In a stunning 200m at Luzern yesterday, Jamaican Jason Young, who finished last in this event at his country's national trials, lowered his personal best by more than half a second to win in 19.86, beating his Olympics-bound compatriot Warren Weir (20.11) and Rondell Sorillo of Trinidad (20.44). It was the third fastest 200m of the year!
Another Jamaican, world champion Yohan Blake, won the men's 100m with ease in a time of 10.85, ahead of compatriot Michael Frater and Trinidad's Marc Burns, both of whom clocked 10 seconds flat.
