Blessing Okagbare showed Jamaica’s world-beating sprinters a cleanpair of heels as she blasted clear of the women’s 100m field to win by more
than a tenth of a second from USA’s Tori Bowie in 10.98.
After her double victory here last year, the Nigerian again had the
Shanghai crowd gasping in appreciation as she pulled away from the
fast-starting Veronica Campbell-Brown in the second half of the race, towing
Bowie to her best of the year, 11.07.
Campbell-Brown faded to fourth behind Michelle-Lee Ahye of Trinidad
and Tobago who clocked 11.13 while double Olympic champion Shelly-Ann
Fraser-Pryce was never in it. The triple world champion finished fifth threee
hundredths behind Campbell-Brown in 11.25.
