After silver medals in Tokyo and at the Barcelona Olympic Games, Fredericks won his country’s first ever gold medal with a new African record. Just as in 1987, Regis found himself leading a world final at 150m before Fredericks stormed from third to first. Regis’s time at 150m was 14.93, the fastest electrical time for the distance.
Carl Lewis won a record 10th World Championship medal in third spot, when he became the first man to break 20 seconds and not finish in the first two.
