So the rules have allowed 9.766 to be rounded to 9.7 so ASAFA still ranked number 1 then .Along with Gatlin.

The IAAF has just been informed by Tissot Timing of an error in the reading of the result recorded by Justin Gatlin (USA) in the 100m at the IAAF Super Grand Prix Meeting in Doha, Qatar on Friday 12 May 2006.
Based on his time recorded after winning the race, Gatlin ran 9.766 seconds for 100m, which was then announced as 9.76 - a new World Record for this distance.

look at the patience that I'm demonstratin'
After a week or two I usually start eliminatin'
But we got thru the convo on the phone
Now we finally chillin' in the condo all alone
I tried to be the expressive, without bein' aggressive
Just bein suggestive, a lil more impressive
So the rules have allowed 9.766 to be rounded to 9.7 so ASAFA still ranked number 1 then .Along with Gatlin.

The good news for Gatlin is that he is a record holder...on the other hand he has to share it with ASAFA![]()
It's better to Try and Fail than Fail to Try
a good fi him, him did too hype and he's manager did hype up to,bout he can meet asafa, anywhere, anytime.Suppose feel like a real clown now.
I wonder what some of you guys would have been saying if the IAAF had readjusted Asafa's time like that? In that case it would have been a conspiracy right? Why the mean remarks? I have never heard of Gatlin badmouthing Mr. Powell. If anyone else had ran and thought they had beaten the world record they would have been hyped and excited too. Mr. Gatlin is still in tip top shape as far as I gather, so dont write him out of the race yet. I am sure Mr. Powell is not letting this timing error get to his head. A good athlete knows he still has to go out there and run a good race regardless.
Money can't buy happiness, but it will buy the type of misery one can enjoy.
LOL...icu, u too idle. LOVE THE PIK.![]()
