She kept adjusting her scarf/cap...I feel so sorry for her. :( But hey, she became the first Saudi woman to compete in Olympics. I really hope Saudi society change their attitude towards females.

I feel bad for her. Her own countrymen in Saudi are really angry about the fact that she is even competing.

its a start. saw many several arab women in action in todays 100m heats, the one that impressed was the iraqi athlete - but she ran without a hijab, and looked well at ease.
