- The heavy favorite was East German Kristin Otto, the reigning World and European champion, and the world record holder. She was looking for a Spitz-like performance in Seoul, aiming for six gold medals, and her first race was the 100 freestyle. Swimming World noted that this race was the first time in 12 years that all the world’s top swimmers had gathered at the Olympics. Otto was expected to be challenged by Americans Dara Torres, winner of the 1987 Pan Pacs and 1988 world leader with 55.30, and Mitzi Kremer, ranked third in the world in 1988. But they were non-factors, as Kremer did not make the final, and Torres would finish only seventh.
In the final, Otto was challenged by China’s surprising Zhuang Yong, who had been ranked only 12th in the world in 1987 and was only ninth in 1988 coming into the Olympics. Otto won easily, Zhuang setting a PR of 55.50 for the silver, the first Olympic medal won by a Chinese swimmer. France’s Catherine Plewinski was another surprise, winning the bronze medal, although she even admitted she did not think she could qualify for the A final. She had never medaled at an international meet before.

Its interesting they did the profile of Sylvia Poll. She did win silver in the 200 behind Heike Friedrich, but it was Poll's sister Claudia who won gold in the 200 free at the Atlanta Games.
Doped to her gills.
Otto now sports a full beard and sings baritone in the local choir
ps5 legend of 88 Seoul olympics coming soon

Much respect to a juiced-up cheater?
So, what's Kristin Otto doing these days?
Why did they make the Olympics in South Korea so early? I was not born at that time😭😭
They applied for it ya goose
Did OIC conducted any drug test for this event?
Yes, the International Olympic Committee was conducting random drug testing. They also upheld the disqualification of USA sprinter Angel Myers who failed a drug test prior to her arrival in Seoul.
Marimar Zambrano They were juiced at least the Chinese and East Getmans.
So Silvia should have gotten a silver medal. So sad
They should test all the frozen samples from the past! Testing is way more advanced now! Therell be a lot of gold medals handed back ! Lol
Yes very true , a lot of Americans would be in that number
