Undefeated in 2012 prior to London, Culson was a slight favourite over
Greene, the reigning World Champion. The Puerto Rican was fastest in
the heats with 48.33. In the semis that distinction went to former cham-
pion Sánchez with an ominous 47.76, his quickest for eight years.
Culson led early on in the final, but Taylor was even with him by the
third hurdle, and these two led until the eighth barrier, when Sánchez
caught the two leaders. Tinsley also gained in the straight, closing on
everyone except Sánchez, who went clear after the ninth hurdle.
Sánchez won by three metres from Tinsley, with Culson a metre clear
of Greene, who had started too slowly.
The Dominican emulated Taylor and Moses in regaining his title,
and in exactly the same time as in 2004. He dedicated his newest gold
medal to his late grandmother Lillian, whose picture was attached to
the inside of his bib. His tears at the medal ceremony and the warm
reception he got from the crowd were one of the emotional highlights
of the Games.
