Sad news at the Rio Olympics today — fan favorite Michelle Jenneke did not qualify for the 100-meter hurdles event. Jenneke ran a 13.26 in her heat, which was pretty disappointing compared to the 12.93 she ran at the Australian National Championship to qualify for Rio.
After the heat, Jenneke had a brutally honest assessment of her performance:

A brief appearance from Jenneke definitely wasn’t something we were hoping for, but the Australian did come through with one thing: her famous pre-race dance!
