31 seconds.

Maybe Manuel’s confidence grabbed her the victory, she was quoted saying:

“I always think I have a shot,”

“It’s kind of been ingrained in me with [having] my two older brothers and just always wanting to keep up with somebody.”

Last August at the Olympics she became the first ever black woman to win a gold medal in an individual swimming event after tying first place with Canada’s Penny Oleksiak in the 100m freestyle.
