Another "overtime" finish.
Big story: would the leaders run out of "gas"?
Bubba was said to have been in serious situation, at huge risk of not finishing, likely to run out of fuel on last lap.
In fact, Bubba finished.
And finished first.

Why Was This Not A Front-Page Story In TWSJ?
More from TWSJ link:
Every year, a few hundred elite high-school students from all over the planet gather at the International Mathematical Olympiad. This year, those brilliant minds were joined by Google DeepMind and other companies in the business of artificial intelligence. They had all come for one of the ultimate tests of reasoning, logic and creativity.
The famously grueling IMO exam is held over two days and gives students three increasingly difficult problems a day and more than four hours to solve them. The questions span algebra, geometry, number theory and combinatorics—and you can forget about answering them if you’re not a math whiz. You’ll give your brain a workout just trying to understand them.
Because those problems are both complex and unconventional, the annual math test has become a useful benchmark for measuring AI progress from one year to the next. In this age of rapid development, the leading research labs dreamed of a day their systems would be powerful enough to meet the standard for an IMO gold medal, which became the AI equivalent of a four-minute mile.
But nobody knew when they would reach that milestone or if they ever would—until now.
