Misty May-Treanor And Kerri Walsh Win Gold Again, Unbeaten In 108 Straight Matches
Like There Was Ever Any Doubt
8/21/08
Misty May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh completed this morning in Beijing what everyone expected them to do, win gold in women's beach volleyball for the second consecutive Olympic Games.
It wasn't easy, as Treanor and Walsh had to do it in the rain and go against the last duo to actually beat them, China's Wang Jie and Tian Jia, but they won in straight sets 21-18, 21-18.
By the way, if you're wondering when that that loss to Jie and Jia happened, it was back in June of 2007.
This means that Treanor and Walsh have now won an absurd 108 matches straight in both international and Olympic play. I honestly can't think of a run as dominant as that in professional sports history. I'm sure something comes close, but whatever, what Treanor and Walsh have done in nothing short of remarkable.
The one unfortunate thing - if you like seeing them dominate - is that both women apparently have said they want to start families after the Games, so their streak might actually come to an end because of pregnancy, rather than an actual loss.
Either way, they've already cemented their legacy as by far the greatest women's beach volleyball in history. And it'll be a long, long time before anyone ever comes close to breaking their consecutive game win streak.
