Biography
In 1981 Olyslager started competing as a senior and won her first national title. In 1984, she set a national record in the 100 m hurdles at 13.20 s, but fell 0.02 s short of the Olympic qualification.[2] In May–August 1985 she improved that record four times, to 13.19, 13.07, 13.03, and finally 13.01 seconds.[3] She broke the 13 second barrier in June 1988, at 12.93 s and qualified for the 1988 Olympics. The same year she won a European silver in the 60 m hurdles with a time of 7.92 s, as well as the Memorial Van Damme in the 100 m hurdles (12.83 s). However, in the Olympic semi-final, she hit a hurdle, and with a time of 13.08 s did not progress to the final.[1][4]
After the Games she lost motivation for competitions.[4][5] In Winter 1988 she married Roel Wingbermühle, started working as a system analyst and paid little attention to training.[6] In 1989 she won a national 60 m hurdles title, and finished fourth at the European Indoor Championships and sixth at the World Indoor Championships, setting a new national record at 7.89 s. She retired in late 1989, but remained active as an athletics coach.[7]
