The fastest Britain ever, Linford Christie storms across the line to take gold in the 100 metres at the Barcelona Olympics in 1992. In front of a packed Olympic stadium, Christie secured his place in the pantheon of legendary British athletes. The joy on his face is unmistakable, the reward for a lifetime of dedication to his sport.
Linford had already won an Olympic silver medal at Seoul in 1988 and was determined to go one better four years later. The big threat to Linford in '92, however, was one Leroy Burrell. Built like a bulldozer, he had defeated Christie no less than 10 times prior to Barcelona. In the Olympic 100m quarter final Christie got the better of him but Burrell recovered to edge out Christie in the semi-final. Going into the final, the pair were inseparable.
Each athlete told a very different story on the start line on final day: Burrell, edgy and nervous; Christie, extraordinarily focused, hands at sides, staring straight down the track to a point one metre beyond the finishing line. This was Linford's trademark. If any athlete ever won a race before the start it was Christie. At the start gun, Burrell false started. At the second attempt, he was too far out of the race to compete and, with 40 metres remaining, Christie surged ahead and closed out the race.
Linford was the first European to run under the magical 10-second mark and the following year, in 1993, at the Stuggart World Championships, he recorded a personal best of 9.87 seconds, a mere one hundredth of a second outside the World Record. Christie's was an illustrious career and no European has ever run faster.
