Tony Jarrett

Jarrett was disqualified for false starts at both the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney in the first round, and in the semi-finals of the 2001 World Championships, events from which he appeared never to recover.

He was a silver medalist in the 110 metres hurdles at the World Championships in 1993 and 1995, and at the European Championships in 1990, and won the gold medal in the event at the Commonwealth Games in 1990 and 1998.

Jarrett's personal best time for the 110m hurdles is 13.00 seconds, set when he finished as runner-up to Jackson at the 1993 World Championships.

Jarrett came fourth in the 110m hurdles at the 1992 Summer Olympics in Barcelona, missing out on a bronze medal by 1000th of a second to Jack Pierce of the United States. He again narrowly missed out on an Olympic medal when he was a member of the 4 × 100 m sprint relay team that also finished 4th in the Olympic final of that year. Four years earlier in 1988 he finished in 6th place in the 110m hurdles at the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul.

He represented England and won a gold medal as part of the 4 x 100 metres relay team and a silver medal in the 110 metres hurdles, at the 1990 Commonwealth Games in Auckland, New Zealand. Four years later he represented England and won another silver medal, at the 1994 Commonwealth Games in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. He represented England for a third Games and won a gold medal, at the 1998 Commonwealth Games in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. He also made a fourth appearance during the 2002 Manchester Commonwealth Games.
