Athletics. Jamaican Jackson wins the 3rd best time in the history of 200m

Jamaican Sherika Jackson clocked a third time in the 200m in 21.55 seconds, winning her country’s athletics championship on Sunday in Kingston, where she delivered a big message to the competition three weeks before the World Cup. After his victory in the 100m on Friday, Jackson announced that he was running for the 200m, but he did not hide his surprise when he saw his time on the board, which was confirmed by the absence of wind. “Honestly, I’m shocked, I did not expect to go so fast, I knew it was in my legs, but to run so fast … I’m just grateful,” he said.

Only the late Florence Griffith-Joyner, whose world record (21.34) has been maintained since 1988, and Elaine Thompson-Hera, who ran 21.53 seconds at last year’s Tokyo Olympics, were faster than she turned. The 28-year-old sprinter surpassed her personal best time of 26/100, as did the 21.77-second MPM acquired by American Abby Steiner at the Eugene State Championships in Eugene a few hours ago. He defeated Olympic champion Thomson-Hera (22.05) and Shelley-Ann Fraser-Price (22.14).

In the men’s event, American Andrew Hudson won the 200m in 20.10 seconds, ahead of Johan Blake (20.31). Reigning Olympic champion Hansle Pergamen won the 110m hurdles in 13.14 seconds.
