Jackson (13.36) and Vander-Kuyp (13.32w) were the fastest in round 1.
Crear ran the fastest ever quarter-final with 13.14. Two-time finalist
Jarrett had a desperate time, falling after cramping and accidentally
hindering Germany’s Eric Kaiser, which resulted in the Briton’s dis-
qualification. Reigning champion McKoy, now running for Austria,
went out with 13.64 in a heat won by Jackson in 13.33, while race
favourite Johnson won the final heat in 13.27.
Johnson returned the next day to win the first semi-final in 13.10,
despite a sluggish reaction time (0.194), with Jackson (13.17) and Valle
(13.18) impressive behind him. In the other semi, 13.26 was necessary
to make the final, with Schwarthoff very impressive in running 13.13,
while Crear duplicated Johnson’s reaction time and struggled to run
13.22 behind Swift (13.21). Crear matched Johnson in the final until
the fourth hurdle, when the US Trials winner (in a US record 12.92)
drew clear to win in 12.95. Crear finished a metre clear of Schwarthoff,
Jackson and Valle.
