The track and field portion of the Paris Olympics began on Friday with a number of events, including the first round of the women's100-meter sprint. There was a scary moment during the very first heat of the day as South Sudan's Lucia Moris collapsed approximately 70 meters into the race.
As Moris lay on the ground screaming in pain from a leg injury, Laos's Silina Pha Aphay, who had run a 12.45 and finished in sixth place in the heat, ran back to check on her. Pha Aphay signaled to medical professionals and remained with Moris until they took her opponent away on a stretcher.
