Veronica Campbell-Brown
JAMAICA(牙買加), 100M AND 200M
JAMAICA(牙買加), 100M AND 200M
來自牙買加的黑珍珠,Campbell承續牙買加傑出的短跑傳統,成為世界短跑女王。2004年雅典奧運,Campbell贏得女子200公尺及400接力兩面金牌;2007年世界田徑錦標賽,她在100公尺奪金,200公尺摘銀。2008年北京奧運,Campbell被看好可以在100公尺、200公尺、及400接力獲得三面獎牌。
Campbell-Brown broke new ground for women athletes in the Caribbean by accumulating the full set of individual global titles with gold medals at youth, junior, senior and Olympic level. She completed the set at the world championships in Osaka last year when she prevailed in the closest ever sprint final - the first six athletes were separated by just seven one-hundredths of a second. Later in the week Campbell-Brown picked up silver in the final of the 200m. The most significant achievement of her career came at the Athens 2004 Olympic Games when she won the 200m title ahead of American rival (and adidas team-mate) Allyson Felix. It was the first time a woman from the Caribbean had ever won an Olympic sprint title.
