  1. Without the injury, Greene clocks at least a 9.76 here, and possibly as low as 9.74. Who knows, he might have remained thr world record holder until Bolt hit greatness in 2008. And this was into a slight headwind, too. Still irks me that he couldn't run through the line here, would have ran something which seemed scarcely possible back in 2001.

  2. He was definitely in the low 9.7s without the injury. He was FLYING with so much inertia that he limped the final 20 and still won. This was his perfect race.
