Love Caster. Hope she smashes it at the 2012 Olympics here in UK. She deserves it and I am behind her. Bad luck to her in this race. She is quality though, and has achieved more than all her haters ever will.

that 's true mandela195, but there are so many ignorant and stupid people, not everybody can be intelligent, just a pity they have a voice.

people like to look at the negative to make themselves feell better.

caster deserves to be there and she will win in the olympics when she comes to london, i will support her when she come to my country britain next year.

@chinarocks2 its funny how you can say someone is something with out having enough knowledge about them...your so into paying attention to the negatives that you let the truth slide right by..be a shamed of yourself for speaking out of term...if you pay attention to all events there as been one talented person to stand out that is very young..David Rudisha, Usain bolt,and now caster..other then these three and a few others everyone else is just too OLD and need to move away from the sport..

Caster and Mariya's voice has the same pitch! Lol

[tzouse]

Clearly Semenya let her win, oh please!!!!!!!

This is not fair. A man allowed to race against women. Fortunately, there was one woman faster than the man.
