America's Allyson Felix looked set to win the 400-meter dash on Monday, but she was edged out of first place thanks to a last minute dive from Bahamian sprinter Shaunae Miller.

星期一，美国队的艾莉森·菲利克斯似乎将赢得400米决赛，然而由于巴哈马短跑选手沙南·米勒在最后一刻使出鱼跃冲线(向前俯冲)，菲利克斯被米勒击败，失去冠军宝座。

After the race, it took Felix nearly an hour before she could confront reporters, as she told them of her extreme disappointment at failing to bring back another gold for Team USA.

赛后，菲利克斯花了近一个小时的时间才能面对记者，因为她说，没有为美国队再拿一金，她非常失望。

However, if there is any consolation prize, it's in the fact that her new silver medal makes her the most decorated female American in Olympic track & field history, ahead of Jackie Joyner-Kersee.

然而，如果有安慰奖的话，那就是她刚斩获的银牌使她超过了杰西·乔伊娜-柯西，成为美国奥运田径史上获奖最多的女选手。

Despite the close call, Miller was the winner because her full torso had crossed the line.

虽然是势均力敌的判定，但米勒还是获得了冠军，因为她整个躯干都穿过了终点线。

Miller led for most of the race, but Felix started to overtake her coming into the last straightaway.
