Bershawn Jackson (Bronze), Angelo Taylor (Gold), Kerron Clement (Silver)
I watch the NBC broadcast of 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing last night and I can't believe that US men sweep 400m hurdles in the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Angelo Taylor, 29 year old became the first 400-meter hurdler since Edwin Moses to win gold medals eight years apart Monday. He led the first sweep of the event since the U.S. did it in 1960 and lifted sagging American fortunes after a disappointing start to their Beijing Olympics. Gold medalist Angelo Taylor (center) of the United States and his compatriots, silver winner Kerron Clement (left), and bronze winner Bershawn Jackson (right) celebrate with national flags after winning the men's 400-meter hurdles final. Way to go!
