LONDON - South African Akani Simbine pulled off something of a surprise in the London Diamond League 100 meters on Saturday, holding off local hope Zharnel Hughes and former world champion Yohan Blake to come home in 9.93 seconds.
Blake, the joint-second fastest man of all time with his 9.69 set in 2012, is getting back toward his best and continued his good season with third in 9.97 as the top five all broke 10 seconds. “It’s about getting through the races and winning them so by the time I get to world champs and I’m facing the rest of the world I’ll be ready and the confidence will be there and I’ll be able to believe in the work I’ve done.”
Jamaica’s Danielle Williams fired out the fastest time of the year in winning the 100m hurdles in 12.32 – a shade behind the world record set by American Kendra Harrision in the same meeting three years ago.“It has been coming all season and it was just about when,” said Williams. “This is a fast track and the fact that we get two opportunities because of the heats you can fix what you did wrong ready for the final.
“I’m definitely able to go under 13 minutes. I was hoping for a personal best, but a national record is even better,” Ingebrigtsen said.
