I just want to start a topic about a Greek female high jumper who was a huge surprise in both the 1996 European Championship in Stockholm and 1996 Summer Olympic Games in Atlanta. Both times she won silver medals in the women's high jump. She also won 3 gold in a not so major event (Balkan Cup) and 2 bronze and a silver in the Mediterranean Games. I recall watching the 1996 Atlanta game where she broke a national record with a score of 2.03 m. She battled with the world record holder from Bulgaria Stefka Konstadinova. Incredible for an athlete who is only 5'7". She was also in the Guinness Records for being the shortest female high jumper to pass 2.03 m (30 cm). It might have been one of the most memorable Olympic event 20 years ago. Thank you Niki!!! :)

So are you saying that Voula Patoulidiou doped?

I hope in this thread people will not root for Cyprus since they are playing against Greece. I understand we have Greek-Cypriots in this forum. But, we don't want Greece to drop points to a country who doesn't have a chance to qualify.

We just need to pray Belgium or even Bosnia are not in top form when Greece face them later.
