g foster and r kingdom

Also the U.S. boycott of 1980 prevented Greg from competing.
There was no avoiding Kingdom.

Greg never made the '80 Team that didn't compete in Moscow. Skeets, Dedy Cooper, and Tonie Campbell made the team that wasn't just to put things into context.

I know Greg didn't make the team, just saying that would have been a reason for him :wink:

You're also overlooking that during Kingdom's peak years he only had shot at one WC, not the three that somebody in his position would today.

As in, the years after each of his Oly titles, '85 and '89, were not WC years.

why did kingdom never race in wc's apart from 95?

That's cuz he never qualified. For some reason, he was always injured or otherwise not in top shape in WCh seasons. He only ran 13.51 in 1987, did not race in 1991 and had a best of 13.40 in 1993.
