With tears in her eyes, she dedicated her victory to her late father, whose belief in her potential as an Olympian never wavered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>&#8220;He believed I could be an Olympian. That I can be here,&#8221;<\/em> <strong>said Alfred<\/strong>, after clocking an impressive 10.72 seconds to win the gold, beating out the likes of Sha\u2019Carri Richardson and Melissa Jefferson. <em>&#8220;To come out with the win, happy I was able to do it. I want to attribute it to (my father)&#8230; He\u2019d be so boastful of his daughter being an Olympian.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then, on Tuesday, Alfred continued her remarkable run by earning a silver medal in the Women\u2019s 200m race. She crossed the finish line with a time of 22.08, just behind the USA&#8217;s Gabrielle Thomas, who secured gold with a time of 21.83 seconds. Although Alfred was narrowly denied a second gold medal, her silver finish solidified her status as one of the top athletes in the world and ensured Saint Lucia\u2019s most successful Olympic showing to date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Saint Lucia will leave the Paris Olympics with both a gold and a silver medal, a historic feat that has filled citizens with immense pride. The excitement and joy were palpable at a watch party held at Derek Walcott Square, where fans gathered to support Alfred. While there was some disappointment at missing out on a second gold, the overwhelming sentiment was one of admiration and gratitude for Alfred\u2019s extraordinary efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alfred&#8217;s wins not only represent personal triumphs but also shine a spotlight on the athletes hailing from Small Island Developing States (SIDS), whose communities face some of the most severe impacts of climate change. These athletes exemplify resilience, overcoming environmental and resource challenges to compete at the highest level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-making-history-for-dominica\"><strong>Making History for Dominica<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, in the field events, <a href=\"https:\/\/olympics.com\/en\/paris-2024\/athlete\/thea-lafond_1908333\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Thea LaFond<\/strong><\/a> achieved a historic victory for Dominica, winning gold in the women&#8217;s triple jump.
