It's a Wrap! Reviewing the 1997 Outdoor Season
Abstract
Description
The 100m world rankings of the 1997 outdoor track and field competition season are reviewed, subject to corrections for wind effects and atmospheric drag. The rankings and times are compared with those of 1996, and the improvements of each athlete over the course of a year are discussed. Additionally, the athletes' wind-corrected 50m and 60m splits from the 1997 IAAF World Championships are compared to the 1997 indoor world rankings over the same distances, as an attempt to predict possible performances for the coming 1998 indoor season.
