Powell adds another sub-10sec

The question remains: when will Asafa Powell break his own world record?

At the World Athletics Final on Saturday Powell extended his winning run to 22 races and hit his 12th sub-10sec 100m of the season. Such has Powell’s dominance been that the performance almost looked flat. It was a 9.89sec time and 0.02sec winning margin from Leonard Scott with Tyson Gay another hundredth back.

He has equalled the world record twice but it now looks like he will have to return in 2007 with the same form as this year to lower his 9.77sec mark.

Jeremy Wariner ran 44.02sec in the 400m to remain unbeaten.
