Sydney sprint medallists wed
From correspondents in Raleigh, North Carolina
March 08, 2007
OLYMPIC sprinters Marion Jones and Obadele Thompson were married in a small ceremony in the rural North Carolina town of Wilson’s Mills, the minister who performed the service said today (AEDT).
“It was very homely, very quiet and simple,” the Reverend Vibert Tyrrel told Reuters in a telephone interview. “Nothing elaborate, just a quiet, very small wedding,” added Tyrrel, who said he was related to 30-year-old Thompson and had known the Barbados sprinter for a long time.
His comments were the first about the February 24 ceremony.
“Without a shadow of a doubt it was them,” said Tyrrel of American Jones, triple gold medallist at Sydney 2000, and Thompson, who won 100m bronze at the same Games.
She was previously married to American shot putter CJ Hunter and has a three-year-old son with former 100m world record holder Tim Montgomery.
