Jamaica's Thompson runs blazing 9.77 in 100m
Briefly

My coach instructed me to just run the first 60, nothing more. After that I should just shut it down. If I came in second or third, I make the team. The goal wasn't to do anything, just to run a 70 or 60 and see where I am at.
Thompson's time of 9.77 was the fastest since American Fred Kerley won the 2022 world championships in 9.76 seconds. Thompson is now the fourth-fastest Jamaican in history, behind Bolt, Yohan Blake and Asafa Powell.
