4:07pm Tuesday 19th August 2008
Christine Ohuruogu sank to her knees in disbelief on Tuesday night after becoming the first British woman ever to win the Olympic 400metres title.
Ohuruogu, who won the world title in Osaka last year, produced a storming finish to overhaul favourite Sanya Richards and win in a time of 49.62 seconds.
Richards tied up badly down the home straight and could only finish third behind Jamaica's Shericka Williams.
