The first round saw no-one run faster than 14.1. On the next day, in the wet and cold (14°C), Mikhailov won the first semi in 13.9w, with Willie Davenport the US Trials winner back in seventh, impeded by an injured thigh. Lindgren won the other semi-final, also in 13.9, with Jones easing through in 14.0, and Ottoz the slowest qualifier for the final with 14.1 (14.12). As in the three previous finals, the gold was won at the start. Jones, reputed to be the fastest starter in the world, was almost a metre clear at the first hurdle. Lindgren closed all the way, and was fractionally ahead coming off the last hurdle. But Jones’s speed (9.4 for 100y) was too much for Lindgren, who lost a little ground by leaning for the line too early. Behind him Mikhailov and Ottoz closed rapidly, with the Italian – for once without his trademark sunglasses – finishing fastest of all for fourth, a metre behind Lindgren. For Jones, it was the final outdoor race of his career.
