- Gail Devers comes back to win her third hurdles world title, from Nigeria's Glory Alozie and 1996 Olympic Champion Ludmila Engquist of Sweden. 2000 Olympic champion Olga Shishigina of Kazakhstan finished 4th.
The fact that Gail ran both the 100m and 100 hurdles is proof how special an athlete she was. ❤
And didn't just run... WON MULTIPLE GLOBAL TITLES!
114 is man
Devers for LIFE!!!!!
So much mutual admiration and respect between Devers and Engquist. Two great champions.
Devers’ game face at 1:37 - ya’ll bout to get SERVED!
Oh man. Gail was absolutely flying! That mistake at the end robbed her of an even better time. She certainly could have gone 12.30 had she cleared the last hurdle cleanly. She got a terrific start but she was really accelerating and pulling away from the field in the last few hurdles. Outstanding
👍🏿👌🏿
Team Nigeria ♥️
Gail Devers es Leyenda!!
Gail 👍🏿

😢what happened to her?
TheRetroWoman80 she died of cancer last December
Wow what happened to her?
I miss Gloria Alozie
There's a Bulgarian man in this race! Unfair advantage I think
True :D But currently this is standard in women's athletics :/
and he still lose to Devers.
😂
@@9175rockthought it over yup , funky bastard. Just cause u can hang with girls didn't mean you can get what they receive
Intrinsically her best race.. Clipping that last hurdle cut her lead in half and with her flat speed she was always strong on the run-in.. Probably lost out of 12.30 there
N LS In 1992 she would have run an awesome time had she not clipped the hurdle as well
True. I'm a former hurdler. She was by far the best, but lost lots of time in the air over the hurdles for too long (I think she didn't have much choice because of her height), and after the last hurdle, she actually slowed down, rather than accelerate, as do most folks...especially in tight races. Good thing no once was close to her.
She was so far ahead in 1992, that she might have broken the WR hadn't she fallen. Simply an amazing hurdler!
STEVIE586: U AINT TELLING US NOTHING ANYONE WITH COMMON SENSE WOULDNT KNOW....."IF U HIT SOMETHING U SLOW DOWN" . REALLY??????
Well,in hurdle race hitting a hurdle does not necessarily mean slowing down. It depends, just have a look at men's races: they have so much power that sometimes a minor collision doesn't matter at all
Gail Devers was like a bull she had such a good start!
Well, it is the fact that she was such a good flat sprinter may have intervene in her hurdle carier and been a cause of many unsuccessful races. That's because the running technique is totally different in those two disciplines
She could have ran 12.26 with clean end.
But Gail was still the best
Absolutely
That was
Did anyone notice that Gail Devers hit the last hurdle in this final? She gritted it out and won anyway, but if the other women would have been closer, Devers may have not won this final.
Shishigina looks so nervous and very weak whenever she faces off against Devers. Shishigina has lost in head-to-head matches since 1995 at Göteborg. Shishigina didn't even win a bronze medal at this tournament, despite Devers winning.
❤❤❤❤❤🇺🇸🇬🇧🥇🥇
She wouldve got sub 12.30 had she not clipped the hurdle
Funny how Divers clipped and lost n another Olympics
That dude. No woman in that body
number 114 is a woman?? haha back in the days of eastern European roids...
