Force’s run was recorded at 4.837 seconds. “I’m just happy to win an event. That was the main thing. Being a female, that’s exciting for the record books and everything, but my team, we just wanted to get our first win,” said Force. “To get it finally done here in Atlanta, we’re just a little bit relieved but so excited as well.”
