10-second barrier

100-meter sprint milestone September 2020 thumb|right|Asafa Powell broke the 10-second barrier more often than any other sprinter in the history of track and field—97 times The 10-second barrier is the physical and psychological barrier of completing the 100-meter sprint in under ten seconds. The achievement is traditionally regarded as the hallmark of a world-class male sprinter. Its significance has become less important since the late 1990s, as an increasing number of runners have surpassed the ten seconds mark.Gardener, Jason. (9 August 2008).

Some races also had an unofficial FAT, or semi-automatic time, often in conjunction with photo finish equipment.

At the 1968 USA Outdoor Track and Field Championships at Charles C.

By 1976, six other men had equalled the 9.9 hand-timed record, though none of their performances had an FAT mark. Automatic timing thumb|right|Jim Hines was the first man to officially break the 10-second barrier After the 1977 rule change, Jim Hines' nine-year-old 9.95 was the only recognised sub-10-second race. That year the barrier was broken again, when Silvio Leonard ran 9.98 seconds on 11 August 1977. Both of these marks were recorded at a high altitude, which aids performance due to lower air resistance.Note7 7 7 Carl Lewis was the first sprinter to break ten seconds at low altitude under electronic timing, with 9.97 seconds at the Modesto Relays on 14 May 1983. Calvin Smith recorded a world record of 9.93 seconds in Colorado Springs, Colorado on 3 July 1983, at altitude, and became the first sprinter to run under ten seconds twice, in August that year. In total, six sprinters legally broke the barrier during the 1980s. Another, Ben Johnson, had eclipsed both the 9.90 mark in 1987 and the 9.80 mark in 1988, respectively with 9.83 seconds and 9.79 seconds; however, both of these records were rescinded after he tested positive for, and later admitted to, using doping, namely steroids. The 100 metres final at the 1991 World Championships represented a new zenith in the event: six athletes ran under ten seconds in the same race, and winner Carl Lewis lowered the world record to 9.86 seconds.World Championships: A History.

In fourth place, breaking his own European record of 9.97 seconds, was Linford Christie with a time of 9.92 seconds. Maurice Greene, in 1999, was the first athlete to run under 9.80. Usain Bolt surpassed 9.70 in 2008, and 9.60 in 2009. The men's 100 metres final at the 2012 Summer Olympics saw a new Olympic record and seven out of eight finalists running under 10 seconds. However Tyson Gay, was later disqualified from this race. Prior to his disqualification, he had been in fourth place with a time of 9.80 seconds, the fastest fourth place in history. On 29 May 2016, former World Champion Kim Collins improved his personal best by running 9.93 seconds in Bottrop as a 40-year-old. He improved his own standing as the oldest man to break the 10-second barrier, the first over the age of 40.

Note2 2 2 The time with which the athlete first broke the barrier without wind assistance. Note3 3 3 The age at which the athlete first broke the barrier without wind assistance. Note4 4 4 The country for which the athlete competed internationally at the time he first broke the barrier without wind assistance. Note5 5 5 The continental athletic association governing the country for which the athlete competed internationally when he first broke the barrier without wind assistance. Note6 6 6 The career personal best time achieved by the athlete without wind assistance. Note7 7 7 Denotes a run achieved at a high altitude. Note8 8 8 Canadian sprinter Ben Johnson was the sixth runner to achieve the feat (having recorded multiple finishes under ten seconds), some of the runs were rescinded after Johnson admitted to using steroids between 1981 and 1988. But his 9.95, with which he first broke the barrier, is valid and could be found on the website of World Athletics. Note9 9 9 British sprinter Mark Lewis-Francis recorded a time of 9.97 seconds during the 2001 World Championships quarter-finals on 4 August 2001 (aged 1982 09 04 2001 08 04) but the wind gauge malfunctioned, invalidating the run.

The following sprinters all received a hand-timed mark of 9.9 seconds. All the runners held the world record simultaneously. However, the timing may not have been precise. (Note that Bob Hayes clocked a hand timed 9.9 seconds in the 1964 Olympic final, but his FAT 10.06 was the official time, and it was given as “10.0”) + Sprinters who have broken the 10-second barrier without wind assistance and with manual timingDate first brokenAthleteCountryNo. of times broken001 20 June 1968Hines Jim Hineshttps://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2008/08/16/sports/olympics/20080816_world_records.html A History of World Records - Interactive Graphic The New York Times 16 August 2008 3 September 2008 https://web.archive.org/web/20080902223034/http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2008/08/16/sports/olympics/20080816_world_records.html 2 September 2008 2002 20 June 1968Ronnie Ray Smith1003 20 June 1968Charles Greene Charles Greene (athlete)1004 21 June 1972Steve Williams Steve Williams (athlete)4005 1 July 1972Eddie Hart Eddie Hart (athlete)1006 1 July 1972Rey Robinson1007 5 June 1975Silvio Leonard1008 3 April 1976Harvey Glance2009 22 May 1976Don Quarrie1 See also Four-minute mile Two-hour marathon Notes note References General 100 Metres All Time.
