Winner Marion Jones (USA) was disqualified by rule 40.8. Felipa Palacios (COL) is Rightful finalist in place of Jones.
McDonald was the fastest in the first two rounds (22.50 and 22.44), while the doomed Marion Jones looked relaxed and impressive with 22.75 and 22.50 clockings. Jones won her semi-final easily in 22.40 (- 1.4) ahead of Ferguson (22.62). Davis won the other race in friendlier conditions (0.7) in 22.38, from Jayasinghe (22.45).
Jones powered through the curve in the final, and led by 3m into the straight. She gained another metre in the second half of the race to win by 0.44 seconds. Davis just edged Jayasinghe for second by 0.01, while home favourites Gainsford and Freeman were sixth and seventh.
Jones’s margin of victory was similar to America’s previous 100/200 doublers – Griffith-Joyner (0.38) and Wilma Rudolph (0.45), but less than Blankers-Koen (0.7 in 1948). That statistic lost all meaning in 2007 when Jones admitted to doping violations going back to before Sydney. She was swiftly stripped of her title, and in December 2009 the IOC upgraded all the other finalists, meaning that Davies became, in retrospect, her country’s first Olympic Champion in athletics.
