USA Women Defeat France 67-66 For Eighth Straight Gold Medal

The French word for "miracle" would have translated to "disaster" for the U.S. women's basketball team on Sunday.

But the Americans' eighth consecutive gold medal will be a memorable one because the virtually unbeatable global power won, literally, by inches.

The U.S. survived a serious and stunning test from France by a 67-66 margin, and only because Gabby Williams' heave at the buzzer that banked in, a possible shot for the ages, was taken with her foot on the 3-point line, denying the home team a chance at overtime.
