She ran in the fifth and final heat against seven other athletes, including Jamaica's Brigitte Foster-Hylton, and Dawn Harper of the United States, who later dominated this event by winning an Olympic gold medal. She finished the heat in seventh place by twenty-four hundredths of a second (0.24) behind Haiti's Nadine Faustin, with a slowest possible time of 13.49 seconds.
