BARCELONA 92 Women's 200m final with Gwen Torrence, Merlene Ottey, Cuthbert and Privalova

I'm laughing at these Jamaicans that think Jamaicans don't dope and are innocent. Everyone one was doped then.

@english2811 The test was no fluke she has been taking drugs since the end of 79, and furthermore... the IAAF, cleared her .. not because the test was incorrect, but because the retesting wasn't completed in COA time limit. IOC stands by the test and always had. This case is the specific reason WADDA was formed. Ottey is a big time DRUG CHEAT... who the hell sets their P.B. at 35 yrs old ???

[jodyclyde]

@karrtt1234 you're comment makes no sense if she had been taking drugs from 79 why would she have set a pb at 35 ?? (she was 36 when she set her 100m pb by the way). you can't have it both ways.

[karrtt1234]

@jodyclyde Better drugs IDIOT you make no sense....and learning how to use them to full effect... drop of you MORON !

[hersi29]

Privalova is a hottie!

[bzach71]

@hersi29 ..your comment is a breath of fresh air........the drugs blame issues is sooooooo stale and tiresome.

I am happy for this upload. This proves that Jamaica has been around in the sprints for years. Listen to Ottey's introduction 2:01 Shes been running since 1980 and before. She ran competitively for Jamaica until the Sydney 2000. She was always cheated out of her gold tho by some doped up opponent. But see, Three Jamaicans in this finals as it is and has been for years

@mrdoitright4girls Oh Please give us a break here.Ottey is no saint either,go to google and see the number of times she tested positive.In 1999 at seville,she had to flew away from the championship for the fear of been caught and in that same year she tested positive 3 times in most meet.Dont come to youtube and make blank and pointless statement.

[chicnoir29]

@MrFlexybee -Merlene only tested positive once.If you don't likeher fine, just don't lie on the woman. She is the queen of Track&Field.

[Prickler32]

Is this the race Torrence was disqualified from? Something about running out of her lane. Does anyone remember?

[AtletismoEu]

@Prickler32 NO!!! She was disqualified in 1995

[Shamar1160]

@Prickler32 She was disqualified in 1995 at the world championship

[Run2live1979]

Gwen will forever be my all time favorite. I can recall meeting her when I was younger in 1994 at the Pan-Africa meet

[lebodiego]

Great race from the queens (Torrence, Ottey, privalova) of track & field

[AtletismoEu]

@lebodiego they are incredible

[spencertrum]

@AtletismoEu There have not been a set of female rivalries as exciting as these three...I loved their races together.

[Ineddiblehulk]

@spencertrum Agree this was a great era, but I reckon the current female sprinters, VCB, Felix, Fraser, Jetter and Stewart are the most exciting since this then. I am enjoying the current rivalries as much as these stars of old. It's been 15+ years, but worth the wait.
