| Sarah Attar finishing the race |
It would be in record that Sarah Attar is the first Saudi track athlete to compete in the Olympic Games.
Though she finished few seconds behind fellow competitors in the heat, she was given a standing ovation as she crossed the finish line.
Speaking after the race, she said: 'It is such an honour to be representing Saudi Arabia. Hopefully this can make such a huge difference.
'It was such a unique opportunity [to represent Saudi Arabia], they invited me and welcomed me and to make that first step for women is just the most amazing feeling ever.' Whao!
