McLaughlin shattered the previous mark of 51.41 seconds, which she set at the 2022 USA Outdoor Track and Field Championships in June.
"It's just putting everything that you've done in practice into the race to the point where you're just letting your body do what it does,'' McLaughlin told reporters.
