At the 2012 London Olympics, Drummond was the relay coach for the U.S. Track Team. The men's 4x100 metres relay team equalled the existing world record in the Olympics, though were defeated by a new world record by Jamaica. The women's team won and crushed the world record. In an event where improvements are normally recorded in hundredths of a second, the team knocked more than a half a second off the record that had stood for more than a quarter of a century.
