Dis is how I define Greatness:
<Merlene Ottey has loads of special records in athletics – some of which might never be broken. Most amazing is probably her (at the time of writing) 67 legal sub-11 runs for the 100 metres (almost doubling second best Marlies Göhr's 34 sub-11s). Also over the double distance (200 metres) she holds she record with 15 runs under 22 seconds. She has run the best ever 100 metre/200 metre double in one day with the times of 10.90 and 21.77 seconds at the Monaco Grand Prix meeting on August 7th 1993. Moreover she had the 8 best 100 metre times in one season (1991) which is a record just as her 6 season best times over 200 metres in 1990.
Her remarkable 57 100 metre finals (from September 1987 to August 1991) and 36 200 metre finals (from 1989 to August 1991) without losses stands out as a unbeatenable mark in the women’s sprint>
Is nuff people win Gold Medal.. including Ottey.. none in the History of Track approach her many feats.
