Svetla DIMITROVA - Bulgaria - 100m Hurdles Gold at 1994 European Championships.

Svetla Dimitrova won the inaugural heptathlon competition at the 1986 World Junior Championships in Athletics and returned two years later to defend it at the 1988 World Junior Championships.

She broke the world junior record for the heptathlon at the 1989 European Cup with a score of 6534 points, but the mark was never ratified as she failed a doping test afterwards.

She was suspended for two years and returned in 1992.
