Olympic legend Usain Bolt insists that none of the current crop of sprinters have the ‘talent’ to break his 100m record
Before Usain Bolt captivated the world with his unprecedented speed and exuberant personality, Michael Johnson held claim to one of the most breathtaking performances on the track at the Olympic Games.
The lingering effects of the illness sapped Johnson of his strength and impacted his performance in Spain. Just days later, Johnson returned to the track for the 200m. He faced a strong field of sprinters, including Namibia’s Frankie Fredericks, who had triumphed in a battle between the pair just a few weeks beforehand.Johnson poses next to his new world record time of 19.32 seconds in the men's 200m at the Atlanta 1996 OlympicsBut, once again, Johnson's performance was nothing short of spectacular.
Johnson actually suffered a hamstring injury during this remarkable run, ruling him out of the 4x400m and the possibility of a third gold medal.
