Hoping to win a pair of golds, Jones was shut out instead. An hour after she finished fifth in the long jum p. Jones was unable to make the handoff in the 400-meter relay when Lauryn W illiams left too early. W illiams was left grasping at air while Jones reached desperately for her teammate. "It was an extremely disappointing perfor mance for me. It exceeded my wildest dreams in a negative sense." Jones said. "I looked for great things this year. It didn't happen for me and it didn’t happen for the team this year." The U.S. relay team , w hich had taken gold for granted and was aiming for a world record, could only w atch as Jam aica won the gold in 41.73 seconds. R ussia won the silver medal in 42.27. France got the bronze at 42.54. Jones, running second, was close to the lead as she approached W illiam s. But Jones reached once, shouted "W ait up! W ait up!" as she reached a second tim e, then finally w as able to give the baton to W illiam s on the th ird attem p t - nearly ru n n in g into her younger team m ate. By then W illiams was already out o f the 20- meter handoff zone, which means automatic disqualification. As the race proceeded without them, Jones put her arm around Williams, the l(X)-meter silver medalist, and the two walked slowly to the end of the track. Jones clutched W illiam s’ hand tightly as the two left the track after the race, and tears trickled down Jones' face when she was asked later about her Olympic experi ence. “ It was a rough one," she said, breaking into more tears. "1 just couldn't get the baton to Lauryn. and it didn't happen today." United S tates' Marion Jones (right) and Lauryn Williams fail to connect on the baton handover leading to a disqualifica tion in the 4 x 100 meter relay finals at the 2004 Olympic Games.

Hundreds of athletes from many of the 202 countries that participated mingled in the cen ter o f the stadium and paraded their flags.
