Ottey labors to 12.03 last-place finish in Ostrava
Merlene Ottey not running sub-12 for 100? Unthinkable! Funny how we apply world-class standards to a woman 47 years old. In any case, Merlene took last yesterday at an IAAF Golden Spike meet in Ostrava, Czech Republic, clocking 12.03 seconds, probably her slowest time since grade school. On the bright side, she now has 2 points in the World Athletics Tour prize race. (She’s tied for 61st among sprinters, though.)
