Unhappy Powell
KINGSTON, May 15: Asafa Powell on Sunday reacted strongly to a report indicating Justin Gatlin, the man who eclipsed Powell's 100m world record, might not take him on at a June athletics meeting in England.
America's Gatlin, the world and Olympic champion, set the 100m world record of 9.76 seconds at the Qatar Super Grand Prix in Doha on Friday, eclipsing the 9.77 mark of Jamaica's Powell.
That raised the level of anticipation for the June 11 Grand Prix in Gateshead, where both were slated to run the 100m.
