Description

He might have won the gold medal and set a world record at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, but former Canadian sprinter Donovan Bailey is far from happy with his performance on that day. Bailey, one of the most prominent sprinters from Canada post the Ben Johnson era, had set a then world record of 9.84 seconds on his way to Olympic gold. But the Jamaica-born athlete to this day feels that he could have touched 9.71 seconds if he had run a perfect race.
