NEW YORK : Zharnel Hughes produced the performance of his dreams to break Linford Christie's 30-year-old British record in the 100 metres on Saturday, winning at the NYC Grand Prix in 9.83 seconds.
American Christian Coleman, the world champion in Doha four years ago, settled for third place in 10.02. "When I looked at the clock and saw 9.83 - I don't know if you saw my reaction - but I was like 'What just happened there!' It actually came through. Manifestation is real." Hughes, who took silver in the 100 metres and gold in the 200 metres at the European Championships last year, told reporters he has"no expectations" for the worlds, with more work left to be done.
