Michael Johnson’s defence of his 400m title involved four races across the first five days of the championships. After his near world record win at the one-lap event on August 9, the Texan returned the next morning for his 200m heat.
Johnson showed no signs of fatigue in the first two rounds and clocked 20.01 in his semi-final, a 1995 world best. In the final, the American was intent on breaking the oldest of world records: Pietro Mennea’s 19.72 from 1979. Robson da Silva (lane 5) got the quickest start but Johnson, one lane inside, swept past on the second half of the bend and raced clear in the straight. The figures of 19.79 clicked onto the scoreboard as he finished. He swore, then jokingly lay flat on his back on the track. He had completed a double victory which had never been achieved before by a man at world or Olympic level. It was his eighth win in eight races over seven days.
“I’m exhausted. This was a tough, tough job,” said Johnson. “I was almost to the point where I didn’t think I’d be able to perform at my best.”
