LONDON - Bronze in Wednesday's 400m proved bittersweet consolation for US track legend Allyson Felix as she equaled the 14 world championship medals won by Jamaicans Merlene Ottey and Usain Bolt.
Felix has also bagged an incredible nine Olympic medals, including six gold. Of her 14 world medals, nine are gold, while 12 were won as part of the US relay team.
Bolt, in his final season, can move to 15 with a medal in the 4x100m relay this weekend, but Felix is slated to run both the 4x100 and 4x400m relays for the US team, which could take her to 16.
