That TNFN link is interesting.
Here is their list of World Records:
http://trackandfieldnews.com/index.php/records/30-records/278-womens-outdoor-world-recordsThey still doubt Flojo's 10.49 here, but list the Chinese women's records.
And this is coming form the same source.
I think the difference is that the list of the WRs are "those ratified by the IAAF" whereas the top 10 lists seem to reflect certain editorial choices [but are not prefaced with any comment to that effect.]
It is interesting that T&FN is convinced enough that FloJo's 10.49 was windy that they editorialize about it in what is otherwise a straight list of ratified WRs.
Does anyone have a relevant issue of T&FN from 1993 or 1997 with coverage of the Chinese meets?
