Forgotten White Athletes?

[white is right]

I had the pleasure of being there that day.
Light rain and a blustery wind (the track is very close to the coast) which gave us that +4.2 wind in the final. What a shame because 20 year old Tim really looked our first sub 10 possibility here in 1989. Beautiful sprinter!
They had him kicking that leg out in front a la FloJo before grounding to claw back more powerfully but in the end his knees starting getting hurt. His legal best never passed 10.26 in Tonsberg although he was a great 2nd leg runner in our then world number 8 ever (time 38.17) 4x100 team in 1995.

Maybe because he disappeared similar to Kaiser Sose I had never heard of him as I recall all of the various world class male Australian sprinters from the Moscow Olympics to this season.

Since the sport is only a semi pro sport for all but the elite super stars the sport will lose competitors due to economics from first world countries much easier than countries in Africa...
