World-class athletes and track-and-field medal winners at the Athens Olympics Games are likely to come to South Korea this month to compete in a one-day local athletics competition. The organizer of the 2004 Busan International Athletics Competition said on Monday that Olympic sprinting champions Maurice Green and Shawn Crawford have been included on the final entry list for its 100-meter event. According to an event official, sports watchers will have their first opportunity in 16 years to witness a high-profile local track-and-field match, following the competition between sprinters Carl Lewis and Ben Johnson during the 1988 Seoul Olympic Games. Shawn Crawford recently won gold in the 200-meter event at the Athens Olympic Games.
