shirvo got unlucky, in 98’s CWG; KL’s track was horrible if i recall it was a tartan track, put a mondo track in and that 10.03 would’ve been sub 10, kill the headwind and that would’ve been sub 10. he’s still gotta fix his running form especially his starting form. If he fixed that he may pull it off…but age is catching up.
of course if those things were in place Ato may have broken 9.84 in KL concurrently. but you’d have to blame ato for not breaking the world record back then…he celebrated early
