Eugene 08: Gay Almost Blows Chance in 100

Tyson GayEUGENE, OREGON – Tyson Gay ran an excellent 90 meter race.

Too bad he was competing in the 100 meters.

The athlete with the best shot of taking home gold for the United States in the 100 meters this summer almost didn’t qualify after accidentally easing up during the prelims.

His excuse?

“I’m OK,” he said. “I just misjudged the white line.”

“Misjudged.”

Suuuuure.

Gay finished tied for fourth in his heat with a time of 10.14 and qualified for Saturday’s quarterfinals.

Walter Dix from Florida State ran he fastest qualifying time with a 9.96 and was the only runner with a sub-10.00 time.

For America’s sake, let’s hope Gay doesn’t “misjudge” the white line in the quarterfinals.
