Netherlands' Femke Bol stuns the U.S. in final seconds of 4x400m mixed relay to win gold

Better luck next time, Americans.

Look, we understand there’s a lot to keep track of this weekend at the Summer Olympics in Paris, France.

Ryan Crouser remained the king of shot put, Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce somehow missed the start of the 100m semifinal run, Imane Khelif has a lot of folks talking, and swimmer Henrik Christiansen has become a TikTok star in the Olympic village as the unofficial Muffin Man.

But you have to watch this finish in the 4×400 mixed relay final, where Femke Bol of the Netherlands rallied from as far back as fourth place to snatch the gold medal away from the Americans.

Check it out:

And fans loved watching Bol stun the rest of the field.

Femke Bol, one of the best 400 runners in the world, just cooked on the final 200 and snatched the gold from America.

And, perhaps, she just made the rest of the world take the gloves off and put their best in the mixed relays

This is the second medal that Bol has won in Olympic competition. At the 2021 Summer Games in Tokyo, the 24-year-old captured the bronze in the 400m hurdles.

It’s also worth noting that this is just the second time the 4x400m mixed relay has been part of the Olympics. Poland took the gold medal at the games in Tokyo.
