Kristi Overton Johnson has held that record for so long i hate to see her loose it because she can not come back and defend it but it shows how long it has been since a woman has reached that length in years in a tournament , but it also shows room for the record to be broken which would be so cool because seeing women get that far on the short line is so cool and great for the sport
