Johnson strikes gold in Berlin
September 4, 2001

With his win Friday in the 110m hurdles at the ISTAF '01 Golden League Grand Prix in Berlin, 1996 Olympic gold medalist Allen Johnson secured a share of the IAAF Golden League Jackpot of 50 kilos of gold.

A three-time world outdoor champ (1995, '97, '01), Johnson earned his share of the Golden League Jackpot by winning the 110m hurdles in 13.04 seconds (+1.0 meters per second). Anier Garcia of Cuba was second in 13.15, followed by Americans Dominique Arnold (3rd-13.21) and Mark Crear (4th-13.42).

Johnson's effort on Friday equals his seasonal best performance. He also ran 13.04 in winning the gold medal at 2001 IAAF World Outdoor Championships earlier this month in Edmonton, Canada. This marks the first time during his career that he has won a share of the Jackpot.

Johnson will split the Golden League Jackpot with fellow- American Marion Jones (100m), Romanian Violeta Szekely-Beclea (1,500m), Switzerland's Andre Bucher (800m), Morocco's Hicham El Guerrouj (2,000m) and Russian Olga Yegorova (5,000m).

The IAAF Golden League is comprised of seven events. To win a share of the Jackpot, athletes must win their event at five of the Golden League meets. The Jackpot is divided evenly among the winners. The concept was created to unify the elite individual meets in Europe.

In other events at Berlin, Kelli White, who grabbed the 200m bronze medal in Edmonton, along with a gold medal in the 4x100m relay, finished third in the women's 100m in 11.25 (+0.5 mps). Suziann Reid was second in the women's 400 meters in 51.66 and Paul McMullen was eighth in the men's 800m in 1:45.71.

Two-time Olympian Amy Acuff was second in the women's high jump with a clearance of 1.93 meters/6 feet, 4 inches, and Mary Sauer was fifth in the women's pole vault with a jump of 4.16/13-7.75.

In relay action, five-time Olympic gold medalist Michael Johnson ran on a U.S. 4x200-meter team that included Jerome Davis, Leonard Byrd and Derrick Brew. The U.S. squad won the event in 1:21.45.
