold Medal Favourite w/o Shaunae, Syd, Femke & Britton running the event!
Happy to see you back 400m heroine
I hear you there. I never really had questions about her rise or significant drop in time in Doha. There are many athletes drop significant times all the time, and also 100/200 may not be as indicative of 400m performance for some. Look at Kirani James who has consistently run 43, but never touches the 100 and 200 (he ran 20.6 the year of his 43.7 PB). My questions really are around that strange case of the tester not being able to find her location and then her saying missing 3 tests is normal. But yea wanted to see her this weekend, but well have to wait and see. I still think she can come back and win gold if things go well.
Paulino definitely has been on the up and up. And she is a late bloomer, so despite being in her late 20s, she is getting better. But I'll be honest, I dont see Paulino has a odds on favorite if Bol, Wilson or McLaughlin are in the 400m. I think thoes 3 are the best 400m runners right now if they chose to run.
But also want to say that if Miller-Uibo was not pregnant, I would bet on her to win Gold regardless of who is running. I really dont think we've seen a 400m runner like her since the days of Perec or Sanya Richards-Ross, meaning a strong 100/200/400 threat. Steiner I think is in that realm but she is focusing on the short sprints.
@@TheFinalLeg My point was less about her 100-300m times and more re the huge drop in her 400m PB as there's no other clean female athlete in history I can think of that has dropped almost 1s specifically from a low 49s PB to a low 48s PB. The drops in times don't get that large for women once they hit low 49s especially without some history of progression! Even Shaunae went from 49.46 in '17 to 48.97 in '18 (0.49s drop) to 48.37 in '19 (a max 0.6s drop)! There was a steady progression in the years leading to her 48.36/48.37 PBs in comparison to Naser!
Yes Paulino's a late bloomer as she literally didn't start running the 400m properly till 2021 as a 24yr old as she'd run far more 100/200m races till then, plus I literally inserted the caveat that "w/o Shaunae, Syd, Femke & Britton running the event" this year, she should then be the WC 400m favourite given both her back-to-back Olympic/WC Silvers, 48.99 PB & recent 35.16 300m PB (3rd all-time).
Love Shaunae (10.98/21.74/48.36), but would argue that we've seen that 100/200/400m threat in Shericka Jackson (10.71/21.45/49.47) more so than Abby Steiner (10.90/21.77/50.59 indoors). Since levelling up in the short sprints, we just need to see what Shericka can truly run in the 400m if she ever commits to it again full-time! In an interview last year, she said she expects to run 48.3 - 48.5 if she went back to the 400m FT and I think she can, but not sure if she'll ever go back to it FT!
@@AllInTheGame01 My bad I did gloss over you said without SMU and the hurdlers! Your right there for sure Paulino is the favorite.
I actually forgot about Jackson. I think she confuses me a bit. I thought she would have been a sub 49 runner even by 2019, but for sure if she kept running now. The 50 sec 400 she ran this year shows that she could do it, but then then other 400's confuse me. Sure they are early season and she said she wont run anymore this year, but I hope we get to see her try the 400m one more time for a season. though with the Olympics next year, it doesn't seem likely (at least when shes in her prime)
Unfortunately the sample size for low 48 runners is tiny (basically 6 women) so its tough to compare.
PB progressions of the top 8 all-time 400m women:
Koch: 48.94 --> 48.60 --> 48.16 --> 47.60
Kratochvilova: 49.01 --> 48.61 --> 47.99
Naser: 49.55 --> 49.08 --> 48.14
Perec: 49.13 --> 48.83 --> 48.25
Bryzgina: 48.98 --> 48.96 --> 48.60 --> 48.27
SMU: 49.44 --> 48.97 --> 48.37
Kocembova: 50.41 --> 49.67 --> 48.59
Freeman: 50.04 --> 49.61 --> 48.63
Kocembova and Cathy Freeman are outliers here and actually had more drastic improvements than Naser to a degree.
Kocembova ran 50.41 in 1982, then 49.67 in June 1983 and 48.59 in August 1983.
Freeman ran 50.04 in 1994, 50.21 in 1995, then 49.61 in July 1996 and 48.63 at the 1996 Olympics
Both like Naser, had a massive jump in terms of from 1 year to the next. You can actually argue both were more significant because they never broke 50 entering the year they ran 48 seconds. Naser at least ran consistent 49s throughout 2018 before Doha the next year.
Kocembova obviously had questions though so theres that, but Freeman is the one comparison here with a huge improvement, and she is basically a legend in the 400m
But overall, I hear you about the improvement
11.24 and 22.51 are not modest times but Salwa is a 400m runner, not a 100m or 200m runner. Running fast times in the shorter sprints doesn’t guarantee success in the 400m. Never had any doubts about Salwa Eid Naser, she’s a pure natural talent- if more Nigerian girls had the same opportunity, Nigeria itself could produce lots of world champions
Hmm, 3 years off from competing. I would say that she will be on the right track if she breaks 51 secs when she returns. I seriously doubt she's going to break 50 secs in her first outing. Her best bet to run well, is to begin at an invitational where she doesn't have to run sections to get to the final. I doubt she is ready to handle multiple high quality races over the course of a few days like she would need to do in a diamond league event.
Good point, she should likely dust the rust off first in a low key meet and then jump into a big race andake progress from there. Luckily Worlds is in Augusy so she has se time to prepare
If she takes some more of that juice she can😂😂
I would like to see athingmo in the mix
y didn't mention she won Asian games Gold as well.. which tag her African Gold importer for Bahrain.. issue is unlike USA and Europe Asian team doesn't use African born athlete . After her Gold Medal wining in Asian Games Indian newspaper portray her and entire Bahrain negatively . Bahrain said they didn't do anything wrong take and example of USA and UK like Country's..... like the quint news paper published an article back in 2018 with a tag Indian athlete lose Gold Medal to Bahranians from Africa .
As someone said, thanks for being biased,misleading, and "unobjective," but being nice about it.😂
Athletes are held to a higher standard than the rest of us. Your life and time aren't yours any longer.
You're talking about a 20/21 year old, whose peers are in Uni, getting stoned, getting drunk every weekend, and doing drugs.
The young lady misses 3 whereabouts tests/incidents and allegedly becomes a drug cheat.
Remember: during this period, she had no fixed address. Christian Coleman received a suspension for exactly the same reason, I don't see you questioning his time,performance, records, whereabouts, or his good name for that matter.
Never said she was a drug cheat. I had questions and issues about the process. Naser was tested multiple times leading up to Doha so I doubt doubt that these fine.
Looking forward to see what she can do this year though, thanks for watching!
@The Final Leg When you say "questions and issues"
Please specify 🙏
Watch your video again or ask a totally random individual to watch it and give you their honest opinion.
There's a lot implied in your words, which may not be your intention, but the implications are there, veiled, but there.
@@FabThePenMan That's understandable and should have clarified for sure. Apologies, no bad intentions at all!
They just dont like naser to win ha ha ha.that is why she is banned.
I was suspicious about that 48.14 the night it happened. Such an extreme drop in PR, plus, to my eyes, there was just something unnatural about seeing a runner put the petal to the medal from start to finish in the 400m. NO ONE does that. There was no pacing, just all-out. I hope she makes all of her tests and stays clean so we have nothing to question.
That's fair but look at Miller-Uibo who ran 48.36 solo in Tokyo. So it's not crazy. We'll see what Naser is able to do this year and next. She's still only 24 so very very young as well
I didn't see pedals to the medal straight thru. I saw she nailed that 2nd turn and a strong finish. She had been working on doing that for 18 months and continued competition with Miller Uibo brought that greatness out.
100% sure this nigerian woman will participate to 2023 asian athletic championship and asian game. shewill steal 200m & 400m womens gold medals from asian women in those games. Sad situation .
Don’t BELIEVE the HYPE every time you hear someone is doping. Yes she deserves to come back. God made it for her to come back. That’s a TALENT the most High gave her. They were wrong for BANDING HER FOR SURE she did nothing WRONG) for that dame long. You a HATER.
There is so much at stake for a clean athlete to miss drugs tests which is why not missing these would be an absolute priority for a coaching team. Under this context, any athlete that misses sufficient tests to get banned is almost certainly doing this to avoid being tested positive. For me it's a closed case, I don't recognise her as the 2019 champion nor do I have her 48.14 time inside the top 10 all time. In fact I think her medal shouldve been stripped and her ban extended. The whereabouts loophole allow athletes like Naser to misbehave at the expense of other athletes.
I do agree to an extent, but, then I also believe I read at the time one of her out of missed season tests was due to the ineptness of the official knocking on a door of a broom cupboard rather than her apartment door in Bahrain.
@@toonyinc4879 If you read the full report from the hearing (65 pages plus) it's absolutely clear that she was deliberately misleading the testers. She gave the address of a house that did not exist! She also said she had messaged her team to file one of the whereabouts but when asked to produce the message she couldn't. For another W/A's she would not answer the door. She should've received a lifetime ban like all those who evade testers.
I hope no disappearance...
If Gatlin was allowed to return then....
Your comments are completely biased and leading. However, you did well in being nice about it. 🤷🏾♂️
Thanks for watching Xavier! How were my comments biased and leading? I definitely didn't want to come off like that. To clarify: I question the process of dismissing one of the whereabouts failures because if the confusion and I also am disappointed in Nasers comment that missing 3 tests are normal. I don't think she ever cheated or was doping or anything. Just questioning the process.
She's an amazing athlete regardless.
She has never failed a drug test and testing people messed up but she is the best
Your right, and I should clarify my questions are with the process and she just happened to get caught up in it. I don't think she ever doped or anything. So she should be back on track and in the hunt for a medal this year

One of the great drug cheats in modern era.
Drug cheat.. please ban them for 10 yrs
Of course . But she did not take drugs! During 2019 she was tested dozens of times and was never positive.
I love good ppl run on the track she is no good . She is not honest
I always doubted the integrity of this woman even before the ban. My conscious always told me she has to be a cheat. Why would someone fail to be available for one hour, four times? Pure character of someone who is not clean.
What’s with the eerie music! Distracting and awful
Thanks for watching!
48 point one four. Don’t say 48 point fourteen. It can’t be a whole number the decimal point
The Drug-test-evader-Naser is back and she is slow, probably showing her true and unenhanced speed.
just run 48.5
Nope she peaked at the right time
@@samanimations2002 "Peaked" "at the right time"
@@hairtoss7975 She had already been tested 20 times in the 2019 world championships and got rested after the 400m final at the games as of recent.
All of those tests have came clean. Her whereabouts ban came due to mismatched communications between both her and then the people of WADA.
I’m willing to give her the benefit of doubt in thinking she’s a huge talent especially over 400m
@@samanimations2002 Riiiiight. 4 consecutive test evasions are "miscommunications". Banned for 2 years for "nothing".
She ran one of the most impressive times in history because she was PED’s. Let’s get real!
Take away the banned drugs and I don't think she can run under 50 seconds.
So these 49s are drugged?
Anybody else noticed that she's about 10 Shades Darker than she was in the world championships in 2019?
