Yes, you're listening to "No Woman, no cry!" - and of course, the voice belongs to another immortal Jamaican: Bob Marley! Sorry folks, I wrote this for the very few of you who didn't know them!

The real winner of tonight's (August 11, 2000) female 100 m race at the exceptional Weltklasse GP Meeting in Zürich, Switzerland is Merlene Ottey.

She made her come back in great style and returned to where she belongs - among elite sprinters.

If there were medals delivered tonight, Merlene would have again been there, shoulder to shoulder with Marion Jones and Inger Miller.

Only a fortnight ago there were very few who believed in such a comeback of "The Queen"

Na tiskovni konferenci 5. julija 2000 je Merlene Ottey dobesedno žarela od ponosa in zadovoljstva - povsem upravičeno, kajti ta večer je objavila svojo veličastno in nadvse pomembno zmago nad togo birokracijo IAAF
