Toomey Sets Games Record for Consecutive Event Wins
With her final deadlift of 415 pounds in the CrossFit Total on Friday afternoon, Tia-Clair Toomey set yet another record in her journey of becoming the most dominant women’s athlete of all time. With that lift she won her fourth-straight CrossFit Games event breaking a record that she previously shared with Mathew Fraser and Rich Froning.
The streak started at the end of stage 1 of the CrossFit Games. Here’s a look at the four consecutive events:
- Awful Annie – 1st
- 2007 Reload – 1st
- Corn Sack Sprint – 1st
- CrossFit Total – 1st
One big thing: Increasing her dominance even further, Toomey also passed up Froning to take second in all time event wins by any athlete.
- Mat Fraser – 22
- Tia-Clair Toomey – 18
- Rich Froning – 16
- Annie Thorisdottir – 13
- Katrin Davidsdottir – 12
