==Dominique Blake==

... that Jamaican sprinter Dominique Blake was accidentally awarded a bronze medal at the 2012 Summer Olympics in the women's 4x400 event? Source: "Dominique Blake handed over the 4x400m relay medal she was erroneously presented with, having never competed in the heats or the final of the event at the 2012 Olympics."

|comments = Nominated 6 November 2017, created 1 November 2017. Prose 1517 characters long, start class. Sourced and neutral. 2.9% via Earwig's Copyvio Detector; likely plagiarism free. The hook is cited, though the source doesn't specifically mention "Summer" Olympics (though it is implied). The hook is interesting; who would've thought that this kind of thing ever happens? Hook is 133 characters, which is less than the 200 maximum. No picture is used. No QPQ is needed, as this is MrLinkinPark333's first DYK nomination. Provided minor edit of hook to remove ellipses before question mark and wikified "2012 Summer Olympics." Could consider changing "event" to "relay." Approved.
