Between 1912 and 2000 the USA had lost the Olympic 4x100 5 times out of 20 Olympics.

When other teams won, Armin Hary, Donovan Bailey, Usain Bolt 3x and Marcell Jacobs

Since Mel Sheppard won in 1908, Americans have been frustrated by the Olympic 1500. Generations of American heroes in the Mile; Abel Kiviat-set world record before Olympics, took silver, Joie Ray-world record holder finished 8th, Glenn Cunningham-4th, set world record after, Bob McMillen-silver, missed gold by half a meter, Don Bowden-11th in heats, , Jim Beatty, Dyrol Burleson, Jim Grelle, Tom O'Hara, Jim Ryun-held the world record for the mile for 8 years during which he got a silver at high altitude Mexico City and was tripped in the semi-final in Munich, Marty Liquori , Dave Wottle, Steve Scott, Jim Spivey, Joe Falcon, Terrance Herrington, Alan Webb and Bernard Lagat had high expectations but for some reason, didn't cross the finish line first. Some didn't even get to the start line. That streak was broken in 2016 by Matt Centrowitz
