Davies swam a blinder, she was beaten by drugs and nothing else. If Davies had been on the same drug programme she would have crushed everyone. Robbed of a gold medal that really should have been handed to her by now. Thank you Sharron for your continued efforts to keep women's sport for women and not blokes in women's swimming costumes.
Actually Sonya Dangalakova, who came in 6th place, is the rightful Olympic bronze medalist. 4th and 5th are filthy cheating East Germans also. Since there were a total of 3 scum East Germans in this race, that also means that Christel Fechner of Belgium, Ann-Sofi Roos of Sweden and Lisa Curry of Australia were robbed of their chance to compete in a Olympic final forever. 44 years and the IOC have still not put this right. Absolute disgrace. Without fairness in sport, we don't have sport.
It’s hard to understand Sharon Davis going on about being cheated for years until you watch the race, I think Petra was also cheated because she probably could have won anyway regardless of the peds that she has admitted to taking at the time who knows No winner at the end of the day.

They really should bump up the silver, bronze and 4th place swimmers.

Very good 1980 Moscow Olympics classic!
6half seconds tore off the world record time..
Wonder how there weren't many wonderers back then
Petra looks completely robotic in her strokes. Like an over-caffeinated windup toy. Such a travesty.

Looking back you see how bad that commy in sports was..
