Steve Ovett Receiving Sympathy from Sebastian Coe

(Original Caption) Britain's Steve Ovett, left, is consoled by teammate Sebastian Coe, after Coe won the Silver Medal in the 800m and Ovett finished last in the same race. Ovett was taken from the track shortly after this picture, then to Los Angeles hospital. A British team doctor said it is unlikely Ovett will be able to compete in his specialty, the 1,500m, an event he is the world record holder in.
