Gone with the wind

Article Abstract:

The women's sprint races featured impressive performances by Gwen Torrence and Gail Devers in the 100-meter race. The 200-meter race featured the top-three times in the world for 1996, but the 400-meter race was seen as a failure because none of the times figure to be good enough to win gold.
