Overview by IAAF

There was no clear favourite. then lekseyeva came to everyone’s attention with personal bests in heat and semi-final. The Russian took off quickest in the final. Conversely. US Champion Miles started conservatively and was only sixth at halfway. She improved to third at 300m and took the lead in the finishing straight as Alekseyeva faded. The next best finish came from Kaiser-Brown. who. like Miles. was wearing a pair of oversized sunglasses. Richards came up to pip Alekseyeva for the bronze. The winner’s time was the slowest at world or Olympic level since 1972. yet it was the fastest in the world at that point in 1993. MarieJosé Pérec and Gwen Torrence. arguably the world’s best two 400m runners. both decided to concentrate on the sprints in Stuttgart
