Americans extend medal count to 27 in Rio

RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — Tori Bowie is showing her true colors — bronze, silver and, now, gold.

"This completes my set," the sprinter said after anchoring the U.S. team to the title in the women's 4x100-meter Olympic relay Friday.

She's not the only one covered in medals. The United States heads into the final weekend of the Olympics with 27 medals in track and field, including 10 golds, and a legitimate shot to reach the coveted 30 mark.

Things have fallen the right way for the red, white and blue. Plenty more medals could be on the horizon, too, with Allyson Felix going for her sixth career Olympic gold medal when she runs in the 4x400 relay.
