All-time women's best 200m
9 years 9 months ago
Dafne Schippers' win was the world's ever 4th fastest making her the 3rd fastest women on the planet over a furlong (Flo-Jo has two faster times). Schippers' "come from behind" was truly amazing.
Flo-Jo, 21.34, Seoul, 1988
Flo-Jo, 21.56, Seoul, 1988
Marion Jones, 21.62(Altitude), Joburg, 1998
Dafne Schippers, 21.63, Beijing, 2015

Flo-Jo's record has held for an amazing 27 years

Not to my knowledge but always suspected...passed away at age 39 from an epileptic seizure in her sleep...
I thought ppl were getting bigger stronger faster :dry:
With lower immunity and increased risk of cancers ??...
Flo Jo's 100 and 200 records are the longest standing track records outside of those set by the East Germans...and even if bigger stronger faster people, only Marion Jones (convicted of drug use) has since then come close (within 0,2 s) of those times...
