Australian Paralympic runner Jaryd Clifford said he was "devastated" after being stripped of his bronze medal in the T13 5000-meter final for vision-impaired athletes.

Clifford took to Instagram to share his heartbreak after it was determined that the tether to his guide Matt Clarke was released just shy of the finish line, resulting in disqualification.

He wrote:

“I’m absolutely devastated that we made such a critical mistake out there today."
"Remaining tethered is a fundamental rule in guiding and I’m shattered that I lost my mind in those final metres."
"I felt good, I have so much more to give and I promise I’ll bring everything I’ve got for the 1500m on Tuesday."

Clifford then thanked all of his fans and loved ones for their outpouring of support.

"I’m feeling so much love, I’ve got a great team of people around me."
"Sport can be a cruel beast at times, but the tough times are what make the good times so great."

The three-time Paralympic medalist finished his post by expressing his gratitude for his guides Tim Logan, who ran with him the first 2000 meters, and Clarke.

"Couldn’t be prouder to have worn the Australian singlet alongside my best mates @timlogann and @mattiiclarke ❤️"

Unfortunately, Clifford barely missed out on a bronze yet again on Tuesday, coming in fourth by just .01 of a second in the 1500-meter final.

Clifford previously took home two silvers and a bronze from Tokyo and broke the world record for the T12 1500-meter event in 2021.

After the 1500, he told reporters:

“It’s almost so ridiculous that it’s funny."
“I get DQ’d in the last meter and [miss bronze again by] 0.01. It’s crazy that it’s three years of work and the last meter of both races can define all of that."
"It’s pretty brutal."

We're just gutted for him, but we're glad he's taking it all in stride.

Awkward Typo In Elon Musk's Bizarre 'Education Department' Trump Meme Is A Total Self-Own

Billionaire Elon Musk was widely mocked after he celebrated President Donald Trump's executive order to begin to dismantle the Department of Education (DOE) by posting a meme of Trump at the department's grave, only for an awkward misspelling to get all the attention.

Polling indicates that eliminating the Education Department is largely unpopular, with 60% of registered voters opposing the move, according to a Quinnipiac University survey conducted March 6-10. Support stands at 33%, with opposition particularly strong among Democrats—98% oppose it, while just 1% support it.
