SAINT-DENIS, France (AP) — Sam Kendricks appreciates the Olympics again. Valarie Allman never stopped.
It’s just the healing power that medals have to mend and reinforce feelings. In a short span Monday night, Allman won her second straight Olympic title in the discus, while Kendricks captured silver in a pole vault competition that featured Sweden’s Mondo Duplantis breaking his own world record.
The medals from Allman and Kendricks gave the U.S. 11 so far in the meet, including three golds.
Three years ago in Tokyo, Kendricks didn’t get the chance to compete. He was placed in isolation because of a positive COVID-19 test and didn’t feel all that supported. It led to some pretty hard feelings.
