This lady does not get enough credit for her accomplishments
AGREED
She was behind the East German and Russian, in the relay baton from Flojo...but Evelyn Ashford, ran them down to win Gold Medal....I will never forget that Olympic moment!!!!!
This is still my favorite 4x100 team. What a come back
I will often watch that run down at least 3-4 times a year. She was definitely the real deal.
@@jazzysam9590 yes yes yes baby she was getting it!!!!

The legendary Evelyn Ashford. My fave Evelyn moment, her running down the Russian and East German sprinters to win the 1988 4x100 Olympic gold medal. Iconic moment.
agreed! She tore that track up, even after barely getting her fingers on the baton from FloJo that messy pass.
MINE TOO
Yeah for whatever reason everytime i watch that my eyes start to water up...she was amazing
She was a savage in tht race
@@anniemoss6660 You not the only one, I just watched it, I had to watch it a good 5 times before I could move on.
There should be a movie about Evelyn Ashford.
Yes it should Regina King should play her.
Wilma Randolph, Evelyn Ashford, Shelly-Ann Fraser Pryce, Elaine Thompson and Allison Felix are absolutely the best of all-time
The music to this clip was awesome!!!
Thighs are High, Tom Browne! So appropriate.
The Great Evelyn Ashford
Bravo, Miss Ashford!!! You have undoubtedly earned the Hall of Fame honor. You are an authentic fast sprinter: No "roids'' just pure talent.
She was AWESOME ❤️
Impressive achievements! She's naturally the greatest!
THIS
A True Champion!!
love me some Evelyn Ashford.go girl.
Well deserved, she and Wilma Rudolph are my Track & Fields idols. Congratulations!!!
The first to stop the Eastern Europeans!! A True Champion!!
America’s greatest female sprinter!
Woohoo We are so proud of you Evelyn.You are the best !
Sweet Evelyn. Best sprinter. Love to see her run in 4x100m.
She deserves more recognition and awards
It is appropriate Evelyn Ashford was US Flag bearer. She carried the flag for clean Diaspora athletes for nearly two decades.
My favorite athlete of all time ❤️❤️❤️
CONGRATULATIONS EVELYN!!!!
She is my favourite athlete of all time. She was very special on of the all time greats. She ran 10,76 over nearly 40 years ago, first woman to break 11 secs.
When Evelyn crossed the tape at the 1988 Olympics she did not just beat the favorite European women who were ahead of her but she also crushed the use of steroids by the European Athletes which I believe is still in use today only in different forms to avoid recognition.
IMO, there was somebody on the USA team that was also on steroids.
And we all can guess who that was surely??
It wasn't just the European women doping at that Olympics
@@EverybodyHatesChris77 Exactly. Now, many people wanna pretend that many American athletes were not steroids.
@spanish lessons. Evelyn Ashford wasn't.
Congratulations to Evelyn. That's an awesome tribute video, btw.
Thank you miss Ashford ♥️
I'M PROUD OF YOU FOREVER
I love this woman’s work . Thank you Evelyn !
Love to see her run. Evelyn Ashford was my favorite.
AWESOME!! I loved watching her!
She was a legend!! Hats on and thumbs up to Evelyn Ashford!! Hugs and greetings from Austria 2023
My favorite athlete!!♥️
She Deserves this tribute and so much more.
...the best Sprinter of ALL time.....
💫 She was and will always be one of the very best athletes in the world 🌎
Love this soooooo much!! Oh my goodness, I admired her so much!! She is a treasure!! So proud of her success!!
Love her love her say her name Evelyn Ashford was outstanding
I just love and adore her.she is one of the world's greatest sprinters in history.
Evelyn pulled her quad at the Pepsi Meet in April of 1980, and was out for the rest of the season. Her not being in Moscow, had nothing to due the with boycott. Alice Brown won the Olympic trials, in the 100 meters, with Brenda Morehead 2nd & Chandra Cheeseborough 3rd. Chandra won the 200 meters at the trails.
Awesome & Beautiful !
Very pretty and fast. Wonderful to see her run. Like Bolt says, who's better?
My favorite sprinter, man or woman, just wish she gave more interviews and share some of her philosophy with the young track and field athletes.
Evelyn is a legend!
Probably she is the only true female sprinter who achieved her records without the aid of any drugs.
Not just my favorite female track and field athlete, my fav ever. ❤️ Evelyn Ashford...fearless, guts, and determination. #GOAT
FLO JO IS THE LADY-GOAT. BUT EVELYN ASHFORD IS 2ND FOR SURE.
@ WITH THE BUSINESS 100%. Evelyn didn't die suddenly. So she's the GOAT.
The Queen!!!
Legend!
She was So Awesome on the track!! I always enjoyed watching her run!!!
This was a powerful tribute and well deserved.
Seriously? Ya'll waited till 2016 to induct her? .. woooow!
absolutely natural pure force of Nature
The greatest with Torrence close behind!
FLO JO, EVELYN, THEN TORRANCE.
@with the business 100%. Flo Jo's heart concluded the argument.
@@WITH-THE-BUSINESS. Joyner was a cheater!
Congratulations Evelyn
Simply a spectacular sprinter - always ready to race and a superior competitor.
The best clean sprinter ever.
She was born in Shreveport...woooooooowwwwww..my hometown

Hard to trust times anymore. Her 10.76 was Clean!!!! Not sure anymore...Would have been nice to see her more in the 200 . One of the few who beat Koch..
The GOAT.
Evelyn Ashford!!!!!
Nothing can stop us now, keep trying 😢
Real bad girl ! I seen it all !
💯 💯 💯
This is inaccurate. Evelyn was not the first to run under 11 seconds, thaat was Marlies Gohr
All the Eastern Europeans and Germans were doping huuuuge …. including Marlies Gohr
And Evelyn only won one silver medal-which should have been gold. hmmmmm
Are you sure. I thought when Marlies ran hers it was wind aided and this didn't count.
@@mariushenderson3894 under 11 seconds
She was actually the first woman to run under 10.8
Lucky guy, wish she was mine
Black Girl Magic!
EA > Flo Jo
This bio is inaccurate, when they say it was the US boycott that kept Evelyn from competing at the Moscow Olympics in 1980. She injured her quad muscle very badly in May at the Pepsi Invitation meet, and was out for the rest of the season.
Yeah, but the bigger obstacle is factual; the USA did boycott the Moscow Olympics in 1980.
Also, Evelyn stated herself that the injury at the Pepsi meet was "because she just didn't care anymore" after President Carter pulled the US from the Moscow games just weeks earlier.
She beat the cheaters
dude's voice sounds like the intro from Voltron 🗡️

Allison Felix is great. But Evelyn Ashford is a god.
@ Thomas Thames. Oh yeah. We love Allyson. Another great role model.
Not the mustache.
I love her. Great athlete, but evidently jealous of the greatest runner, Flo Jo, when
she showed poor team spirit by speaking disparaging remarks about Flo in public.
when did she do that, and what did she say?
She wasn’t the only one. And they were telling the truth. Florence had one great year. She was mediocre before that year. And had to retire to avoid failing tests after that year.
@@smoothnubian she testified about drug use to Congress. To Biden, actually. Torrence made the most direct statements about Florence, though. Evelyn subtly and indirectly criticized her for not practicing with the 4x100 team and jeopardizing their chances.
@@marzmarch they all knew florence was dirty. That HGH is what killed her
@ TB PhD. 👍. Cardiomayopathy due to steroid use. Happens all the time in the pro-wrestling scene. It was not just embarrasing but also shameful how Flo Jo had to hide her designer muscles in fancy dress.
Awsome, Shreveport is honered. Evelyn, you were pumping it!!!🕎🕎🕎🕕🕕🕕⚓⚓⚓🌊🌊🌊🔱🔱🔱🤴🤴🤴
