Three years later in Osaka, she won the 100m in what was one of the closest sprint finals in World Championships history. She added to her medal haul by taking silver in the 200m and 4x100m.
Campbell-Brown successfully defended her 200m title at the Beijing Games in 2008, becoming just the second woman in Olympic history to win back-to-back gold medals in the event.
During the peak of her career, Campbell-Brown’s biggest rival was Allyson Felix. The US sprinter had won the world 200m titles in 2005 and 2007, while Campbell-Brown beat Felix to the Olympic crowns in 2004 and 2008.
Felix got the better of Campbell-Brown again at the 2009 World Championships, but the Jamaican gained revenge two years later in Daegu, winning her first world title over 200m. Having also won the world indoor 60m title in 2010, it meant that Campbell-Brown became the first woman in history to win world titles over 60m, 100m and 200m.
