Beverly McDonald (born 15 February 1970 in Saint Mary, Jamaica) is a Jamaican sprinter. Her accomplishments include winning the silver medal in the 4 × 100 m relay at the 2000 Olympics and the gold medal in the same event at the 2004 Olympics. She also won the bronze medal at the 2000 Summer Olympics in the 200 m race, after Marion Jones was disqualified in 2007 due to doping violations, although it would take until the 2024 Summer Olympics for McDonald to be presented with the actual bronze medal.[1] Beverly McDonald is the sister of Michael McDonald.
