With this, the athlete took more than six tenths of a second off her personal best that she had run in Romania last year (50.37). That time was also a Dutch record for a while, but Lieke Klaver went into hiding there last month at the World Cup in Eugene. After 50.24 in the series, Klaver clocked 50.18 in the semifinals. The 23-year-old Klaver just missed the medals (fourth) in the final battle with 50.33.
